Hi All,
Currently I have a setup using a 2.4 and 5Ghz dual band router with two SDI to IP video encoders attached to the same LAN.
I'm doing a UDP multicast of a 1.5 Mbps video version from the first encoder and an 8 Mbps encoded version from the second.
There are about 6 or 7 iPads with VLC app that receive the stream around the area of the router. The router is not great and I'm constrained by hardware I can use.
Users can connect to either the 2.4GHz or 5GHz SSID to receive either stream (they open the low bit rate multicast on 2.4 and the high bit rate multicast on 5).
It seems to work reasonably fine in testing but there have been reports of jumpy video at times.
Just wondering does this setup seem OK? I have the option to use RTSP multicast as alternative.
I'm not sure if multicast is flooding the router?
Thanks
