Apply all necessary steps from R Consulting Appliances Installation, Initial configuration checklist first.

Transcoder Appliance configuration checklist

  1. Configure routing table for multicast sources: tell the OS on which network interface/VLAN source multicast signal will arrive. Sample configuration: add

    static_routes="mcast200 mcast201"
    route_mcast200="-net 239.0.200.0/24 -iface vlan200"
    route_mcast201="-net 239.0.0.0/21 -iface vlan201"

    to /etc/rc.conf.d/routing (or /etc/rc.conf) and execute service routing restart; consult with man rc.conf for more information;

  2. Allow segment uploads initiated from this host towards the storage server. Append transcoder’s source IP address to /etc/rcons/hls-sources.list configuration file on the storage server. After this change restart HLS publishing point web-service with sv restart /etc/rcons/service/iptvws (again, on the storage server).
