您可以使用任何支持 Web 標準的裝置,如 PC、NB、智慧型手機、或平板電腦,透過網路,連結 魔納盒 Monarch HDX 控制中心進行操作或設定。為了能夠讓操作者易於使用,不但主控制提供一鍵操作,按下按鍵即可開始串流傳輸、錄製。而且,從任何地方都可透過使用者界面控制 魔納盒 Monarch HDX。魔納盒 Monarch HDX 在機體的按鈕上,也提供了方便的機制,可針對錄製或串流,直接停止或開始。還有另一個額外的按鈕,可方便控制分配輸入訊號。
強大和穩固,魔納盒 Monarch HDX 提供簡潔,一鍵串流、錄製之按鈕,輸入選擇和閉鎖式電源連接 。魔納盒 Monarch HDX 的 HDMI 或 SDI 輸出,可以很容易地監控串流和錄製。所有八路的嵌入音訊可以從任何輸入傳送到任何輸出。當選定嵌入式音訊,八路的嵌入音訊即可從輸入傳送到輸出。當選擇類比音訊,音訊則與嵌入視訊一起輸出。魔納盒 Monarch HDX 的設計可以是很容易定位在桌面上,也可以置放於機架,最多兩台魔納盒 Monarch HDX 可以容納於一個 1U 的托架上。存儲和控制鈕位於方便的機體前方,而電源和I/O端口位於機體後方。最後,魔納盒 Monarch HDX 還支援 9 到 24 伏的輸入電壓範圍。它可以使用 Matrox 提供的電源或直流電源供電,如標準的現場電池。
當魔納盒 Monarch HDX作為網路直播編碼器使用時,可生成符合 RTSP/RTMP 協議的 H.264 編碼。您可以分別指定每個通道提供你的需求格式及路徑。每個通道可提供最高可達 10MB/秒 的串流,讓你可以同步發送串流到兩個目的地,或針對單一設備的目的地發送可達 20MB/秒 的串流。
您的 VOD 隨選視訊的影像品質,並不是由上傳網路頻寬決定。魔納盒 Monarch HDX 雙路編碼器在固定 Bitrate 下,發布網路串流,同時錄製母帶品質的 H.264 文件並可即可供取用,就如 VOD 或 NLE 線上編輯檔案一樣。
無論你提供直播內容到 Adobe Flash、Wowza 媒體伺服器、任何時下流行的 CDNs 系統,或電腦,魔納盒 Monarch HDX 靈活的視訊串流協議都可輕鬆達成任務。魔納盒 Monarch HDX 已取得 Wowza 原廠認證,使用者能在魔納盒和 Wowza 串流引擎整合機制中獲得極大的便利。Wowza 管理者可提供 XML憑證文件,讓魔納盒 Monarch HDX能夠輕鬆地連接到 Wowza 串流引擎。魔納盒 Monarch HDX還支援 Flash 媒體直播編碼器,可生成 XML 文件。這些文件通常是由 CDNs 提供,讓他們的客戶能夠輕鬆地連接到他們的服務。這些 XML文件都可加載到 魔納盒 Monarch HDX 使用的 Matrox 控制中心 (Web 操作界面)。
魔納盒 Monarch HDX 直接在控制中心 UI上,提供一個非常有用的低 Bitrate 預覽。相同預覽畫面也可以使用播放軟體(如 VLC)或第三方裝置(如 Crestron 控制螢幕)。這串流提供兩路獨立預覽,可讓您在網上直播之前,確認您的視訊是否正確。
魔納盒 Monarch HDX 附帶了一些典型的串流和錄製預設,它定義了所有的編碼參數(包括解析度和 Bitrate )。不論是預設或自定參數,只需輸入一次,就會儲存為一個配置檔。配置檔不僅包含編碼參數也包含發送位址詳細資訊。如果該裝置用在不同的環境中,多個配置檔可以被儲存。每個配置文件可以即時加載,而無需重新輸入數據。
Matrox Utils 應用使操作者能夠遠程掃描,可搜尋在網路上的所有 魔納盒 Monarch HDX。 Utils 應用也將掃描連接 魔納盒 Monarch HDX。如果 Utils 應用有更新,會通知操作人員,自動更新設備,確保 魔納盒 Monarch HDX 上安裝了維持最新版本。Matrox Utils 應用還可以用於重新啟動網路上的 魔納盒 Monarch HDX 。
