• The video encoded by the KA-DV350 is so designed that it is displayed in a correct aspect ratio by personal computer monitor. When the CF played­back video is viewed by video-out connector output of the GY-DV300 or observed on a LCD screen, the aspect ratio may look different. This is because a simple output is made on the video for a personal computer and is therefore normal and not a malfunction.
• When PLAY MODE in the MOVIE CLIP SETUP screen is set to “REPEAT”, repeat playback is performed. (
page 20)
• This feature is for the easy checking of MOVIE CLIP contents. Although video or audio may stop during the middle of playback depending on the operational environment, this is not caused by an abnormality in the MOVIE CLIP itself. After checking, playback the MOVIE CLIP with the viewer software for the used environment (such as Streamproducer, Windows Media Player, etc.).

Name of a device (not limited to a computer but all connection devices with an IP address) on a network.
IP address
Identification number assigned to each computer that is connected to a network. The address is used for communication between network devices.
Global IP address:
Just as different IP addresses are needed on a network, all PCs using the Internet worldwide must use a unique IP address. This IP address is referred to as “global IP address”. Normally, the global address is assigned by the IS provider.
Local IP address:
In an environment not connected to the Internet (within a household, within a company, etc.), separate IP addresses can be used freely within a network. This IP address is referred to as “local IP ad­dress”.
IP addresses are categorized into 3 classes
depending on the number of PCs structur­ing a network.
“Class A IP addresses” are used for large-scale networks, “Class B IP addresses” are used for medium-scale networks and “Class C IP ad­dresses” are used for small-scale networks. Within a network, all IP addresses must be of the same class. Each IP address is structured by a series of 4 digit numbers separated by a period. The first number of the IP address indi­cates the class.
* “224 ~ 255” are normally not used for IP addresses.
For example, a network structured by a few PCs to dozens of PCs would use Class C IP addresses. Normally, the following special IP addresses are used when structuring a network.
Port number
Number used for detecting applications and service during TCP/IP communication.
TCP/IP
Abbreviation for Transmission Control Pro­tocol/Internet Protocol and is one of the pro­tocols used during network connection.
UDP
Different from TCP, UDP is a low-level pro­tocol that does not perform receive checks. In some cases, missing and distorted im­ages may occur due to packet loss.
About proxy server
A proxy is a “relay point” for accessing the Internet. When enabling “Use a proxy server”, the proxy server will make access to the Internet. Since various access information is cached at this time, downloading will be faster when reloading the same information from the Internet since the data is loaded from the proxy server.
Class
Class A
Class B
Class C
Application (number of PCs structuring the network)
For large-scale networks (max. approx. 16 million units)
For medium-scale networks (max. approx. 65,000 units)
For small-scale networks (max. approx. 120 units)

1. Introduction
Streamproducer is JVC’s complete streaming software that allows you to stream in a local network or to the Internet from any one of up to four sources. These sources can be any combination of MPEG-4 movie files or JVC’s Streamcorders, In addition, Streamproducer will also support future products from JVC, such as streamcorders, VTRs, etc.
Streamproducer allows you to monitor live video from up to four sources, as well as the video that is being cast to the Internet. When casting, you can switch between the four sources by simply pointing and clicking with your mouse.
Streamproducer also allows you to capture the MPEG-4 stream, (record to disk) from any or all of the video sources independently, as well as saving the cast video stream.
1.1 What is ‘Casting’ or ‘Streaming’?
First of all, casting and streaming are synonymous; they both mean the same thing and these terms will be used interchangeably throughout this manual. So, what is streaming? Video streaming implies the continuous delivery of video & audio in a single direction, from sender to receiver. Streamproducer is a publishing point; it receives MPEG-4 streams generated by any one of up to four sources, such as the GY-DV300 streamcorder or other streamcorders and casts (sends) Microsoft compatible ASF MPEG-4 streams to up to ten media players (receivers) anywhere in the world, through a LAN or the Internet.
Also by nature, streaming implies a high degree of compression so that many users can share the bandwidth. With Streaming, the quality is proportional to the bit rate…and the bit-rate is what makes streaming so desirable. Streaming is content delivery to the masses!
