Hello, i discover wowza server this week end and it look wondering.

after making some simple demo I do with success:

-Publish from as3 a webcam to wowza

-Read the stream from wowza in as3

But i cant do:

-Read the same stream in vlc with the rtsp url like the documentation says.

VLC open a stream thats its buffered, but no image and no sound. The codec information says H.163 and the read source entry say 0 kb but the demultiplex et bandwith it up to 100kb.

Its this manipulation supported by WOWZA?

No, it won’t work because the built-in encoder in Flash player does not support h.264 video, which is required.
