Hello All,

I am new to setup wowza server. I am not able to find any solution. Sometime live video dispayed on iOS 4.0 and iOS5.0 and sometime nothing displayed. Only black screen displayed.

I am using wowza Server 3.0.3 and installed the latest patch also.

Wowza server gets live stream from Flash Media Encoder. I have tried with many combination on the Flash Media Encoder setting. Following setting I have used also:

Format: H.264

FrameRate : 10

Bit Rate : 200

Profile : Baseline

Level : 3.0

KeyFrame frequency: 2 seconds.

I am not using Audio, only live video.

I have followed the following tutorial to setup the wowza server:

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

and I have not changed anything else on wowza server.

Then why video sometimes work and other time not on iphone. I ahve checked the log, and it doesn’t show any error log in error log file. When I try to open the url on the default iPhone browser, the wowza server console shows that it gets hit, and I can see Create log, but after 25-30 seconds, it prints stream destroed log.

But it always works on live.html, which is provided in the examples of wowza server.

Can anybody please help me.

Thanks in advance.

Manoj Kumar

Manoj,

Zip up conf and logs folders and send them to support@wowza.com

Is your Wowza server on a pubic IP? Include a playback URL to test.

Include a link to this thread for reference
