Host a live streaming server with multiple input and multiple output

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

I would like to create a website which provide a live stream interface.

It provides user a simple way to host live stream on several website like Facebook, YouTube.

I have an idea that the website give all users different RTMP port, and get their authentication on every website they want it on. Then we just need to make their own single live stream automatically show on the website with their APIs.

I now don’t know about how it could work and how make it work.

If there’s suggestion please let me know.

Thanks a lot!

You could build an interface (website) between your wowza server and your endpoints (customer websites). The customer logs in on your website and can manage the streams they have, username/passwords, application information, etc

on the backend you connect your website to the Wowza API to manage your streams

First of all, I have big problem to understand the usage of Wowza API.

I’ve tried to find out the documents I need, but until now I haven’t found it yet.

Second, as far as I know, Wowza API supports Java more than C#. Is it true?

If so, maybe I’ll change my website from C# to Java.

If there’s any suggestion, please let me know.

Thank you very much!

Im not sure what you are looking for. Didn’t you find the documentation? Here is information on the REST API: https://www.wowza.com/docs/wowza-streaming-engine-rest-api

it depends on you which programming language you want to use, as long as it supports HTTP requests.

To be able to use the API you have to do some changes on your server to be able to get access to your server.

Is this the information you are looking for?

I saw the documentation before, but I have no idea how to use in my program.

I think I should find the way to understand how to use the documentation you mentioned and to find out the APIs I need in the documentation.

I’ll try more on it.

Thanks a lot!

I am currently working with php, curl to “talk” to my wowza server. I didn;t get the api to work either on the wowza github page or from the knowledge base here.

although you have to open some ports on the wowza server and your webserver to be able to use the api. i still had some code saved from 2 years ago. That is still working :D. I have my own website where i will post it. Probably somewhere this weekend.

so i want to document the complete setup on how to setup your server and how to use the api calls.
