How to Connect an Extra Camera Using SRT

An extra camera can be delivered to Live Now over a local network using SRT, depending on the available feature set and sender compatibility.

Requirements

  • Live Now version with Extra Camera / SRT support
  • A compatible SRT sender
  • Devices connected to a reachable network

Step-by-step guide

  1. Open Extra Camera or the corresponding SRT input feature in Live Now.
  2. Check the listener address and port displayed by the app.
  3. Configure the sender to connect to that listener address and port.
  4. Start the sender, then verify that Live Now receives the picture.
  5. Test reconnection, audio and latency before going live.

Important notes

  • A typical configuration uses an SRT listener, but use the actual address and port shown in your app.
  • Firewalls, Wi-Fi isolation and unstable networks can prevent the connection.
