Connect .stream to shoutcast through SSH2

Hello people, we are developing an panel that uses SSH2 to create .stream files that connect to shoutcast servers.

We have already managed to develop a code that creates the .stream in wonza file server, but we are struggling to make .stream connect to shoucast as the tutorial below. (Remember that we have to make it through SSH2). Does anyone know any way to perform step 2 (2. Start the stream: ) through SSH?

  1. Start the stream:

Hi,

You can connect to a server running Wowza Streaming Engine and create a .stream file in your application’s content folder.

Once the file is created, you can have a Wowza module enabled that will monitor the content folder for the .stream files that aer created, and when a .stream file is detected it will try and publish that stream.

Please take a look at the "How to monitor content folder for .sdp and .stream files to start publishing streams (ServerListenerStartupStreamsMonitor)" forum article describing how to enable and use this module.

Hi Zoran, thanks for reply,

I modified the file and stood as the code below. But it did not work.

Ps: the name of my application is shoutcast (I created the folder content too).
