Streambox Cloud with Sessions Workflow: Best Practices, Part 2
2. Set LDMP settings on Cloud
A session's network settings are tied to the account that created the session. You can use the Accounts tab in the Cloud to add a sub-user (use the Operator level of access) who can have a different set of LDMP Network settings if you have a variety of streams going into the Cloud from your company.
The Default View Protocol Settings' controls the outbound stream characteristics from the cloud to the receiving Streambox Media Players and decoders.
Below are Streambox's suggestions for settings when streaming to wifi-connected media players such as iPhones/iPads. If you need high bitrate settings for other streams we suggest creating another sub-account with new LDMP settings.
As a general guideline: for iOS/wifi devices keep target bitrate at or below 12000kbps, and peak bitrate at 15Mbps.
To configure, log in to Streambox Cloud. Click on the Default Routing Protocol: LDMP Button under the Live tab
Recommended safe values are listed below
ACK Timeout set to 400

We estimate a 1-second latency with these settings in concert with settings on your Encoder, shown in a later section.
