RTSP Relay

Hello.

I’m planning an application which relay RTSP streams from Cameras (input stream)

to multiple clients.(output stream)

Is it possible to configure the Wowza

  • connecting to a camera only when client request the stream of the camera?

  • and disconnecting to the camera when last client leaves?

Thank you.

Yes, this is possible to configure through MediaCaster and we have several clients who have this workflow. The stream will only begin when a viewer seeks to connect to the stream and will disconnect after the last viewer disconnects.

Here is how you set it up:
