RTMP stream playback security

Hello all,

I was trying out secure rtmp playback while using the option to protect all streams using hash 256 algorithm and shared secret. I faced a NetStream.play.failed error and connection was closed. I had checked from the examples provided that my hash generation was correct. Also I had deselected the option to use TEA for secure rtmp and also the option to use secure rtmp connection.

I had the following questions -

  1. What can be other causes of error in this scenario ?

  2. Also is it necessary to mention wowzatokenstarttime and wowzatokenendtime as zero always ?

  3. What is the correct order for providing these parameters for hash generation ? Is there a fixed order ?

  4. Is this a licensing issue ? because I am currently using a trial license for the streaming engine.

Thanks in advance.

@Jermaine Hemby could You please help me out with those questions ? Thanks in advance.
