Hello,  
is there a way to show what Resolution and Frames per Second a Ingest Stream has? It would be nice the Devs would implement this Information in the Web-Manager. I suggest Application -\> Incoming Streams -\> name\_of\_ingest\_stream

There is no current integration with Streaming Engine, but I did pass your specific suggestion along as a feature request.

I do have some suggestions for you on how to achieve this though:

Frames per Second (fps) is read within the `onLivePacket` method which is called for every packet that is received for the live stream before the packet is processed for playback:

```
class PacketListener implements IMediaStreamLivePacketNotify
	{
		/**
		* onLivePacket is called for every packet that is received for the live stream before the packet is processed for playback.
		* It is very important that this method returns quickly and is not delayed in any way.
		*/
		@Override
		public void onLivePacket(IMediaStream stream, AMFPacket packet)
		{
			if (packet.isVideo())
			{
				// packet.getTimecode(); returns the elapsed time, in milliseconds, between this packet and the last packet of the same type.
				double fps = (double)1000 / packet.getTimecode();
				stream.getProperties().setProperty("currentFPS", new Double(fps));

```

**Alternatively, we have this Java method which works fine for reading the incoming fps as well**  
`stream.getPublishFramerateVideo()`

Hello Wowza Staff,  
thanks for your Feedback. I hope we can see this in Wowza Manager in one of the next Wowza Versions. At the moment i record some seconds of ingested Stream from new Publishers, to control the right Settings for Resolution and Framerate.
