Hello,

I would like to know which are the exactly specifications of the recorded video file which is recorded with Wowza Media Engine.

Specially if the video is constant or variable frame rate.

Hello,

You will get an AVC file with either MP4 Variable framerate and bitrate or FLV output format along with variable bitrate and constant framerate.

Guide on recording live streams.
