Hi

I’ am going to stream for my customer with wowza and here is their specification

for live stream

Example HLS:

[http://stream\_1\_live.m3u8](http://stream_1_live.m3u8)

Example Transportstream:

[http://stream\_1\_live.ts](http://stream_1_live.ts)

I am OK with HLS but i don’t understand .ts, as far as i know wowza uses for (mpeg-ts) mpegts.stream ending in link.

How can I stream .ts stream ?

thx

Hi

You can use Wowza to re stream MPEG-TS by creating a stream file within a Wowza Application. The stream file contains the address of the MPEG-TS stream. An example we have within our documentation describes the use of ffmpeg to create an MPEG-TS stream, which is ingested by Wowza listening on port 10000:

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-ffmpeg-with-wowza-media-server-mpeg-ts](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-ffmpeg-with-wowza-media-server-mpeg-ts)

The following article demonstrates how you can publish the MPEG-TS live stream using Wowza and stream files:

Hi,

Try adding the forceMPEGTSOut and rtpWrapMPEGTS Properties set to “true” in the Application.xml /RTP Properties container:

```auto
<Property>
	<Name>forceMPEGTSOut</Name>
	<Value>true</Value>
	<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>
<Property>
	<Name>rtpWrapMPEGTS</Name>
	<Value>true</Value>
	<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>

```

Maybe the box supports cupertino streaming? Then you just need a HLS URL like this:

```auto
http://[wowza-address]:1935/vod/sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8

```

The chunks that are delivered to the player will be .ts files.

Otherwise, you can use rtsp for playback, which is what is affected by the forceMPEGTSOut Property setting.

rtsp://[wowza-address]:1935/vod/sample.mp4

No, sorry, vod streaming of .ts files is not supported. Most STBs at least support RTSP streaming. I would try that with those Property settings.
