Hello,
I’ve been trying to set the Wowza media server for live re-destribution of 10 channels to my webapp. I’ve gone through the documentation and forum questions, but didn’t solve the problem. The problem is that i cannot receive the multicast stream.
First i created sdp file and i bind the multicast address.
v=0^M
s=Unnamed^M
c=IN IP4 234.168.214.3
m=video 5006 RTP/AVP 96^M
a=rtpmap:96 H264/90000^M
a=fmtp:96 packetization-mode=1;profile-level-id=420016;sprop-parameter-sets=Z0IAFukBQHsg,aM4BDyA=;^M
Wowza reads the sdp file but keeps restarting all the time. The output is:
INFO server comment - RTPMediaCaster.Reconnector[562938290:live/_definst_:teststream]: start: 1
INFO server comment - VHost.startStartupStreams: Stream successfully started [live/_definst_]: mp4:teststream

INFO server comment - MulticastTransport.unbind[live/_definst_]: 234.168.214.3/5007 sent:0 recv:0
In the Application.xml file the AppType is live.
Next i tried with stream files. In my teststream.stream file the url address is: rtp://234.168.214.3:5006
I connect to the stream, but the status is:Waiting for the stream and doesn’t change to Active. The Wowza output is: SDP file missing: /usr/local/WowzaStreamingEngine/content/rtp://234.168.214.3:5006
But when i changed the protocol from the encoder to UDP, and the url in the teststream.stream to udp://234.168.214.3:6971, the status is Active and the output is:
INFO server comment - RTPMediaCaster.create[775949951]

INFO server comment - UDPPortSharingManager.unbind[live/_definst_:true]: 234.168.214.3/234.168.214.3:6971
… and keeps restarting.
In the Application.xml file in the / tag i added the following:
rtpDePacketizerWrapper
com.wowza.wms.rtp.depacketizer.RTPDePacketizerWrapperReChunkMPEGTS
… but this didn’t change anything.
I can receive the stream with vlc with no problems through RTP. I also checked with Wireshark and i can see the packets floating from source to destination address.
Please for advice,
Regards
