Working with SMPTE 2022-6

Elemental Live supports sources that are compliant with the SMPTE 2022-6 standard. The Elemental Live implementation of SMPTE 2022-6 provides an effective way to handle uncompressed video content. SMPTE 2022-6 uses standard IP networking to receive content, which means it uses a cheaper and more readily available network infrastructure than the traditional SDI protocol.

Elemental Live supports redundant inputs using SMPTE 20227, and non-redundant inputs.

With SMPTE 2022-6, the video, audio, and ancillary data are muxed into one feed. Compare this design to SMPTE 2110, where the content is each in a separate essence.
