Video encoders are widely used in video transmission field. A live encoder is required in live broadcasting because the original video cannot be transmitted over the network as its large gigabytes. One-minute video can occupy several gigabytes of space. Video encoders are about video transmission which are implemented by software or hardware applications. A sdi or hdmi encoder broadcasts IP output over protocols of RTSP, RTMP, SRT, NDI protocols. 

Here are description for parts of network protocols:

Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) is a network control protocol designed for use in entertainment and communications systems to control streaming media servers. The protocol is used for establishing and controlling media sessions between end points.

Real-time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) designed for use in entertainment and communications systems to control streaming media servers. The protocol is used for establishing and controlling media sessions between end points.

Secure Reliable Transport (SRT) is an Internet transport protocol initiated by the SRT Alliance jointly created by Haivision and Wowza. It is an open source, free and flexible application specification. Its performance is as good as a proprietary protocol and can be used between different products. 

Network Device Interface (NDI) is a royalty-free software standard developed by NewTek to enable video-compatible products to communicate, deliver, and receive broadcast quality video in a high quality, low latency manner that is frame-accurate and suitable for switching in a live production environment.

Kiloview encoders have powerful streaming service function, in addition to supporting general protocols such as RTSP/RTMP/SRT, security Onvif protocol, SIP protocol, NDI protocol (customizable), GB/T28181 (customizable) support RTP/RTSP/RTMP/HLS/TS /Onvif/SIP/ SRT/NDI (customizable) / GB/T28181 (customizable) and many other international streaming service agreements. They are small and portable, low power consumption, support 7/24h operating conditions; support custom text, image overlay function, can be superimposed to any position on the screen.

Applications:Kiloview video encoders can be widely used in hotel TV system, live sports events, school teaching, distance learning, recording system, streaming Live Broadcast communication, online church, medical industry and more.
