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

[randall]

Hi Steve,

The RTPPusher package is very basic and only used as a reference example. You'll have to modify it to your needs.

One way, is to put the stream info in your Application.xml and read it using client.getAppInstance().getProperties().getPropert yStr() statements.

With this AddOn, is it also necessary to do use these steps for starting the stream in Stream Manager? http://www.wowza.com/forums/content....sed-encoder%29 Also, can I specify a port such as udp://0.0.0.0:1234 for the stream that I'd like to pull into Wowza in my mpeg.stream file? Thanks, Derrick F.

If the incoming stream is MPEG-TS then yes you will need to use the stream manager or StartupStreams.xml to start the incoming streams. Yes, you should a .stream file.

How would I use this to push out a server side created stream?

[GraemeBull]

Actually, I figured it out so no worries.

Are there any Akamai push examples? I have it pushing to my Akamai channel but I keep getting a username/password validation fail. I did uncomment the RTMP authentication section and entered the channel username/password. Am I missing something simple?

I had a similar problem with our test Akamai account the other day. Re-download the push publishing add-on and use the most recent .jar file. Then switch your code from:

publisher.setAkamaiUserName(akamaiUsername);
publisher.setAkamaiPassword(akamaiPassword);

To this:

PushPublishRTMPAuthProviderAdobe adobeRTMPAuthProvider = new PushPublishRTMPAuthProviderAdobe();

adobeRTMPAuthProvider.init(publisher);
adobeRTMPAuthProvider.setUserName(akamaiUsername);
adobeRTMPAuthProvider.setPassword(akamaiPassword);
publisher.setRTMPAuthProvider(adobeRTMPAuthProvider);
