Hi,
I want to implement the following scenario:
I’ve got a wowza engine which has two live applications. One application is the Entry Point and the other the Transcoder. Entry Point application will receive several incoming rtmp streams but it should push one of them to the Transcoder. The Transcoder application will transcode the stream to HLS in several qualities. Then, there will be a web application switching between incoming streams.
My first approach was to create an instance of PushPublishRTMP when an instance of the Entry Point application is created but do not set the source stream. When the first encoder starts to publish its stream is attached to the instance of PushPublishRTMP using the method setSrcStream. Following encoder connections will be accepted but not attached. When the web application sends the order to switch the stream I also use setSrcStream to change the stream.
This is how my code looks:
package com.wowza.ws;
//TODO: Add imports

public static String TAG = EntryPointModule.class.getSimpleName() + " ";

So far, every thing seemed to work. However, when I play the resulting stream from the Transcoder application, every time I switch the stream the HLS stream stops and sometimes even if I refresh the player page it won’t work anymore.
I wonder if IPushPublish has a proper protocol to switch the source stream.
Thanks.
