Streaming Flash RTMP AAC/HE-AACv2 Audio to iPhone with complete metadata and static graphic images.
Requires Orban Opticodec-PC 3.1 Streaming Audio Encoder to Wowza Media Server Pro 1.7 with current patch.
RTMP AAC/HE-AACv1/v2 audio streams from Wowza Media Server can now be played on iPhone using Tuner2 HiFi Radio player.
This is the first and only iPhone App with RTMP Flash AAC/HE-AACv1/v2 audio support. It also supports SHOUTcast/Icecast2 ICY and RTSP/RTP protocols.
This player uses the genuine Fraunhofer IIS AAC/HE-AACv1/v2 decoder for absolute superb sound.
Using RTMP at 32kbps is about twice as efficient as an audio only MPEG-TS chunked file stream. In other words, to deliver the same 32kbps audio using MPEG-TS HTTP file chunking will cost almost 80kbps to deliver! For mobile environments, this is unacceptable. The content is also secure, since it is a real stream from a streaming server rather than a progressive download from a web server.
