Article: How to get MulticastPublish AddOn (multicast and unicast streams to UDP and RTSP)

[wstream]

Hi,

Is it possible to do udp portsharing while multicasting with this module/wowza?

Kind regards

Wim

I don't think so. The port sharing is about incoming streams.

I think so. The port sharing is about incoming streams.

How about the outgoing streams?

We would like to use such feature for multilingual multicast streaming.

You should be able to use PIDs to reference tracks within a stream. You have to encode multiple tracks, which I don't have any info on, but here's guidance on how to playback such a stream:

I add application.xml <Module> and <Property> parametrs.

i configure incoming rtsp stream content/mpegts.stream: rtsp://localhost:5544/qw

i configure output multicast stream conf/multicastmap.txt: myStream={name:mpegts.stream,video:239.1.0.1:10000 ,isRTPWrapped:false}

after i start in localhost:8086/streammanager application streamname mpegts.stream i see this log.

what am I doing wrong?

Thank you

[rrlanham]

You just publish a stream named "myStream" with a RTMP live encoder to the same application.

Or you could start a stream in StreamManager using stream name "myStream" if that is a StreamNameAlias alias that points to rtsp or udp stream source.

How come there is no reference anywhere on how to use this to push unicast ?

[mikemeandi]

Hi randall,
ok thanks, i have solved my problem

stefano

Could you tell us how you solved your problem ?

Mike, as far as I know, you should be able to just specific a non-multicast IP in the multicastmap.txt file.

I cannot seem to get this to work. I have tried the RTPPusher package and it works with my decoders just fine. When I try this I don't seem to be getting any sort of video etc. This is what is in my multicast map:
iphone={name:iphone,stream:227.1.1.1:4010,isRTPWra pped:false}

I have also updated the application setting multicastPublishMPEGTSOut to True. I am using an iphone 4s with Livu on it with UDP transport. I think it uses h.264 native encoding. Could this possibly be an issue? I would really like to get this to be automated so we don't have to use the RTPPusher interface to turn it up.
