If you don’t change any vlc settings you can use the same sdp file.
Richard
The only way I know to test is put it all together and see if it works. This is the Quicktime Broadcaster guide:

Actually, we’re not promoting consulting, Wowza does software. We would like to see this start working for you. The usual problem between two computers is ports and firewalls.
Richard
On EC2, it is the Security Group. You have to add ports to the security group. The Wowza EC2 guide has instructions.
Richard
That looks okay.
I would focus on EC2 security groups, getting that right.
You need to add UDP ports in some case,TCP in others. The CIDR values is always “0.0.0.0/0” <-- check that
Are you using the Firefox ElasticFox plugin?
Richard
You won’t need all these, and I don’t remember why I have half of them, but for reference this my default security group:

Richard
You need to add:
UPD 6970 - 9999
Richard
Won’t work because Flash plugin does not encode to h.264 baseline 3, which is required by IPhone.
Richard
You can use enocder that does rtmp or rtp/rtsp push.

How can we test two things for our streaming?
-
Cam on mac with broadcaster to a diff server, to confirm stream can be received?
-
A diff stream to our EC2 server
Therefore narrowing down where the pipe is clogged?
Guys we have indeed followed all of this and are obviously missing something. We have asked for assistance in many different ways.
Now it feels like we are going to be led around in circles until we pay the $300hr consulting rate Elan quoted us.
We truly want to say WOWZA but aren’t feeling the love.
What other things can we post to help diagnose the issue?
Charlie what are all of the other files we can send to help diagnose this?
Thanks
Well that did not worked,
here is my steps
on my pc run this command
vlc -vvv -I rc dshow:// :dshow-vdev="CyberLink Web Camera Filter" :dshow-adev="External Mic (IDT High Definiti" :dshow-size="640x480" --sout "#transcode{venc=x264{keyint=60,profile=baseline,level=3.0,nocabac,qpmax=36,qpmin=10,me=hex,merange=24,subme=9,qcomp=0.6},vcodec=x264,vb=500,scale=1,acodec=mp4a,ab=96,channels=2,samplerate=48000}:rtp{dst=***.***.**.***,port-video=10000,port-audio=10002,sdp= file://d:/vlc.sdp}"
then go to stream manager
http://...*:8086/streammanager/index.html
enable the rtp live stream
copy the vlc.sdp file generated in my pc on the server (content folder)
and then try to run on iphone
http://***.***.**.***:1935/rtplive/vlc.sdp/playlist.m3u8
is there any step that im missing-skipping?
Thanks for your help
question , does the sdp changes between runs? i just did the exact instructions
also extracting useful data in the logs (i see a lot of warns) as there are also some from the streaming (Comments) that we are doing to our site
here are something interesting

the server does not see the vlc file on the server?
is there any special user-permission that this file needs?

and nothing is being show
EC2 Ports open are 10000 to 10003 ,1935, and some others used by us.
Does Quciktime generated a sdp file taht we need to upload?
Also there is no error in the logs,so not really sure what is the problem (no port blockcing on pc also, even disabled av-firewall)
Check the access log (no error logs) plz
sorry had to copy on pastebin, too big for this forum
