Hi,

I have a stream being broadcasted in local network from a source. The stream can be played in VLC using rtp://@5000. This test was done in Windows system.

Now I am trying to restream the video using the Wowza 4 using Centos serever.

I can see the incoming stream at 5000 port.

Where 192.168.3.137 is the source encoder IP and

192.168.3.138. is the server IP where wowza 4 is running.

I followed the tutorial mentioned in

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming).

Hope this is the correct one for my scenario.

I am using “rtp://@5000” in my stream file to play the LIVE.

But I have not succeeded in that.

So my query is “rtp://@5000” in stream file is sufficient to play the stream. Or do I need other details as well.

Please let me know if more information required.

P.S. I have already enabled wowza to listen to the correct network interface.

Thanks,

Birendra

Hi

Can u try try using udp://x.x.x.x:5000 in stream file then join stream using rtp.

Also can u provide the application.xml along with log messages.
