Whats the easiest way to create stream schedules? I want to play stored content as a continuous stream and occasionally broadcast live stream remotely connected through GoCoder from a remote location, its like a TV/Radio station. Also is it btter to run on Windows or linux? pros/cons please. Any help will be highly appreciated. thanks
1) Install the Stream publisher (StreamPublisher) module.

- Configure the Loop until live function of StreamPublisher (LoopUntilLive).

As Wowza Streaming Engine is written in Java then please use the platform that you are the most comfortable with. There is no difference in performance regardless of OS on the same hardware.
