Getting started with SW Encoder

An introduction to stations, audio capture, encoding, outputs, and metadata.

SW Encoder is a Windows broadcast encoder designed around independent station pipelines.

A station brings together an audio source, encoding configuration, one or more streaming outputs, and optional metadata handling. Configure the station, select the correct audio device and codec settings, add the required destination, then start the station and verify the connection and audio meters.

During initial setup, make one controlled change at a time so any connection or audio problem is easier to isolate.
