I launched WebRTC examples successfully on my server. Publish and Play examples works. Right now i want to play webRTC streams via html5 video tag. I checked doc at [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-play-video-using-the-html5-video-tag](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-play-video-using-the-html5-video-tag) and looks like my src should be [http://{server\_IP}:1935/webrtc/myStream/playlist.m3u8](https://3.88.167.119:1935/webrtc/myStream/playlist.m3u8) . i.e. . But this source does not work, I can download a file from [http://{server\_IP}:1935/webrtc/myStream/playlist.m3u8](https://3.88.167.119:1935/webrtc/myStream/playlist.m3u8)
Could you help me to figure out what is wrong.
PS. My server uses self-signed certificate

Sounds like you are trying to do playback in HLS, which means you’ll need to transcode the audio from Opus (audio captured in browser via WebRTC) to AAC.

I was able to play my stream via address [https://{server\_IP}/webrtc/myStream/playlist.m3u8](https://3.88.167.119/webrtc/myStream_360p/playlist.m3u8) using [https://bitmovin.com/demos/stream-test](https://bitmovin.com/demos/stream-test) . But I do not hear sound. Any idea why?

You are not hearing sound because WebRTC audio is Opus, HLS (via m3u8 playlist) needs AAC per the [spec](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/http_live_streaming/hls_authoring_specification_for_apple_devices). Please see my previous response for steps to transcode to AAC.

Due to potential issues, we do not suggest you use self-signed certs with WebRTC. Are you able to try it with a free Streamlock SSL cert instead through Wowza @Pavel Tsukanov?
