Generate RTMP instead of m3u8 to play streaming in Android

Hello,

I wanna play camera encoded streaming to another android device so how to generate RTMP url instead of m3u8 because m3u8 does not work in android.

Most Android devices support Apple HLS. Some support RTSP. I have not seen any Android devices support RTMP natively. You would likely need an application to play back RTMP on your Android device. We can provide no recommendations for RTMP or RTSP players on Android.

The article below provides a list of how to form your URL for your specific player.

For example:

RTMP: rtmp://[wowza-address]:1935/live/myStream

RTSP: rtsp://[wowza-address]:1935/live/myStream

Apple HLS: http://[wowza-address]:1935/live/myStream/playlist.m3u8

MPEG-DASH: http://[wowza-address]:1935/live/myStream/manifest.mpd

Adobe HDS: http://[wowza-address]:1935/live/myStream/manifest.f4m

Microsoft Smooth Streaming: http://[wowza-address]:1935/live/myStream/Manifest
