Starting Livestream failed. Check and try again.

Hi, we have tried with different IOS and Android devices and the DJI Fly app. And also custom SDK apps to livestream and it’s always a a failure.

DJI Fly says Starting Livestream failed. And custom apps get a -254 (failed) error code.

is this feature suppose to be working? We have a standard setup right out the box and cannot get this to work. Thanks.

Mavic air 2 DJI FLY APP IOS and Android devices. Latest firmware and app versions. We verify internet access working. we have verified the RTMP ingestion url is working.

You cannot even run on DJI Fly app, please check your network conditions and the RTMP server, maybe change to Youtube and try again.

This might be a server issue, trying streaming to the RTMP server with OBS and viewing the stream URL in VLC. If that works, then it is a DJI issue. I personally have just got an Android 12 device streaming. And MAKE SURE that the server is accepting publishes from the phones IP, for example in NGINX:

rtmp {
        server {
                listen 1935;
                chunk_size 4096;
                allow publish all;

                application live {
                        live on;
                        record off;
                }
        }
}

254 supposedly means initialization error, I don't know what that means but even when my RTMP server wasn't working, I didn't get that, so it might be a code issue.

-3 means you failed to register video as per: primaryVideoFeedView.registerLiveVideo(VideoFeeder.getInstance().getPrimaryVideoFeed(), true); -1 means the server name is invalid, and 0 means you're good. Never was able to get a 254. I think I have seen mentions of it from Googling, don't see it now. Good luck
