SRT Listener Egest

id

A unique identifier for the component instance

displayName

The name shown in the Studio UI of this component

port

The port this SRT output will listen on (default: 5101)

<COMPONENT_ID>_PORT

<COMPONENT_ID>_WRITETHROUGHFILE

passphrase

Optional: Authentication for this SRT output

<COMPONENT_ID>_PASSPHRASE

streamId

Optional: StreamId to use when calling a remote listener

socketOptions

Whether to rollover the file and when to do it (default: {"type":"none"})

receiveLatency

The latency value in the receiving direction of the socket (SRTO_RCVLATENCY)

peerLatency

The latency value provided by the sender side as a minimum value for the receiver (SRTO_PEERLATENCY)

audioFramesPerPes

The most audio frames that go in each PES packet. Fewer frames sends the audio sooner, in smaller and more evenly spaced pieces, so a receiver can play it out with a shorter buffer; more frames costs less bitrate in headers and padding. Left unset the engine packs 16, about a third of a second of 48kHz AAC per burst - which on its own exceeds some contribution latency budgets. Set 1 for lowest latency at a few percent more bitrate. Larger values save only around 1% more, and are capped in practice at about half a second of audio, because the engine also releases audio once its oldest frame is the PCR delay (500ms) old. (default: 16)

flushPartialPackets

Send each chunk's leftover TS packets straight away instead of holding them until there are enough to fill a whole 1316-byte payload. That wait is for bytes, not frames, so on a low-bitrate or audio-only output it costs about 70ms at 128kbps no matter what audioFramesPerPes is set to. Turning this on removes it, for under 1% more bitrate in headers — but the payloads are then no longer all the same size, which some receivers dislike. Little to gain on a stream with real video bitrate. (default: false)

kind

"etr290"

bitrate

Overall transport stream bitrate (bits per second)

pcrIntervalMs
