Hello,

I am getting following errors when I am streaming a ts file to wowza.

At my encoder side I am using ffmpeg with command

ffmpeg -i testfile.ts -vcodec copy -an -f flv rtmp://192.168.1.2/rtplive/mpegts.stream

the testfile.ts is encoded with h264 & aac,a nd want to stream without reencoding video.

Wowza version: Wowza Media Server 2 Subscription 2.2.3.04 build26774

Hi Kapil,

It’s always good to get things working first with the included sample.mp4 file, in the Wowza content directory. Here’s an example of using ffmpeg to stream a file without transcoding:

```auto
ffmpeg -re -i sample.mp4 -acodec copy -vcodec copy -f flv rtmp://127.0.0.1/live/myStream

```

Take a look at the [FFmpeg with Wowza Server (MPEG-TS)](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-ffmpeg-with-wowza-media-server-mpeg-ts%28MPEG-TS%29) tutorial for more examples.
