To stream to protocols using http for delivery, check out the following: HDS [Flash HTTP](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-install-and-configure-wowza-streaming-engine#flashHTTP) HLS [Cupertino](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-install-and-configure-wowza-streaming-engine#cupertinostreaming) Check out the playback url format. ---

Sorry I missed that you were referencing a flv file. They are not supported for cupertino streaming to iOS devices. It has to be Quicktime (mp4, mov, m4v etc) container with h264 video and AAC/mp3 audio. However, for valid containers, you’ll want to add the following to your [HTTPStreamers property](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-video-on-demand-streaming#config) for iOS playback: cupertinostreaming Also Note that on the playback side (for cupertino) looks like: [http://wowza-ip-address:1935/vod/mp4:sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8](http://wowza-ip-address:1935/vod/mp4:sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8) ---

thanx matt\_y for the reply i have checked the url, but failed to do so. In the links posted by you mp4 file is used for http streaming, but i am using flv file for http streaming. (for the purpose i am using the page [install dir]\examples\VideoOnDemandStreaming\FlashHTTPPlayer\Player.html). In the the player.html i am giving stream = http://:1935/vod/flv:sample.flv Also tried stream = http://:1935/vod/sample.flv Here vod is the default vod application and sample.flv is also present in the [install dir]\content\ Also please tell me if any change is required in the “conf/application.xml” Or “conf/vod/application.xml” for http streaming please reply ---
