Notes
NOTES: When testing multicast with your encoder, it's essential to ensure that the encoder and the related devices, such as a PC, are connected directly to the same switch instead of same router. This setup helps to optimize the network connectivity, ensuring that the multicast transmission is successfully distributed to the intended devices without interference. By connecting them directly, you can more effectively monitor and troubleshoot the multicast transmission and its reception.
