Along the right sidebar you will see protocol options for Program Inputs.
Finding a Program's Input Settings
Depending on the protocols your Project has turned on there will be details in the right sidebar. SRT is RePro's primary and preferred protocol. However RTMP, RTMPS and RTSP are also possible.
You can expand the Split SRT Input Details to see a breakdown of the parts required by most hardware and software to stream SRT into this program. Use the eye button
to view or use the copy to clipboard button
to be able to paste the detail wherever you need.
.
SRT input details include the domain (host), IP address - either can be used but one or the other may be required depending on your software or hardware.
SRT URL Format:
• srt://[hostname]:[port]?passphrase=[passphrase]
• Example: srt://lon2.repro.stream:1031?passphrase=xxx123yyy456zzz789
srt://- the protocollon2.repro.streamor81.144.250.132- the host domain or IP address10031- the input portxxx123yyy456zzz789- the passphrase

RTMP/RTMPS/RTSP take teh form of a URL but some software and hardware require this to be broken down into parts.
RTMP URL Format:
• rtmp://[username]:[password]@[hostname]:[port]/[app]/[streamID]
• Example: rtmp://user:[email protected]:1935/live/stream123
Breakdown of RTMP URL:
rtmp://Ga8rtOna:[email protected]:9001/89_13/3b908771-69a5-11ee-a757-72cebd02efcf
This consists of:
rtmp://- the protocolGa8rtOna:vCTwvjdwIMB9m39mPg5JiXxYH9K6pkjq- consister of a colon : separated user and password@lon2.repro.stream:9001- consists of a colon : separated hostname and port (9001 for RTMP in this case)89_13- RTMP app3b908771-69a5-11ee-a757-72cebd02efcf- is the streamID

If you can - use the domain based host details - this way if there is ever need for the streaming server to have an IP change then it will not effect your connected hardware or software.
Depending on the hardware or software that is streaming the video, you need to either include or omit the srt:// at the beginning of the Input URL - for example with a Teradek Prism you will need to make sure not to use the srt://otherwise the stream will not connect.
