Hi all, I have a Wowza setup to stream live video (in H.264 format) and it worked perfectly on the iPhone by simply using a browser to point to http://:1935/live/stream.sdp/playlist.m3u8 What is the best way to play the same stream on an Android and Blackberry? Do I need to create a web page on the Wowza server and embed a rtsp link and ask Android/Blackerry users to visit the page and click on the link? Any easier way to accomplish this? Thanks. ---

You will need a RTSP link in a web page. Charlie ---

First, be sure you are using Wowza 2.2.4.01 or higher. Just upgrading if necessary might be enough. Otherwise it is most likely an issue with UDP ports. Follow this guide: [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-troubleshoot-rtsp-rtp-playback](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-troubleshoot-rtsp-rtp-playback)) Richard ---

Depending on the Android platform, it may require an external media player that has been registered in the browser as the handler for RTSP. ---

My Android device (Nexus One) doesn’t understand rtsp:// and tries to convert the URL to [http://www.rtsp.com/](http://www.rtsp.com/)… ? ---

Hi, First try to get your application working with the example players included with Wowza, such as: [Wowza]/examples/LiveVideoStreaming/clientOSMF/bin-release/LiveOSMFPlayer.html I tried and just heard white noise, no video. ---
