Help restreaming IP Camera to website

Advanced Thank you for your help with this.

I have followed the article “How to re-stream video from an IP camera (RTSP/RTP re-streaming)” and with have it working on my workstation. I can see the Flash video fine. My question is how can I now get this live video on my website? I have shared hosting (GoDaddy) and will need somehow to embed this stream coming from my Wowza workstation server.

Thanks again,

Mike

You may want to take a look at FlowPlayer or JW Player. Tutorials for using different player technolgies are here:

Mike,

You need to install Wowza on a server with a public IP. Restream from that server as you are doing locally. Then put the Flash player on a web server, and connect to the Wowza server as you are doing now to the local copy, but change “localhost” to the public IP address of the server that Wowza is installed on. Wowza and the web server might be on the same server, or different ones.

The camera uses a video and audio codec that are not support by Wowza or Flash.

video: motion JPEG

audio: G.726

The stream will need to be transcoded to H.264/AAC using something like VLC, MComms or Ripcode before you send it to Wowza to work properly.

Hello, I would like stream some Airlive (Ovislink) cameras. RTSP is working: rtsp://80.83.73.230/h.264/media.amp. I hope I did everything same as in manual. (app rtplive, conf/rtplive with edited xml, camera.stream, then examples\LiveVideoStreaming\client\live.html) with these values - server: rtmp://localhost/rtplive; stream: camera.stream. After click play: Failed to play camera.stream; stream not found. I tried put rtsp directly to stream field, the same result. Could you help me please?
