Hi, RTSP Server was down so it was giving time out. Now its giving successfull connection. When I entered the rtmp and rtsp url in nativertplive example app and press the play button its giving following information in wowza server console but its not generating any stream in content folder. Which I think it should write. this is the information which its giving when I pressed the play button. * * * INFO server comment - MediaStreamMediaCasterPlay: startPlay INFO server comment - RTPMediaCaster.create INFO server comment - RTPMediaCaster.init INFO server comment - RTPMediaCaster.Reconnector: start INFO server comment - RTPSessionDescriptionDataProviderBasicRTSPWorker.buildSDPD ata: sessionId:1512966599 sessionTimeout:60000 INFO server comment - RTPSessionDescriptionDataProviderBasic.getStreamInfo: RTSP /RTP re-streaming.
