Iphone won't play live stream, but will play recorded file after stream stops

I am having some difficulty getting the live streaming to work with the iphone. I can stream via either rtmp and rtp to a flash player and by prepending the stream to mp4:filename.sdp get it to record it, which will play back fine on the iphone. But during the broadcast the iphone will not access the stream. As soon as I stop the stream and refresh the link in iphone safari, it will play the recorded file. Am I doing something wrong?

the link to the file I am accessing on the iphone looks like this:

http://services.sagu.edu:1935/live/liveiphone.sdp/playlist.m3u8

It will also play vod files fine using this

http://services.sagu.edu:1935/vod/liveiphone.sdp/playlist.m3u8

and also will play the recording once the broadcast stops, but during the broadcast it throws the “this movie could not be played” error

I am assuming I have something wrong in the application?

Thanks!

Check /conf/live/Application.xml /Streams /LiveStreamPacketizers

It should be:

<LiveStreamPacketizers>cupertinostreamingpacketizer</LiveStreamPacketizers>

You’re welcome. Thanks for the update and nice comment. Glad it’s working.

That worked! Awesome, needs some tuning (about a 30 second lag) but that worked, you are amazing.

Well, it’s because that really made my day. That was the last tech hurdle for us to roll out our new system. Test run tonight and live next week!
