Stream capacity and maximum resolutions

The table below describes the maximum stream capacity for a given Recorder based on bit rate, frame rate, and resolution. Similarly, it indicates the maximum video resolutions that a Recorder can handle based on its determined stream capacity. Also included are a Recorder’s video inputs and the maximum amount of inputs that can record at one time.

Stream weights

Use the tables below to determine which encoding profile to use in respect to a Recorder’s given stream capacity. The numbers below each column represent the stream weight of each bit rate and resolution. Stream weight measures the number of Mediasite compute units needed to encode a stream via the Hardware Recorder.

Cross-reference this stream weight table with the Stream Capacity table above for your respective Recorder model. Stream weights are additive and cannot exceed a Recorder’s stream capacity.
