Archiver

The archiver process uses Unified Capture (see Program Usage for further information) to create time based archive segments used by Remix.

Unified Origin - Live

Unified Origin - LIVE is used for Live playout, and for capturing / archiving.

Unified Origin - VOD nPVR playout

Unified Origin - VOD plays out content for nPVR by taking the remixed MP4 created by Remix and playing out all streaming formats.

Remix Origin

Based on a SMIL input, it compares the scheduled sources and produces a single remixed MP4 that is a representation of the playlist. Remix uses a set of heuristics to match tracks between separate input sources to enable the production of a seamless output presentation.

SMIL Origin

Creates a playlist based on a request URL.
