Delay in playing video using RTSP for about 30 minutes from WOWZA Server.

Wowza Streaming Engine

We have a WOWZA 4.7.4 Server and we have a video input feed using AMLE 3.2 using H.264, frame rate 25, Input 1280 x 720 and 1500 KBPS and keyframe at 5 .

We have also given an option in ALME: Auto Adjust: Drop frames.

We have to display this video over internet over at second location in near real-time. Since RTMP has significant delay of 3-5 seconds, we are using command:

ffplay -probesize 32 -fflags nobuffer -framedrop rtsp://[server]:1935/live/live.

This video display starts fine but after about 30 minutes of usage there is a delay of about 10 seconds.

To give real time effect, we have to cancel the command and start again. But this can not be done in real time as the feed is to be seen un-interrupted.

Any suggestions, overcome the same.

Will playing with VLC make any difference?

Hello,

Thanks for contacting the Wowza Community.

One setting that can be adjusted is the keyframe interval. Can you update that to be 1 or 2 seconds?

Can you also confirm you have low latency checked on the application setup page?

regards,
Jermaine
