Trying to use RTMP and Google Glass with Wowza

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

Hello everybody !

I’m trying the kickflip.io opensource framework to stream using Google Glass,

The framework seems to use :

  • RTMP protocol

  • mp4a-latm audio ecoder

  • H.264 Advanced Video Coding video encoder

  • 30fps

  • 3 seconds between I-frames

  • Video Resolution 320 * 240

  • Video Bitrate 300 * 1000

  • Audio Bitrate 192 * 1000

    When I stream to wowza, in the monitoring part I see packets arriving, so far so good.

    When I open the RTMP stream on VLC, I can see the stream video/audio but there are a 5 seconds delays.

    I need to have less than 2 seconds delay, so I have checked on internet and it seems that in order to reduce this delay I should use a flash player and reduce the buffer size.

    My current problem is that I cant see my stream on any flash player !

    I tried on the wowza rtmp flashplayer, I also have tried with flowplayer and jw player, it doesnt seem to work.

    On wowza “test players” I have the message “Started playing my stream” but I have a black screen… ad nothing happen

    What is weird is that it works on VLC…

    Could help me ?

    Thank you

Hi,

Do you see anythings in the logs which would indicate an issue with the source stream?

Although this isn’t playing on a Flash player yet, to reduce the latency please see the tutorial below.

If you can’t see anything in the log files which indicates what the issue could be, please open a ticket by emailing support@wowza.com

In your email please include a detailed description of the problem, a link to this thread for reference and a ZIP file containing the following directories:

[Wowza-Install]/conf/

[Wowza-Install]/logs/

[Wowza-Install]/transcoder/

[Wowza-Install]/manager/logs/

Please do make sure you provide logs which show Wowza server starting.

If you are not sure how to get this information please see the following tutorial.
