Is it possible to have a FFMPEG ingest a WebRTC stream directly from the Wowza server? If so, what would be the format? I’m already successfully ingesting the RTMP streams generated from our Flash encoder, but not sure how I would connect to Wowza to pull down a WebRTC stream. Would transcoding be involved?

Thanks!
