Hi there,

Have just completed my first install. However when I try to play (VOD application) in Wowza Test Players it says ‘playing’ in the bottom of the player but … no stream (black screen).

Wowza Streaming Engine were installed for Windows on Azure. I can access the Wowza server by entering [wowza-ip]:1935 in a browser.

I am putting the following in the Test Player MPEG\_DASH:

http://[wowza-ip]:1935/vod/mp4:sample.mp4/manifest.mpd

When i click start it shows playing in the bottom but black screen appears.

Hello @Shipra Jain,

Thanks for using Wowza Forums.

Are you able to play the stream in another DASH player? Something like the [bitmovin player](http://bitmovin.com/hls-mpeg-dash-test-player/).

Which browser are you using when testing MPEG-DASH playback in the Wowza Engine Manager Test Player?

Regards,

Alex C.
