Greetings from East Africa. Our colleagues are streaming live from a neighbour country, and we would like to ingest their stream as one of our inputs into our ATEM Production Switcher 4K. Can Wowza Transcoder work with a YouTube stream and output it to SDI? Any other solutions that you know of? Appreciate your guidance.

Hello there and welcome to the Wowza support forum.

I’m really not sure how to re-stream youtube content. Do they allow it? If so, they probably have a way to do it, some way that is documented by them. I doubt they allow it though.

HTTP ingress is not supported other then for SHOUTcast streams.
