The full list of Changes in Flussonic Media Server 23.05

• #23469 (new) (UI) The list of all video devices like DVB/ASI/ATSC/ISDB/SDI cards discovered by Flussonic is now displayed on the "DVB Cards" tab to facilitate the process of setting up such cards in Flussonic for you.

• #27734 (new) (Flussonic) Added the bind_ip option of the srt2:// input to set the IP address of the interface that is in use for SRT ingest. This option is useful when you can accept SRT only on certain interfaces, e.g. on Flussonic Coder.

• #29366 (new) (Flussonic API) The list of video devices like DVB/ASI/ATSC/ISDB/SDI cards detected by Flussonic is now returned in the private field video_devices of the GET /config/stats request.
