Cannot stream mp3 files over https

Hi,

I am trying to stream my videos and audio using Wowza Streaming Engine v4.7.4 on Windows 2012 Server. My mp4 video files stream properly; however, I’m having issues trying to stream mp3 files directly. Is there a preset or some setting we need to add that I’m missing to allow support for streaming mp4 files? FYI, the error I see is “unknown acodec:mp4a.40.34”, when I’m trying to stream mp3 files. This is over streamlock link and I’m adding /playlist.m3u8 at the end of the Playback URL.

I’ve also already followed the steps for single streams from https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-add-resolution-and-codec-metadata-to-ios-streams. I added these property items to [install-dir]/conf/[application]/Application.xml:

<Property>
	<Name>cupertinoCalculateCodecs</Name>
	<Value>true</Value>
	<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>
<Property>
	<Name>cupertinoCalculateResolution</Name>
	<Value>true</Value>
	<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>

Can anyone help me figure out what the issue is?

Also, none of the media plays over iphone or ios devices, but I’m guessing that’s a totally different problem.

Hi @Thaddeus Valk, that is odd, it should be working for you. Can you please submit a support ticket and we will take a closer look at it with you. You can do that here:

Look at this question asked previously in the forum.
