Hello there and welcome to the Wowza support forum.

First of all, can you confirm the stream source is “live” and that it has cupertino packetization enabled?

Next, what are the audio/video codecs of the source? As well as the “profile” setting?

Thank you,

Salvadore

just curious, since you are running this on a local address, are your ios devices connected to local wifi?

Hello,

To check if Cupertino Packetization is enabled: Please select a browser and input http://[wowza-ip-address]:8088

Application, select the Application you are using, Setup\> Edit\> Playback types “Apple HLS” Save\> Restart Application

If those devices are not on the same network, you will need to setup port forwarding in your router to your Wowza Server.

www.portforward.com

Also posting the codecs and profile you are using for your source, along with the error you are seeing when playing back the streams in iPhone/iPad will be helpful.

Regards,

JasonT

Thank you for your reply.I check the stream source,but…" it has cupertino packetization enabled",how to confirm it?

Are there some support article to teach me?
