Hi there, you will need an encoder on the Android device.

One option can be found here:

You can learn more about it from this forum thread:

i use on LG9 Video Broadcaster+ 1,03 - its free and work very well.

i tested this on HDSPA with resolution with 640\*480

on wowza engine tuen on a publisher, seta login and password.

on video Broadcaster, setup resolution, audio (on/off), and in Server put: rtmp://[login]:[passw]@[ip of your server]:[port]/live/[your strem, ex. test.stream]

after this, back to video, push red butto. then you will see yellow - try to connect, then green, when connections is OK.

Ofter this, you can esy looks at the stream by: rtmp://[ip of your server]:[port]/live/[your strem, ex. test.stream]

thats IT!

Enjoy!
