Notes
|
| /Root/Application | limitPublishedStreamBandwidthMaxBitrate | Integer | 800 | Maximum bitrate, in kilobits per second (Kbps), that's allowed for any publisher. Setting to 0 disables bandwidth checking. (default: 800) |
| /Root/Application | limitPublishedStreamBandwidthDebugLog | Boolean | true | Enables or disables extra logging. (default: false) |
Usage
The ModuleLimitPublishedStreamBandwidth module enables you to configure a maximum bitrate for an application. When an RTMP stream is published to the configured application, it's monitored continuously to ensure its bitrate stays within the set limit. If the stream bitrate exceeds the limit, the RTMP source is disconnected.
