Hello, I have a Wowza server setup and I am able to create a live stream or vod just fine. I am however failing to find a module that will work for my Drupal website to use my Wowza content. From what I am gathering previously there was a swf tools module that worked for vod in Drupal 6 and earlier. This is currently not supported in Drupal 7, also I have been messing around with a Live Streaming module from video whisper but I am failing to get this module to work correctly. Anyone have a solution on how to get my content on my Drupal 7 website? Perhaps I will need to just use php-code and not a module? Anyone else doing live streaming and/or on a Drupal 7 website? Please share any code or modules to help me, thanks!
Take a look at this guide:
Remember the player running in a user’s browser is what connects to and streams from Wowza. So you need a module for JW player or other player system, there might also be a Flowplayer module. There is probably not a Wowza module for Drupal, unless it involves a player.

I use another approach with CMS systems, to avoid modules and editing rules: find a way to make an IFrame to load your player. That way you can maintain it outside the CMS. You might be able add HTML IFrame directly or there might be some CMS hoops to jump through, but probably much easier either way than using contributed cms module.

I have added an IFrame to Drupal. I think you can do it with plain html if you have permission, and/or there is some Drupal-way to do it.

I use Joomla which is similar, and do it all with an iframe module exactly the way Richard suggests.
Drupal iframe: http://drupal.org/project/iframe
I did see this article which I tried to follow when I was using Drupal 6 and it worked for my vod but not live streams and it utilizes swf tools which is not available yet for Drupal 7… it does look like they started a project but I doubt it will be ready any time soon. I will search for a module specifically for JW player and see if I cant find anything.
Did you ever have any luck implementing this on Drupal 7? Before diving in I was hoping to get some validation that the code works. Thanks.
