I apologize if this is a stupid question. I have setup the Wowza media server to restream and Axis IP camera without issue. I am able to view the stream via vlc with the following URL rtsp://[wowza-address]:1935/live/camera.stream. Is there anyway to view the stream in IE? We have multiple cameras that I would like to have our admins be able to access via a url that we publish.
Thanks for your help
Use a Flash application in IE or other browser. Take a look at the LiveVideoStreaming example player. Here are other Flash players:

Also, Silverlight runs in the browser:

You can’t open a Wowza stream directly in any browser. You need a Flash or Silverlight player, or some other plugin.
You can modify live.html, but that is the html container for the player, which is the SWF file. The player source is the .FLA file.
You can use HTML5 in IPhone

Thanks for the response. I see in the example for an Apple IOS device you just need to point Safari to http://[wowza-address]:1935/live/camera.stream/playlist.m3u8 url. Is that type of functionality available in IE or Firefox? And in your example of of adobe flash player can you edit the live.html to fill in the server address and camera stream?
Thanks

Is it possible to modify the .fla file to have the server entry of our wowza server preloaded? And can you recommend some utilities to perform this function?
Thanks
