Set up the video encode

In Configure outputs, you created the output groups and outputs that you identified when you planned the MediaLivechannel. Each output section contains a Stream settings section. You must now create all the video encodes.

General procedure

Follow this general procedure to set up the video encode.

1. Decide how you're going to create each encode:

   • From scratch.

   • By sharing an encode that already exists in this output or another output in the channel.

   • By cloning an encode that already exists in this output or another output in the channel.

   You might have already made this decision. If not, you should decide now. For more information, see Design the encodes.

   You can share or clone video encodes from one output to another in the same output group, or from one output to an output in another output group.

2. Read the appropriate sections that follow.
