Hi,

I am receiving MPTS stream (two stream) as muticast. I have setup my Wowza Server as the link below:

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-publish-and-play-a-live-stream-mpeg-ts-based-encoder](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-publish-and-play-a-live-stream-mpeg-ts-based-encoder)

I have also create two .stream files mentioning each program Id (i.e. here 1 and 2) and published them also.

But when I am trying to see the video using Adobe Flash Player (RTMP). I can only see a Black video.

Please let me know, what else should I ensure.

Thanks in Advance

Birendra

Birendra,

Do hear audio? What do you see in the access and error logs?

Can you play the stream in VLC directly? If so, what is info in Tools \> Codec info? Or you can enable “cupertinostreamingpacketizer” in the Application.xml /Streams /LiveStreamPacketizers, for much codec info in the access log when packetization starts.
