Create a Microsoft Smooth output group
When you planned the workflow for your channel, you might have determined that you want to include a Microsoft Smooth output group.
The procedure
-
On the Create channel page, in the Output groups section, choose Add.

In the Add output group section, choose Microsoft Smooth, and then choose Confirm. More sections appear:
-

Microsoft Smooth settings – This section contains fields for the container, the connection to the downstream system, and resiliency.
-
Microsoft Smooth outputs – This section shows the single output that is added by default.
-
Event configuration – This section contains fields for the destination of the outputs and thecontainer.
-
Timecode configuration – This section contains fields for the timecode in the outputs.
-
Sparse track – This section contains fields for the container.

-
If your plan includes more than one output in this output group, then in Microsoft Smooth outputs, choose Add output to add the appropriate number of outputs.
-
In Microsoft Smooth outputs, choose the first Settings link to view the sections for the first output:
-
Output settings – This section contains fields for the output destination, and the container.
-
Stream settings – This section contains fields for the output streams (the video, audio, and captions).

(Optional) Enter names for the output group and the outputs:
-
In Microsoft Smooth settings, for Name, enter a name for the output group. This name is internal to MediaLive; it doesn't appear in the output. For example,

In the Output settings section for each output, for Output name, enter a name for the output. This name is internal to MediaLive; it doesn't appear in the output. For example,

After you have finished setting up this output group and its outputs, you can create another output group (of any type), if your plan requires it. Otherwise, go to Save the channel.
