Configuring WHIP Outputs

WHIP (WebRTC-HTTP Ingestion Protocol) uses an HTTP connection to output WebRTC content to web browsers. WHIP provides wide scale, low latency live content distribution to a variety of devices without the need to incorporate additional applications on the receiving end.

To create a WHIP connection:

1. Make sure that the HTTP service is enabled. See Enabling and Disabling Network Services. 

2. Follow the steps in Setting Up Streams to set up the WHIP stream.

   

   Note

   The audio encoder Codec must be set to Opus. For details about configuring Opus audio, see Audio Encoder Settings. 

3. From the stream settings, select WHIP for the Protocol.

4. Configure URL
5. Configure 'Token' ??? 
6. Once you establish the WHIP stream, check the statistics and make adjustments to fine-tune the stream. On the Stream panel, click the Statistics icon

   

   to see how the SRT stream is performing.
7. Monitor the link statistics to see if the link is over-subscribed (and adjust the video encoder bitrate if it is). 
   For example, use the Max Bandwidth and (Buffering) Latency values to set the encoder bitrates appropriately.
