Streaming question

Is it possible to stream two signals with the mairlist built in encoder? This is what we need - we stream the signal to a location B where it is processed via external processor and streamed via private link. How can i pick up that stream and make it public with the Mairlist?

I don’t think this is possible.

And anyway, isn’t that second part only just an ordinary “transcoding” kind of task?

It is. But I have no idea how to do it in any other way

Only way I can think of making that work, would require a second machine with mAirList picking up the stream using a Stream container (I’ve used them, and they’re genius), and then re-encoding that back out via the encoder in mAirList.

But that is kinda clunky, and also the degrading of the audio quality due to encoding > streaming > processing > encoding > streaming > receiving > encoding and finally sending to your streaming server is crazy to say the least. Surely having the processor in house is much simpler, and not to mention less prone to network outage and latency.

Just a thought.

Thanks Matt,

That is one of the options we were looking at… but using just a regular encored and reversing the stream… however, the latency is too big.
