I have a camera that works fine and I can see the live video, when I hit it directly with the IP. But it doesn’t stream from Wowza. I see the following in the logs. Please help!

Hi,

The publish stream is started as “flv:KingFalcon.stream”, while it likely should be “mp4:KingFalcon.stream”. Try to put “mp4:” manually in front of the stream name when starting it.

Also, I’m not 100% sure, but I’ve experienced that Wowza doesn’t accept query string parameters in a .stream file; that would mean that “?videocodec=h264&streamprofile=Wowza” gets stripped from the URL when starting the stream, which logically may confuse your IP camera.
