    HX Pass through is a function that takes the encoded HX frames and forward that into the SRT stream. This means that there are no encoding or decoding done by BirdDog Cloud. This allows for lower latency, but a lot less cpu usage on the Endpoints.

    Click the "SRT Bitrate" field. Default is 10Mbps, this is the most the SRT tunnel is allowed to use so please set this according to what bitrate you are sending and allow for at least 25% overhead. This does not mean that the SRT tunnel will take up this much, it is just how much it is allowed to use.
