I have been trying to live stream multiple sources with transcoder activated. Unfortunately transcoder feature is not working on more than one stream. When I play single stream it working absolutely fine. I need transcoder feature for ABR streaming.

Is there any option in wowza that I can overcome this limitation, I have monthly subscription and was not informed about any such limitation. This is my first month so I am not aware of any such limitation.

Please advice ASAP.

Regards,

Aamir

Hi,

Are you using a trial license? There is a limitation on the number of streams that can be transcoded when using a trial license. There is no limitation when you have a full subscription or perpetual pro license.
