A good place to start would be to read over the [Wowza User Guide](https://www.wowza.com/resources/WowzaStreamingEngine_UsersGuide.pdf)

After that, get a simple live stream up and running:

[How to set up live streaming using an RTMP-based encoder](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-streaming-using-an-rtmp-based-encoder)

Then you can take a look at this guide:

[How to set up live video chat](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-live-video-chat)

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Regards,

Salvadore

Support for WebRTC is on the road map but is not yet supported in the latest Wowza release.

As this continues to develop, more information will become available.

Hello,

I woudl suggest reviewing the codecs that can be ingested for transcoding in this article:

[https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-and-run-wowza-transcoder-for-live-streaming](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-set-up-and-run-wowza-transcoder-for-live-streaming)

Focusing your efforts on having a useable codec combination is the first step, getting that signal into Wowza Streaming Engine is the next step, from there delivery should be pretty easy to achieve.

Usually there is a focus on the encoder, and you might consider looking at FFmpeg as an option to use for an encoder element.

I hope this helps clarify your options.

Regards,

Jason Hatchett

Hi J.Hatchett,

Thanks for your reply , we would like to ask if wowza has support for webRTC ? we dont use flash on our website . Or is there any tutorial for it , because we couldnt find any spesific answer , on the forums said, there is no support for webRTC but its said long time ago .

Thanks again
