Wowza 3.1.2 includ /vod/ in URL requested

[guilacerda]

Hi people,

I upgrade my Wowza from 3.0.3 to 3.1.2 and my midias don't play anymore. In log files, the path where mp4 there has a "/vod/", but this directory not exist. Wowza 3.1.2 change the way how I play my VOD?

URL: rtsp://ip:1935/vod/USIV30300248_VID_TRK_1500.mp4

Content path: /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/content/USIV30300248_VID_TRK_1500.mp4

What is the playback URL you are using? What client?

You are adding "vod" to the url in the wrong place. Using Wowza SimpleVideoStreaming example player it should be:

Server: rtmp://[wowza-address]:1935/vod
Stream: mp4:USIV30300248_VID_TRK_1500.mp4

Thanks for your help, Richard,

We use a Sagemcom player, in a set-up-box from Sagemcom. The URLs rtsp://IP:554/vod/_defaultVHost_/audio/tst/musica1.mp4 and rtsp://IP:554/vod/_definst_/audio/tst/musica1.mp4 plays sucessfully in VLC, but not in set-up-box. We've in production Wowza 2.2.4 and plays OK. We only change the version of Wowza to 3.1.2 in dev cenario, without change our app.

BTW, we use the default instalation, not change VOD settings.

Regards,

Guilherme

Guilherme,

The url with "_defaultHVhost_" is unusual and is not doing anything regarding VHosts but it will work, it is the correct form. The 2nd url is also correct and more standard, using "_definst_". (For vod it doesn't really matter what the application instance name is)

Have you followed these?
http://www.wowza.com/forums/content....-RTP-streaming
http://www.wowza.com/forums/content....P-RTP-playback

For the STB, try adding these two properties to the Application.xml /RTP /Properties list:

<Property>
<Name>forceMPEGTSOut</Name>
<Value>true</Value>
<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>
<Property>
<Name>rtpWrapMPEGTS</Name>
<Value>true</Value>
<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>

Just a hunch, but also try: rtsp://IP:554/vod/_definst_/mp4:audio/tst/musica1.mp4

[guilacerda]

Richard,

I tried with forceMPEGSOUT and rtpWrapMPEGTS, but the error are the same. I followed these tutorials.

Randall,

I tried with mp4: just the way you suggest and with filename. Same error.

I don't understand why this happened with Wowza 3.1.2 and not with Wowza 2.2.4. The same app, same Sagem STB and same midia.

[rrlanham]

There is indication of UDP problem. Make sure all UDP (0-65535) ports are open between Wowza and the STB.

Revert to INFO level logging, then add this Property to the Application.xml /RTP /Properties list

<Property>
 <Name>debugRTSPSession</Name>
 <Value>true</Value>
 <Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>

Then restart Wowza and test again. If still not working, zip up conf and logs and send to support@wowza.com. Include a link to this thread for reference.
