Using Deliver

The Deliver suite ingests video, transcodes it into multiple profiles, encrypts it and pushes it to Verizon’s Edgecast CDN.

This section provides information about unique Deliver features. Functionality common to all MIS sections has been documented in the previous section.

Slicer monitor tab

The Slicer prepares content for encoding and uploads it to the UpLynk CMS system. The page displays all UpLynk accounts and channels. Use the slide switch at the top of the page to hide encoders that have not been configured to upload to UpLynk CMS.

The first step is to enter the UpLynk credentials to create a new account.

Once the account has been configured, assign a Probe Encoder channel to UpLynk. This setting can only be changed when upload is disabled. Use the <Enable UpLynk> side switch icon to enable/disable program uplink.
