The protocol Panel

This panel controls the available "outputs" of MistServer. All protocols enabled here will be available for all configured streams (see the streams panel for more on configuring streams).

By default, all protocols that do not require any settings are enabled.

You can add a new protocol by clicking the "new protocol" button on the top right, and picking one from the drop down list that shows up. Each protocol has its own optional and required configuration parameters that are explained on the page itself. A particularly useful option that is present for all protocols is the "debug" option which allows you to set the debug verbosity level. The default is 3, which will print all production-level messages. Lowering the level to 1 or 2 can be useful for very busy servers, or raising the level to 4, 5 or 6 can be very useful when trying to find out why a particular protocol has issues. The debug level can also be set globally on the General panel.

Inputs

Some protocols could also serve as an input protocol. When these are set up they will become available as a push input. Push inputs are explained at stream settings
