I’m am trying to send a 20 mbps RTMP stream from one Wowza to another Wowza 89ms away.
I’ve calculated my correct send and receive buffers to compensate for the distance but am seeing diminishing returns as I raise these buffers higher and higher. Using an ffmpeg relay on this Wowza I’m seeing it max out at .93x speed and 17mbps of the 20mbps stream. I can’t get it any higher.
My current buffer is set to 300,000 on both send and recieve for both machines. I see no change from 250,000 and above. Machine resources on either end don’t seem to
Has anyone else had to overcome distant stream targets and how did you solve this? I’m able to stream anywhere in US (max latency to anywhere is around 68ms). 89ms seems to be just too far. There aren’t any closer machines I can use to relay from this server due to geographic location.
