Hello, I know that Android has limitations as a livestream receiver. What is the best way to support Android with Wowza Streaming Cloud? In my tests I always had to install something like VNC on the devices I want to play a livestream with. I also set every transcoder rendition to H.264 baseline…

Android compatibility

Hei Paul,

no problem, thank you for your answer.

Yes, Androids for Livestreams are a disaster…

On A Nexus 4 with Android 5.x? the stream doesn’t play in Chrome only in VLC. Chrome always asks for an App to playback the (HLS) stream.
