I have an url of a camera that sends live fotos periodically.

> ` (for instance: "http://domain-name/example.jpg")`

I want to stream it into the wowza streaming engine and then playback to a client. How do I do this? how to add the stream into the wowza streaming engine and how to output the playback?

thank you for the help.

That type of URL is not a video stream, so it will not work with Wowza Streaming Engine.
