Integration with VLC Player to view RePro Stream Programs

VLC is an excellent tool for testing and viewing your SRT output streams.

Setting up VLC for SRT Broadcast

  • Open VLC player and click the FILE option at the top. Then select OPEN NETWORK...

VLC media player File menu with Open Network highlighted in red for adding a stream URL
  • A window will appear to set up playing from a Network Source.

  • Make sure the Network tab is selected, enter the full SRT URL found in your Program Output settings and click OPEN.

Note: Usually RePro input ports start with a 1 e.g. srt://lon1.repro.stream:10095

and output ports start with a 2 e.g. srt://lon1.repro.stream:20095

Make sure you use the right port in the URL – make sure you are using the output URL for viewing and the input URL for broadcasting into RePro.

You should now be viewing your RePro Program's SRT Output.
