HI
Using ffmpeg , I am converting HLS audio stream to RTMP But Wowza is not accepting mp3 format. It streams the audio only when i encode the hls stream to aac.
ffmpeg -i hls_stream-url -f mp3 rtmp://wowza-server-ip/live/audioStream -> Not Working
ffmpeg -i hls_stream-url -c:a aac -strict -2 -f flv rtmp://wowza-server-ip/live/audioStream -> working
Please advise.
Thanks
Hi,
Please post an example of the URL you’re using for playback (using [Wowza-IP-Address] to hide the IP address if required]
By default Wowza will use the mp4: prefix and you may need to change this to mp3: if it’s an audio only stream.
Are you seeing any issues within the log files when the stream is being published?

I recommend removing authentication to see if you’re getting the same results when a username/password isn’t required.
For authentication of publishers which don’t support the username/password authentication popup, you can replace this authentication method with our ModuleSecureURLParams authentication Module.

Hello,
Do you get the same issue when using a different encoder?
Zoran
I gave this cmd: ffmpeg -i [hls-stream-url] -f mp3 rtmp://[wowza-server-ip]/live/audioStream
and tried to save the file on Wowza…Wowza creates just 1kb file
and after few seconds the audiostream closes on its own on Wowza server whereas my ffmpeg is still streaming the audio.
I use rtmp://[wowza-server-ip]/live/audioStream to play the audio in vlcplayer
Following is the Wowza log during this test:-

I tried without authentication and also using ModuleSecureURLParams. aac is working, but mp3 is not…
ffmpeg -i hls_stream-url -f mp3 rtmp://wowza-server-ip/live?doPublish=12345/audioStream → Not Working
ffmpeg -i hls_stream-url -c:a aac -strict -2 -f flv rtmp://wowza-server-ip/live?doPublish=12345/audioStream → working
Do we need some other module/property to enable it in Wowza server to accept mp3 audio input?
