need help to stream vod

[barichon]

Hello,

I hope I'm gonna be precise and explain as good as possible "what i want to do".

I'am in a configuration "Liverepater-origin" <-----> "live repater-edge", i'm using so an application to deliver live stream.

I want to be able to stream vod files but using the same application (with liverepeater- stream type) !

I know it's a strange request but as we customized a bit wowza install we really need an intelligent way r a tips to stream vod over this streamtype configuration.

Could you guys help me ?

Thx by advance,

Regards,

Do you mean you want to publish vod files as a live stream? If so you can use our server-side publishing system:

You can then stream the result using the live repeater.

No, I'm looking for the way to publish live and vod with the same application.xml...

However your answer is very interesting,

Thx by advance for your answers.

You can switch StreamType per NetStream in the client:

If the Application.xml /StreamType is "default" you can stream live like this:

netconnection.call("setStreamType",null,"live");
var nsLive:NetStream = new NetStream(netconnection);

Hi,

Can you tell me more about this, i don't understand...
With this I will be able to deliver vod and live events using the same applications.xml ?

Is that modification bring to any limitations ?

If you have an application named "vod" with StreamType "default", and you use it to stream static content, for example like this:

netconnection.connect("rtmp://[wowza-address]:1935/vod");
var nsVOD:NetStream = new NetStream(netconnection);
nsVod.play("Extremists.flv");

You can use also use this application to stream to "publish live and vod with the same application.xml"

netconnection.call("setStreamType",null,"live");
var nsLive:NetStream = new NetStream(netconnection);

Note that you call setStreamType using the netconnection before you use that netconnection to create a new NetStream.
