create live publishing streams on request from .net

I’d like to:

  1. have publishing points created on request by executing a command external to wowza

  2. communicate the new publishing point address to a user

  3. restrict access only to the user IP

  4. the user will push video and audio to wowza

4.1) broadcast with no restrictions the live stream

4.2) archive a copy in .mp4 format on the server

  1. destroy the publishing point at the end

The client will be running .NET, and push a live feed from a camera to wowza using directshow and a RTP/RTSP/RTMP renderer filter (still evaluating which to choose)

This is a possible solution I got after looking at the articles, but it seems this requires too much coding so maybe I’m missing something very big (“too much” when compared to the SDK offered by the old windows media server solution we are using now and are considering to replace)

1, 2, 5) expose a webservice from inside wowza like this https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-add-a-web-service-interface-to-wowza-media-server-and-integrate-with-net-dotnet

that would programmaticaly do the actions explained here https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-publish-and-play-a-live-stream-mpeg-ts-based-encoder (but I’m not yet sure how, any hints?)

  1. https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-limit-publishing-of-live-streams-by-ip-list

  2. In case of the RTP directshow filter: AVC+AAC > MPEG-TS > RTP > UDP

4.1 4.2) use an application with a StreamType live-record

Can you confirm this is correct and the best one when using wowza?

thanks

You will need to follow this guide to start an mpeg-ts stream.

It sounds like you might need help with this. You can post in the Find a Consultant Forum, or write to support@wowza.com and ask for the list of independent consultants.

It should work for MediaCaster streams too. The publish command runs when they are started. Is there a WARN line above the app-start x-event in the logs? That is where you see message about incorrectly loading Modules. Did you re-start Wowza after adding the collection .jar file?

Richard

Check the [wowza-install-dir]/lib folder to see if your project’s .jar file is there.

If you have updated Wowza, you might find it in the /lib folder of the previous install.

The easiest way to fix that in the IDE is delete the project’s build.xml, then delete the project (without deleting files), then create it again with the exact same name. You will get all your work back and the IDE will be lined up with the new install.

Hi,

I think the problem is the type of stream you are trying to protect.

The module will only protect against streams that are actively published to an application on Wowza using an RTMP connection. This type of connection does not require an action on Wowza to start the publishing. It could be extended to also work with RTSP encoders that use RTSP ANNOUNCE but it would not work with other publishers / encoder types where Wowza must request the stream or start a MediaCaster to receive it.

Your stream is from an mpeg-ts encoder and while it pushes the stream to a udp port on the Wowza server, Wowza needs to start a mediaCaster to be able to actually receive the stream. This can be automatically triggered when a player connects or manually with the Stream Manager or StartupStreams.xml

With mpeg-ts and some rtp streams, the encoder pushes the stream data to a udp port on the receiving server. With UDP, any computer in the world that can make a connection to a remote UDP port can send data to it. It is up to the receiving end to determine if it wants to do anything with that data. The only way you can prevent unwanted udp connections is to block them using a firewall or router. Using firewall rules, you can let the valid connections through and block or dump the invalid ones.

You can prevent someone publishing an mpeg-ts stream by removing the .stream file and shutting down the mediaCaster. If they know they are supposed to stop then they will normally shut down their encoder. If they won’t go away then the only thing you can do is block them in the firewall. That is not easy from within Wowza as it would require specific code however, there may be a third party method for controlling the firewall dynamically.

Roger.

thanks for the hint

I implemented everything but I can’t get 3) to work:

even with the unmodified module from wms-plugin-collection.jar the publish method is never called (“Overriding Publish” is not printed to console and nothing gets blocked).

Does the module presented in https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-limit-publishing-of-live-streams-by-ip-list work only when streaming from flash?

Thanks

there isn’t a warning when loading the ModuleOverridePublishRestrictIP module

yes, I restarted wowza after changing the config

conf\live\Application.xml (it’s based on the default live config, plus a couple of modules and the rtp IPs)

this is a new installation

to troubleshoot this issue with the ModuleOverridePublishRestrictIP sample I’m using the unmodified wms-plugin-collection.jar I found in WowzaServerAddOnCollection.zip

another .jar (LTWebcast.jar) I built with the IDE loads correctly (it’s a ServerListener in Server.xml)

wms-plugin-collection.jar is in the same directory http://imgkk.com/i/4evz.png , is loaded by the live\Application.xml but publish doesn’t get called when starting publishing

thanks for the detailed explanation
