Server Not Found

[glentek]

Hello,

I tried to view a music recital at:

http://www.music.iastate.edu/feeds/recital/recitalflash

I got the following error:

Server Not Found. rtmp://mirror242.music.iastate.edu:80/live/

My sister could view the recital from a different computer.

I can connect to the server with:

http://mirror242.music.iastate.edu/
Wowza Media Server 2 Perpetual 2.0.0 build22912

I tried temporarily disabling my firewall but the same problem occurs. I have read some of the discussions on this forum and one of the threads seemed to indicate it was a programming error. Can someone take a look at the source code of:

http://www.music.iastate.edu/feeds/recital/recitalflash

and let me know if there is a programming error on that page? I am a software programmer and can create my own web page to correct any errors. Also, I can pass on the information to the webmaster at that site so they can correct it there.

Thanks.

Are you connecting from a computer in a strict corporate LAN? Some corporate LANs do not allow rtmp streaming.

Try RTMPT (tunneling) protocol:

rtmpt://mirror242.music.iastate.edu:80/live/

Hi Richard,

I am using a pay-wifi service that is available in the community where I am staying. Maybe they are try to ration bandwidth by blocking rtmp?

When you say "try" rtmpt, are you suggesting that I create a web page that "tries" it. I saved (Firefox - right click Save As...) the http://www.music.iastate.edu/feeds/recital/recitalflash page on my computer, but I am having trouble getting the player to display on the page using the saved files.

Thanks

I just tried it and it failed the first time but worked after that.

What version of JW Player are you using. I have noticed the same thing with the latest version of JW(5.3) on other sites. 5.2 doesn't seem to have the same problems.

When you say "try" rtmpt, are you suggesting ...

Wherever you are entering this RTMP url:

rtmp://mirror242.music.iastate.edu:80/live/

Try RTMPT

rtmpT://mirror242.music.iastate.edu:80/live/

How can I tell the version?

Richard,

It is being executed in javascript on this page. http://www.music.iastate.edu/feeds/recital/recitalflash. I "saved" the web page to my computer, but the player does not even show up. I assume I can't just enter rtmpT://mirror242.music.iastate.edu:80/live/ in the Firefox navigation bar, right?
