When I start the Wowza server on my mac I get these messages in the terminal

I have checked the links posted for making changes in QT Player and VLC player but still I am getting these errors and Even though I am able to send the Video to Wowza server, it is not able to stream the video to any of the players.

**Update:**

After I start the video stream from this address in the Browser

_localhost:8086/streammanager_

I get the following message in the terminal:

Hi,

I tried the following URL (where **144.1.1.72** is the IP of the Mac system where Wowza is installed) in both VLC player and QuickTime Player on a windows system but all in vain:

_rtsp://144.1.1.72:1935/live/definst/camera.stream_

_rtsp://144.1.1.72:1935/live/camera.stream_

Here **camera.stream** is the stream that I am sending to wowza and **live** is the name of the application and it is in /[install-dir]/applications

camera.stream file is kept at /[install-dir]/applications/live

I also tried to play the stream on the same system on which Wowza is installed with the following URL in QT and VLC players:

_rtsp://144.1.1.72:1935/live/definst/camera.stream_

_rtsp://144.1.1.72:1935/live/camera.stream_

_rtsp://localhost:1935/live/definst/camera.stream_

_rtsp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/definst/camera.stream_

_rtsp://localhost:1935/live/camera.stream_

_rtsp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/camera.stream_

But in VLC player I don’t see anything happening and in QuickTime Player for a long time it says ‘Configuring’ but nothing happens while in the terminal you can see the stream getting timed out. Following are the messages that appear in Terminal.

_INFO stream unpublish camera.stream -_

I have not made any setting in Mac for playing RTSP in VLC and QT player but I had done that on Windows, still the video doesn’t get played in any of the players.

Please tell what is going wrong and what can I do to solve this.

Thanks,

Manas

> Hi Manas,

Hi,

I have followed the following tutorial to stream the video.

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming)

At the URL _[http://localhost:8086/streammanager/index.html](http://localhost:8086/streammanager/index.html)_

only those names appear which are there in [install-dir]/applications. If I have to play a stream from [install-dir]/content, then how can I do that?

Please also let me know if I have to make any changes in the Application.xml file for this.

I play a stream in flash player through this file in wowza install directory - _/examples/VideoOnDemandStreaming/FlashRTMPPlayer/player.html_

So also tell me that if I play the stream from [install-dir]/content what should be filled in the fields ‘Server’ and ‘Stream’.

And also let me know if I have to play the stream in a VLC ot QuickTime player then what URL should be used.

Thanks,

Manas.

Hi,

Yes, I followed the tutorial mentioned by you. My stream type is RTSP.

I am using stream manager which comes at this URL

Using VLC or QuickTime player I am able to see the video captured by my iPhone directly as the phone and the computer is connected to the same network on Wi-Fi. In VLC or QuickTime player I enter the following URL rtsp://144.1.1.137

and 144.1.1.137 is the IP of iPhone.

As you can see in the logs posted in my previous posts that Wowza server receives the stream sent from my phone. The problem occurs only while playing it on a player through Wowza server. Please tell me what can I do to play the video on any of the players.

Thanks,

Manas.

Hi,

My iPhone acts like an RTSP server and I so I think I should be using the camera.stream file to pull the stream to Wowza.

Following in the contents of my camera.stream file in BOLD:

**rtsp://144.1.1.37**

And as mentioned before, this is the same url which I use to play the video directly in VLC or QuickTime players when both, iPhone and the computer (on which I am playing the video) are connected to the same network through Wi-Fi.

Thanks,

Manas

Hi,

I followed the steps mentioned by you and I selected ‘Media caster Type’ as ‘rtp’ and Stream Name as camera.stream and as soon as I press ok, the terminal shows that the stream is received but is also timed out and when I try to play the video in the Flash player as suggested by you I get these messages in the terminal through the whole process. I have highlighted the message in **bold** that appear when I click ‘Connect’ in the Flash PLayer.

Hi,

I have entered the properties which you mentioned to include in the xml file ([install-dir]/conf/live/Application.xml) at these links

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming#extraLog](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming#extraLog)

and

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming#sdp](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-re-stream-video-from-an-ip-camera-rtsp-rtp-re-streaming#sdp)

Then I tried to play the video on the same Mac on which the Wowza Server is installed through Flash player with the following details:

Server: rtmp://localhost/live

Stream: camera.stream

VLC Player:

URL: rtsp://localhost:1935/live/camera.stream

and again with

URL: rtsp://localhost:1935/live/_definst_/camera.stream

But it showed an error “Your input cannot be opened”.

If you need you can check the VLC logs and all other logs of terminal here

[https://www.dropbox.com/sh/iehgrp8uzvnvc4t/8-X33qUlXG](https://www.dropbox.com/sh/iehgrp8uzvnvc4t/8-X33qUlXG)

I also tried in QuickTime player with the above mentioned URLs for VLC but it didn’t work.

These are the messages that appeared in terminal:

Hi,

Thanks. The last change suggested by you worked.

Hi,

Can you also guide me that how can I save the live RTSP video while it is being streamed live?

Thanks,

Manas

Hi,

Thanks for the tip. I was able to save the live stream as suggested by you.

I also wanted to know how can I use nDVR Addon with my present setup. I checked the tutorial for using the nDVR Addon at this link [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-and-run-wowza-ndvr-for-live-streaming](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-and-run-wowza-ndvr-for-live-streaming), but it says only about playback and publishing for HTTP streaming. Please tell me how can I use the nDVR Addon in my present setup.

Thanks and regards,

Manas
