Hi everyone!

I execure command ffmpeg to stream one file mp4 ( h264 or h265) follow: (RTSP Sources : Open (no authentication required))

ffmpeg -re -i inputvideo.mp4 -strict -2 -f rtsp rtsp://35.163.219.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp

I played on wowza streaming enginemanager with test player.

MPEG DASH: [http://ip:1935/live/myStream/manifest.mpd](http://ip:1935/live/myStream/manifest.mpd)

Adobe RTMP:

server : rtmp://ip:1935/live ; stream : myStream

or

server : rtmp://ip:1935/live ; stream : myStream.sdp

or

server : rtsp://ip:1935/live ; stream : myStream

or

server : rtsp://ip:1935/live ; stream : myStream.sdp

Adobe HDS:

[http://ip:1935/live/myStream/manifest.f4m](http://ip:1935/live/myStream/manifest.f4m)

Then, i play on vlc with rtsp://35.163.219.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp, but not open

Howerver, all cann’t run.

How to play it? Or have error?

Thanks all 🙂

Hi,

I would recommend you read the following article [here](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-configure-vlc-media-player-for-rtsp-rtp-playback-rtsp-rtp-interleaved-and-tuning).

The article explains how to configure the VideoLAN VLC media player to stream live or on demand streams through RTSP/RTP over TCP (RTSP/RTP interleaved).
