Live Broadcasting occurs when encoding is from a live source and the encoded stream is being broadcast over the internet live at the time of encoding. A RealServer is required for live broadcasting with RealProducer G2. The RealProducer G2 can be used for live broadcasting so long as the hardware and drivers on the system support live broadcast encoding. If the system components do not support live broadcast encoding, there may not be an error message, but the live broadcast will not successfully occur. RealProducer G2 supports AVI and QuickTime.
Uncompressed files offer the best results.
RealProducer supports any size image from any video source, but it will automatically crop the height and width to multiples of 4. Input files are also required to be in 24-bit RGB color mode. For more information, please see the RealProduction Guide located in our Documentation library . No, RealProducer G2 cannot create content which can be streamed from a 5.x RealServer. To stream content from a 5.x server, the stream must be a 5.x compatible stream.
