Hello, I want to stream a radio station to wowza. I want to stream it through RTSP (Not RTMP) to work on mobiles. I use Flash media encoder to broadcast RTMP connection. What encoder should I use to generate RTSP. I tried VLC to make SDP file but I failed.

Thanks

Hi

It doesn’t matter what the source protocol is, Wowza allow RTSP clients to connect if configured to do so.

Tutorial for RTMP encoder is here, and playback using RTSP is in the list,

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-streaming-using-an-rtmp-based-encoder#playback](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-streaming-using-an-rtmp-based-encoder#playback)

If you want to use a .SDP file the tutorial for that is here,

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-streaming-using-a-native-rtp-encoder-with-sdp-file](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-streaming-using-a-native-rtp-encoder-with-sdp-file)

If you publish a stream named “myStream” to rtmp://myserver/station using FMLE, the RTSP playback URL will be:

rtsp://myserver/station/myStream

This is covered in this tutorial:

ABR (Adaptive Bit Rate) streaming is not support for RTSP clients using Wowza.

It is support for HTTP and Flash RTMP clients. This is covered in that tutorial also.

Sorry, but is there any simpler tutorial about RTSP clients , I read the links you gave to me but I still do not know how to make wowza stream RTSP.

I can connect to Wowza using FLME very easy and play url rtmp://myserver/station successfully. I want to use RTSP instead of RTMP. What RTSP client should I use? Please give me more details.

thankks

It worked, thanks.

Another question, I want to use different bit rates to use them on mobiles. It is live broadcast.?
