Dear all,

I am using wirecast to encode and broadcast to a wowza media server 3.6.2

I want to broadcast one stream with high bitrate from wirecast and in wowza I want to split the one channel (stream) to different multi-channels(streams) with different bit-rate(low, medium, high).

I searched for a module that can do such thing and found something similar to create different video files with different bitrates but I am using an outsource device to broadcast (TV line or external audio device).

Can I do such thing.

I know that I can use wire cast to broadcast the 3 different bitrates directly to wowza but I prefer to do it in wowza because the bandwidth used is small.

Thanks a lot
