Procedure to create an RTMP output group

Follow these steps to create an RTMP output group and its output.

To create an RTMP output group and its output

1. On the Create channel page, under Output groups, choose Add.

2. In the Add output group section, choose RTMP, and then choose Confirm. More sections appear:

   • RTMP settings – This section contains fields for the connection configuration, for resiliency, and for captions.

   • RTMP outputs – This section shows the single output that is added by default. An RTMP output can contain only one output, so don't click Add output.

3. In RTMP outputs, choose the Settings link to view the sections for the output:

   • RTMP destination – This section contains fields for the output destination.

   • Output settings – This section contains fields for the connection configuration.

   • Stream settings – This section contains fields for the output streams (the video, audio, and captions).

4. (Optional) Enter names for the output group and the output:

   • In RTMP settings, for Name, enter a name for the output group. This name is internal to MediaLive; it doesn't appear in the output. For example, Sports Game.

   • In RTMP output, in Output settings, for Output name, enter a name for the output. This name is internal to MediaLive; it doesn't appear in the output.

5. To complete the other fields, see the topics listed after this procedure.

6. After you have finished setting up this output group and its single output, you can create another output group (of any type), if your plan requires it. Otherwise, go to Save the channel.
