Hi,

We need SSL certificate for Wowza server to enable https for the web server. There is one specific situation about the certificate for Wowza. It does not support automatic Domain Validation procedure, because it is not possible to put a file for the seller on to the server to verify the ownership of the domain. Is there some good way (like ability to actually purchase one) to make use of a website certificate for Wowza? (excluding the Wowza account option).

I think one great option would be support for LetsEncrypt certificates directly by Wowza Engine.

Thanks!
