Hi,

Does Wowza for Amazon EC2 support different character set in the filenames? I have some media files that have file names in Korean. Will Wowza have issue streaming that…?

Thanks!

It works, we tested recently with Chinese characters in video file name.

You will want to uncomment this line in /conf/log4j.properties:

#log4j.appender.[appender].encoding=UTF-8
