8.1 Add ASI and IP inputs
8.1.1 Adding ASI inputs
Go to Inputs, and click on ADD NEW INPUT. Select ASI in the drop down list for Input type.
Type a name for your ASI input. Select the Physical port from the drop down list. Port 1 is the
top BNC 1 connector, port 2 is the lower BNC 2 connector. Click the “yellow tick” to save
the settings. Note that byte mode (188/204) is auto-detected.
Note: with software 2.4.3 in Chameleon, and SW2.3 in the GT11 in GN50, you can configure streaming between
Chameleons installed in a GN50 without the GNSTR Software Option, see more in §9.8
8.1.2 Add single IPTV input
Go to Inputs, click ADD NEW INPUT. Select IPTV in the drop down list for Input type list. Select Creation mode
Single, type a name for your new IPTV input.
1. Select Bitrate mode:
a. CBR Automatic (auto-detects the incoming
constant bit rate)
b. CBR Manual (manual setting of constant bit
rate in)
c. VBR (Variable bit rate in)
2. Select Network interface. If no network interface is
available, you can use the link Manage interfaces. More
information about Network Interfaces are given in §13.1
3. Select Routing scheme, Multicast or Unicast:
a. For Multicast; enter the Multicast address and Port
b. For Unicast: enter the Port (address will be the same as the IP address of the streaming interface
selected)
The Source address can be used for differentiating between 2 incoming IP streams with the same Multicast
address. If this differentiation is not needed, leave the Source address at the default 0.0.0.0.
4. Click the “yellow tick” to save the settings.
ASI inputs automatically
detect the incoming bit rate
and packet length.
