I have downloaded a library from this links its working fine for live streaming with in local network. I am not able to customize this library to communicate with wowza server. Please guide me if anyone knows.
Or else suggest me some other open source ios client library(Encoding foramt should be either H.264 or MPEG 2 or 4) to communicate with wowza server.
I recommend you to install wowza locally on your host, turn it on the max debug level and try to establish the session with you client. Then, in the log, you will see what is going on. As per my experience, wowza standard setup behaves in a pretty expectable way, understands h264 + aac sound. I implemented rtsp client for android, can send you negotiating logs, etc. You, on the other side, could also grab the log on how session is established to check if commands order is ok, all is sane and what the response is.

i would like to stream Dron video from the controler (Dji mavic air 2 with a RC-N1 controler) via RTMP direktly from the controler/my Phone to my PC wihl i am in the fields without having any internet conection or an extra Network. Is that some how possible?
First, you still need a network. You can create a hotspot using a computer (laptop) or a device that connects to the RC-controller (phone, tablet).
Secondly, you need an RTMP server that will be located in this network. As a quick example, I can recommend MonaServer2, it is easy to install and run.
Thirdly, you need someone who will "listen" to the server when the stream comes to it. For example, you can use a VLC player. Launch it and specify RTMP stream as a source.
So, you start the RTMP-server, let's say it is located at 192.168.0.1:1935. On your device connected to the RC-controller, using the standard DJI-Fly application or your own app developed using Mobile SDK, select the option to start streaming, specify the address: rtmp://192.168.0.1:1935/live. Next, launch VLC-Player, select File->Open Network Stream and type rtmp://192.168.0.1:1935/live in URL field. Now you will be able to watch live-stream in your VLC window.
This is the fastest and easiest way I can recommend.
Also you can take raw h264 frames from camera, send them to decoder and do whatever you want. If you need some more info about it feel free to ask. Hope it helps!
I am trying to develop a live-streaming application like the meerkat app, where user A can broadcast a live stream while other users are able to watch it. I am having trouble understanding the architecture and mechanisms used to upload video to a server. Currently, I am using a dedicated server with FFMPEG installed on it. I also know FFServer can be used to perform RTSP communication, but I am still unclear how to do this. Can anyone guide me on this?
I would like to know how to upload videos to a server or whether there is another way to perform a live stream. Open source frameworks are welcome.
for Live streaming video/audio http://www.wowza.com/ give you the best functionality. you have to set up your server in WOWZA also you cant test in that.
for IOS you can broadcast and receive from the below demo you can download from here
i think it's helpful to you :)
Well i was in search of something open source which can be implemented without any additional cost. Luckily found Red5 Server (Open Source) https://github.com/Red5/red5-server
I had configured it on my dedicated server and running perfectly fine. Now as server side issue is solved. I need something thing to work on iOS side. For that also i found https://github.com/slavavdovichenko/MediaLibDemos3x
So with the combination of this two repos i was able to make an live streaming app like meerkut
Thanks
I have to record the high volume sound. It can be upto 60 seconds. The application is already made on flash and the current flash application uses rtmp (red5 server) and streams the recording to the server in real time as FLV. I have uploaded the audio file on server as mp3 from iOS application but this approach is not useful as the volume is very high as mentioned above. So I want to use rtmp (red5 server) for iOS application. I want to ask is it possible that I can record the audio and upload on this server and also can steam from there?
Edit-1: I want to ask that whether Apple can reject the application if we use the RTMP iOS library in our application?
Edit-2: I did some research and found some 3rd party libraries like:
http://www.aftek.com/afteklab/aftek-iphone-RTMP-library.shtml
I want to know, whether it is possible to directly connect from iOS to RTMP server?
Or these libraries use the middle layer approach with HTTP to connect to RTMP?
Example: iOS -> HTTP Server -> RTMP Server (red5)
I will appreciate the help.
I am new to multimedia and iOS programming and I came across Weborb while Googling, which provides RTMP library for iOS. It doesn't clearly mention that if it can be used to stream live video through a media server like Red5.
If any one have used this, please let me know that whether it can be used to stream live video from iPhone to a media server and where does it fit in the whole setup.
Does it act like a server itself between a media server and the iPhone application or does it also have its own media server?
I also want some links for tutorials which can help me start the real coding pertaining to RTMP streaming to a media server?
Thanks.
The short answer is yes, the RTMP library for iOS can be used with Red5, FMS, WebORB etc. The library is not the server itself, yet client. It establish the RTMP connection to the server and encodes stream before send it to the server.
As I remember the library distributive contains some example to demonstrate how streaming works. Unfortunately, the official site doesn't show any examples related to streaming, the available examples can be useful to start work with the library (http://www.themidnightcoders.com/products/weborb-for-mobile/ios-integration/rtmp-ios-examples-integration-between-java-net-and-ios.html). The documentation looks up to date - http://www.themidnightcoders.com/fileadmin/docs/ios/.
I'm trying to play a live stream that is being sent out by a Wowza server, we are using RTMP to handle the streams. We have an equivalent for that works on android and the way they do it is by connecting to the server via the url and 2 parameters to identify the actual stream to play and if you are allowed to see the live video. After the connection is attempted, the server does a call back sending an integer for a check to see if the user is logged in. Once the check has passed, the video is played.
I have no idea how to handle the call back or how to properly set up the connection so that it takes both parameters and the url.
One big issue is that the Wowza server was created by a third party that we are no longer in contact with, so i have no idea on how the actual server is set up.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
I recommend a few steps to start with:
Determine how the Android app actually works. Is the the server you speak of to which it sends the two parameters the Wowza server? If so, it is probably a custom plugin.
Get access to the server, so that you can configure it for iOS streaming.
You'll also need to check out some documentation, http://www.wowza.com/forums/content.php?3-quick-start-guide, http://www.wowza.com/forums/content.php?217#cupertinostreaming
Once you have a better understanding of the problem, the Wowza folks are very helpful at http://www.wowza.com/forums.
Good luck!
there is no need to android apps etc. Wowza is supporting the output which can be played # ios, because of the ios cant play flash, then it cannot played rtmp or rtsp . However Ios can play the stream which is like http: // myWowzaServer/myApplication/myStream/playlist.m3u8 ...
