Use MediaCache for vod. Richard ---

There is a guide with the package. Also, the MediaCache.xml is already configured to stream from any http resource. You can provide rtsp out as usual. Richard ---

You are still trying to re-stream vod rtsp. Take this one step at a time. Install MediaCache as-is, don’t make any changes to /conf/MediaCache.html. Make sure you copied the jar file and have restarted Wowza. Put a video on a web server: ```auto http://[your-webserver]/sample.mp4 ``` Create an application named “mediacache”, add the property to Application.xml /MediaReader (as per instructions in the MediaCache guide): ```auto randomAccessReaderClass com.wowza.wms.plugin.mediacache.impl.MediaCacheRandomAccessReader ``` Test using SimpleVideoStreaming player: Server: rtmp://[wowza-address]:1935/mediacache Stream: mp4:http/[your-webserver]/sample.mp4 If that works, first make sure that your /conf/mediacache/Application.xml /RTP /Authentication /PlayMethod is “none”, then play in RTSP client like this: ```auto rtsp://[wowza-address]:1935/mediacache/_definst_/mp4:http/[your-webserver]/sample.mp4 ``` Richard ---

Correction: Server: rtmp://[wowza-address]:1935/mediacache Stream: mp4:http/[your-webserver-address]/sample.mp4 ```auto rtsp://[wowza-address]:1935/mediacache/_definst_/mp4:http/[your-webserver]/sample.mp4 ``` Richard ---
