Confused on services you offer

Hello, I’m looking for some clarity on what services you offer.

I have a kworld USB ATSC dvb tuner with an antenna attached to pickup some OTA channels. Can I use your program to convert the stream to an h.264 format m3u8/ts files for which I can then upload them to an external FTP server so I can access the channel/stream outside my home? Thx

Hello,

It’s likely you could accomplish your goals using Wowza Streaming Engine and a free encoder such as FFMPEG. Using FFMPEG on the server that has the dvb tuner, you should be able to pull the OTA video/audio into FFMPEG and push it via RTMP or RTSP to Wowza Streaming Engine for ingest. Then Wowza Streaming Engine can be used, instead of a FTP server, for redistribution of the stream via Live HLS or as recorded .mp4 files for on-demand distribution using Wowza Streaming Engine.

Best regards,
