Wowza and iPhone SDK4 -> not working anymore?

**AngeDeLaMort** · 06-25-2010, 06:33 AM

I was wondering if it was a problem with my server settings: I stream audio only and it seems to work fine on iphone safari on OS 3.0 to 3.2. But on OS 4.0, it seems that it just doesn't work? Is somebody else is experiencing the same issue or is it just me?

I update IPhone 3gs from OS 3.2 to OS4 and haven't seen any change in stream capabilities. Make sure the Safari Plugins is turned on: Settings > Safari > Plugins "On"

I don't see any plugin settings in OS 4? Do you need to do something special to have access to it in 4.0?

Also, I don't think you can install 3.2 on your iphone since it's only a release for the iPad.

Sorry, you're right. That setting doesn't exist anymore.

I'm pretty sure I had OS 3.2 on my IPhone 3gs. I can't confirm with my phone because I updated, but you can search "iphone os 3.2", lots of results for that.

Try playing the Wowza IPhone sample:

Interesting, the sample works fine. So, it's probably a problem with the settings on my end?

I have tried many different settings with the server and still no success with my audio stream (aac). I will try with different media to see if the problem is with the source data. But it's weird because it works fine in the other OS as I said previously.

**AngeDeLaMort** · 06-25-2010, 11:46 AM

triple post!

Ok, I've done several tests with my local server. It seems that only video is able to go through the new OS4 media player. An audio only stream doesn't seem to play. Even simple on demand mp3 streaming isn't working. I will try to contact apple support since Wowza works fine on previous OS.

Would be nice if someone else could confirm that as well.

**rrlanham** · 06-25-2010, 12:19 PM

Do you have a url I can test? Also, are you looking at the access logs? Wowza reports video and audio format, profile and level when you start playing.

Right now, it's impossible to put the url accessible, but I'll see what I can do.

Using the sound stream: Everything seems fine server side.

For the MP3 test: Looks like Wowza doesn't support it yet

Whoops, I replied to the wrong thread here:
http://www.wowzamedia.com/forums/sho...ghlight=iphone

I have a similar problem. I think my steam was working fine with the iphone OS 3, but not with 4.

Here is a link. Can anyone get this to load with iphone OS3? I have 4 now, and it doesn't work.
