Axis M7001 streaming issues

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

we are attempting a proof of concept for a larger project this summer, and I need a little assistance.

I have a Axis M7001 encoder running, no username/password. I am able to view directly with VLC with the address Rtsp://65.30.149.XXX:554/axis-media/media.amp?videocodec=h264

I installed Wowza on a windows 2008 R2 server, the demo VOD works fine so I assume that was installed correctly.

I followed the tutorial for restreaming video from an IP camera

I created a folder called Test in Wowzamedia server 3.1.0/applications.

Created a folder called Test in Wowzamedia server 3.1.0/conf

placed a copy of the Application.xml file from the tutorial into the Wowzamedia server 3.1.0/conf/test folder

created the file Wowzamedia server 3.1.0/content/camera.stream with notepad. Removed the .txt extension

In the file is Rtsp://65.30.149.XXX:554/axis-media/media.amp?videocodec=h264

Start wowza server

click Start recieving stream in the stream manager for test

rtp is selected

camera.stream entered in stream name box

get the WARN - SDP file missing: C:/Program Files (x86)/Wowza Media Systems/Wowza Media Server 3.1.0/content/Rtsp://65.30.149.XXX:554/axis-media/media.amp?videocodec=h264

Any suggestions?

Try StreamType “live” in Application.xml

Restart Wowza, test through, then zip up conf and logs and send to support@wowza.com

Include the .stream file.

Include a link to this thread for reference.
