Once the (Provision)[/docs/red5-pro/development/api/transcoder/provisioning-transcoder] has been provided to the Stream Manager it is possible to start publishing. It is possible to publish in two different ways:

• Publishing the high level stream variant via WebRTC, RTMP or RTSP to a transcoder node to create multiple variants.
• Using an RTMP or RTSP media encoder to publish the different variants of the same stream directly to an origin node.
