./encode_modulate.sh
  • Jetson nano : Encode from Picamera V2 or transmodulate from an incoming IP transport stream
./jetson_nano.sh
  • All : Modulate from an incoming IP transport stream
./encode_modulate.sh

Please inspect each script, parameters are mainly self documented.

In order to decrease USB bandwidth and have better signal quality, a special Firmware is available.

In order to use this mode you should prior flash it,
