Sorry you never got an answer here @hieluki

There was an issue about a month ago with stream targets in Italy that has been resolved. There was also an issue on Fastly’s end about 3 weeks ago that resulted in streams failing through. That was also corrected.

What I’d like to suggest since you no longer got an answer here, is to sign up for wowza status notifications. When there is any sort of issue that may affect your stream, wowza will notify you by email and provide a workaround for the issue as well as a timeline estimate for resolution.

UPDATE: The issue with stream playback in Italy has been fully resolved. No further workaround is required.
