rtmp setup? #1

Open anointed opened 12 years ago

anointed commented 12 years ago

I use a Wowza cluster to serve up my live streaming and vod mp4 videos via rtmp/rtmpe. Both flowplayer and jwplayer support live streaming rtmp without an issue.

Where I am stuck: I have tried every combination of parameters in order to use rtmp but none seem to work. As html5 does not support rtmp, Wowza has a built in psuedo streaming fallback. I have no problem embedding players that just plain work, BUT using the example code provided for SimpleVid, and of course adding in my own rtmp parameters, I just can't get it to work.

Can you please provide an example snippet of how to add a live stream rtmp .mp4 video using SimpleVid?

thanks

*Here is an example snippet of how I include a video into the site right now using jwplayer:

I seem to have no idea how to post code snippets, if the admin 'edits' the comment, then you can see how it should look, sorry about that

Sorry man, I haven't configured it for RTMP. I'll have to get on that, but no time today.

You know what, I gave it a quick try. I don't use RTMP on any of my projects, but I took a shot at it based on a little research. Made a new branch for testing:

https://github.com/johnpolacek/SimpleVid/tree/rtmp

It probably isn't as easy to set up as my quick fix, but maybe we'll get lucky. Want to test it out and let me know if it works for you?

This is hard for me to work on since I don't have an rtmp server to test with. I gave it a shot though. Check out the rtmp branch and try something like:

<source src="rtmp://12.12.132.123:1935/customer-liverecord/filename.mp4" type="video/mp4" />

Hold off, I have to set it up a little more...

I sent you a message via the contact form on your website with everything you should need in order to do some real testing with rtmp. I used the form as the information isn't needed for the ticket.

I sure hope it helps out, and if you actually need a true rtmp setup for testing where you can do your own live broadcasting etc, just let me know and I'll get it setup for you later this week. It should not be needed as the info I sent gives you everything you need to test, other than a live broadcast.

Thnx for the effort on this. Fluid video, esp rtmp has been a thorn in my side for a long time now. As using rtmp seems to cut my bandwidth bill dramatically I can't stop using it after seeing the benefits. Having both rtmp and fluid setup would be a dream.

Just wanted to let you know that I did try testing the branch you created for rtmp and it does not work. I'm guessing now that you have 'real' files and rtmp links that you probably know that though. Mainly wanted to note it in the ticket in case others try the same thing.
