Hi,

We would like to broadcast only video to the streaming engine. Calling MediaConfig.setAudioEnabled(false) seems to do the job (no audio from the player).

However, we would like to confirm whether this really prevent goCoder from sending any audio data? We would like absolutely no audio leaving the device.

Best regards,

Yogi

Hi Yogi,

Disabling the audio should prevent the GoCoder SDK from encoding the audio content and sending it on to the server instance. You can verify that there are no audio packets being received on your Wowza server by checking the access log file, and checking that the packetized stream is not seeing any audio packets in the stream (HLS is a good packetizer to use for debugging).
