I’m using the information contained in the Telestream Wirecast live encoder with Wowza Server article. I want to stream a live broadcast to iPads. This article says to use one of the flash encoders to send the stream. This works but it also says to edit the H.264 encoder settings. Why is this necessary. I assume that the Wowza server uses the Flash encoded stream to create all the other streams necessary for the various devices. In our case we only need the http stream for the iPads. When I tried this with the WMS2 version whenever I would link to the url it would stop the cupertino stream.

Hi The configuration of the stream needs to be: (baseline: 3.0, Audio: AAC/mp3, Video: H.264) There is a tutorial here, [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-streaming-using-an-rtmp-based-encoder](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-streaming-using-an-rtmp-based-encoder)) Jason ---

Hi When you start Encoding your logs should tell you what’s going on. Can you post the logs from when you connect your encoder please. Jason ---

Okay. I have the Wowsa server running on an xServe running Lion at [http://209.53.143.43:1935/live/myStream.sdp/playlist.m3u8](http://209.53.143.43:1935/live/myStream.sdp/playlist.m3u8). When I link to this in my Safari browser on my iMac it attempts to download and launches iTunes. If I link to it with QuickTime Player it never stops trying to load the movie. If I link with an iPad it kills the stream.
