Add custom image quality settings

If a separate image quality setting is required in addition to the system image quality settings, a custom image quality setting can be added.
To add an image quality setting, follow these steps:

  1. In the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to i_menu > Services > Media > Live Station.
  2. Navigate to Quality Management > Quality Setting.
  3. Click the [Add image quality settings] button.
  4. Enter the name for the custom image quality to be created, and configure the image quality.
    • The image quality setting name can only be entered using a combination of English letters, numbers, and -.
    • Click i-livestation_minus/i-livestation_plus to set the number of image qualities to configure for the custom image quality.
      • You can set a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 4.
    • Click the [Select] button, then in the image quality setting popup window that appears, select the image quality and click the [OK] button.
  5. Click the [Next] button.
  6. After specifying the detailed settings for the custom image quality, click the [Next] button.
    • HLS streaming settings: Select between HLS and Low Latency HLS.
      • If HLS is selected, set the Segment Duration and Segment Count.
      • If Low Latency HLS is selected, the Target delay is fixed at 3 seconds.
    • HLS ID3 Timed Metadata settings: Set whether to insert ID3 timed metadata in HLS TS files.
      • If insert is set, the insert frequency of timed metadata is fixed at 1 second.
  7. Check the configuration, and then click the [Add image quality settings] button.

Change default HLS settings

To change the HLS settings for a custom image quality, follow these steps:

Caution

When changing the settings, streaming of all broadcasts using the corresponding image quality setting is stopped and then restarted. To avoid this, change the image quality settings after all broadcasts that used the corresponding image quality settings are finished.

  1. In the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to i_menu > Services > Media > Live Station.
  2. Navigate to Quality Management > Quality Setting.
  3. Click the image quality setting of the HLS settings you want to change, then click the [Change default HLS settings] button.
  4. After changing the settings, click the [Edit default HLS segment settings] button.
    • The changes to the selected image quality setting will be reflected in all channels using the setting.

Delete custom image quality settings

To remove a custom image quality setting, follow these steps:

Note

You cannot remove the quality settings that are in use on the channel. To remove an image quality setting in use, first return the channel that is using the setting (see Return channel).

  1. In the NAVER Cloud Platform console, navigate to i_menu > Services > Media > Live Station.
  2. Navigate to Quality Management > Quality Setting.
  3. In the list of image quality settings, click to select the image quality setting you want to delete, and then click the **[Delete setting] **button.
  4. In the custom image quality settings deletion popup window, click the [Delete] button.
    • The selected image quality setting will be removed from the list.
