Hello

suggestion: among the Stream Targets (pushpublishing), add Livestream.

This is a popular platform which uses authentication to its platform so it is impossible to push standard rtmp (no rtmp ingest address is ever given).

But some third-party encoders can be used (wirecast, xsplit …) so maybe wowza can implement that (this would presumeably require some sort of agreement with Livestream).

thanks.

Thanks Kevin; my request was about the new livestream platform. And I should correct the initial post by noting that the only encoders supported on new platform are Livestream’s owns + a few hardware but not wirecast nor xsplit (which support only original platform where rtmp is not locked).
