QuestionHelp - Moving from Encoder 9 to Expression Encoder 3: Multi Publishing Points.

    I'm trying to update my code for the new Expressions 3, and I can't seem to get the same functionality out of 3 as i did with 9.

    I'm not able to get the SDK to Push to a publishing point on a remote server, and broadcast at the same time. I have one feed, that i'd like to push to a remote server and broadcast. This is possible in WME 9, but not that i can see in EE3.

    If anyone can shine some light on the matter, that would be much appreciated.

    I just use the IWMEncBroadcast to broadcast out, and set everything up and call PrepareToEncode on my encoder object, and that will open up port 8080 on the encoder so i can open windows media player and go directly to the encoder object ("http://servername:8080") and see the feed, while the same feed is being pushed out to the remote server...

    Is there a way to do that in EE3?

    This is possible to do in the Windows Media Encoder 9 User Interface. In WME9, it allows you to check both Broadcast and Publish. However, in Expression Encoder 3, it has a ratio box that only allows you to choose Broadcast OR Publish, but not both.

    Thanks!
    Dim _EncBroadcast As IWMEncBroadcast
    
    _EncBroadcast.PortNumber(WMENC_BROADCAST_PROTOCOL.WMENC_PROTOCOL_HTTP) = _BroadcastPort
    
    _Encoder.PrepareToEncode
