Help please!! I can't see the live streaming in Mac & iPhone & iPad

Wowza Streaming Engine

hi, I’m a new member, I was build a Wowza media server.

I use the adobe flash media live encoder 3.2 connect to server.

In windows system, I access the address: rtmp:10.17.133.222/live/livestream by FlashRTMPPlayer[in wowza examples LiveVideoStreaming],

the performance is very good.

In iPhone & iPad, I access the address: http://10.17.133.222:1935/live/livestream/playlist.m3u8 by IOSMacOSX[in wowza examplesLiveVideoStreaming],

It’s show “can’t load the movie”.

In Macbook[10.7.5], I access the address: http://10.17.133.222:1935/live/livestream/playlist.m3u8 by IOSMacOSX[in wowza examplesLiveVideoStreaming],

It’s show the live only 10sec, then turn to black, but the status is Playing. I wait for 5 mins, also show black.

My live encoder setting:

Video => Format: H.264, Frame Rate:12 , Size:320*240, bit Rate : 100 kbps

Audio => Format: MP3,bit Rate : 20 kbps

I try it more then 3 day.

Pls. help me.

Thanks a lot.

The LiveVideoStreaming examples do not work on iOS devices and don’t play playlist.m3u8 urls. Use HTML5 video tag, like this:

<html>
<head> 
  <title>cupertinostreaming</title>
</head>
<body>
<video controls src="http://[wowza-address]:1935/vod/sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8">
</video>
</body>
</html>

Hi,

As Richard said the example players do not support Cupertino streaming (Apple HLS).

Use the stream URL in the iOS device’s web browser

http://10.17.133.222:1935/live/livestream/playlist.m3u8

You can also try this URL in the VLC player which supports Cupertino streaming.

Thanks for your relay.

But my issue is I can’t see the live streaming in iOS & Mac only.

your code can see the movie in server.

when I use the code to see live streaming, it run 24 sec. only ,then turn to black.
