Live streaming setup

Live streaming is not supported via Summit. The IIS settings of each Summit client must be configured manually. (Note: Live streaming will only work on STRATUS clients that belong to the same network as the STRATUS/ISILON system.)

  1. Make sure live streaming is configured in AppCenter for the desired channels.
  2. Open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager on the Summit client:
    1. Click Start, click Control Panel.
    2. Click System and Security and then click Administrative Tools.
    3. In the Administrative Tools window, double-click Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
  3. Navigate to [Summit] > Sites > Default Web Site.
    1. Right-click and selecting Edit bindings.
    2. Click Add and enter the Summit name in the host name field.
    3. Leave the rest of the values in their default settings and click OK.
  4. Right-click on Default Web Site again and select Add Virtual Directory.
    1. Enter the Alias live.
    2. Set the Physical path as the live stream path (for example : \\S200.isi.YourDomain.com\media\live streaming). For more information about configuring the K2 Summit software and to place the .sdp files, see the Proxy/live streaming technical details topic. Note that the K2 Summit configuration places the .sdp files in the V:/live streaming directory, but here we place the files in the [for example] in the K2 Media Network (hi resolution) \\S200.isi.yourdomain.com\media and the Proxy Network (low resolution) \\S200.isi.yourdomain.com\proxy locations.
    3. Select Connect As and enter the specific user as the domain administrator used for the STRATUS and Summit services. (for example: yourdomain\gvadmin)
  5. Select the newly created “live” virtual directory.
    1. Double-click the MIME Types icon.
    2. Under Actions, click Add…
    3. Enter the File name extension .sdp.
    4. Set the MIME type as text/plain and click OK.
  6. Close IIS.

    You can now test live streaming on any STRATUS client that is on the same network as the STRATUS system.
