Awesome trick (copy and paste as a new module). Thanks!
The problem with the paths was a simple one. A simple restart of the Wowza IDE was all that was needed. Thanks again
This package enables you to mount an S3 bucket as a directory on a Wowza EC2 instance. You can then use that directory to copy videos recorded by Wowza when the recording process is complete so they can be streamed immediately by video on demand player using the vodS3 application.
Note that an S3FS mount should not be used to record to directly (see note), or for streaming directly from. Use the vodS3 application to stream from S3.
Does this mean the recommended architecture is to record directly to the EC2 instance and then automatically move the recorded content to S3? If that is the suggestion for VOD-like content, I can understand. However, what about “live recording” content? How does a user play back that content? If playback should happen from the EC2 instance (and not S3), then how does one achieve load balancing if multiple users want to playback the content that is being recorded, but yet to be completed?
Note that my question relates to Wowza server 3 + nDVR add-on.
Does this mean that you can’t really load balance the streaming of live recordings?
Am I right that this means that your “recording” or “capture” wowza server (with Ndvr) must also be your streaming server?
I always thought it would be good design to split up the two tasks across two instances.
Thanks, would this architecture also allow rewind and fast forward of streams from edge servers that are still recording live on the origin?
Also, besides the general concept that MediaCache allows load balancing for already recorded content, is there any more information on what it does? Are the most recently used video files “cached” in memory?
Are you referring to https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-stream-repeater-for-use-with-wowza-ndvr-origin-edge.
s3fs can be implemented on the origin server and edge servers can later start serving from s3 is it.
charlie,
how can i use the above code i have create module and copied the above code. but i am not sure what to do exactly. can you provide steps to save file from android to wowza
