Hello,

there has been some discussion about insertion static image in incoming RTMP stream, but some time ago.

I’m doing audio only streaming from FLME to Wowza and I would like to insert a static image to stream.

is this possible? Output stream would also be RTMP push (incoming audio + static image).

Do I need Wowza transcoder for this, or can it be done via module/IDE?

Thank you!

Hello there, and welcome to the Wowza support forum.

I’m pretty sure the stream requires a video track. You should then be able to overlay your image to cover the whole frame utilizing the Transcoder Overlay feature.

You might take a look at one of these other options as an alternative:

Also, a player like JW Player will allow you to add overlays on the client side. You might look into this option as well.

Kind regards,
