Live Streaming
The RealPresence Capture Server system supports live streaming of video sources, such as live video
conference or dual stream sent by endpoints or MCUs with a highest resolution of 1080p and a maximum
bandwidth of 4M. Those live streaming videos are saved in the system.
Live streaming supports dual streaming rates; this allows you to choose the appropriate bandwidth to view
video based on your network condition.
Multi-bitrate Live Streaming
If the recording template is configured, the Capture Server system could send a specific resolution live
stream to low bandwidth sites and a higher quality resolution live stream to high bandwidth sites without
creating separate video broadcasts.

1 Configure the external media server on the RealPresence Capture Server system and enable live
streaming.
2 Configure a recording template that enables live streaming.
3 Configure a VRR that enables external media server.
4 Record a meeting using the VRR that has the external media server enabled.
