Good Afternoon All,
We just got an Axis P3301 camera and we would like to stream from the camera to the Wowza Media Server, then allow multiple clients to connect to the Wowza Media Server stream instead of directly to the camera stream.
We’re currently using Wowza Media Server 1.6 and we’ve been trying to get the camera to stream to the Wowza server using a SDP file however so far have had no luck. We’ve used any SDP file examples ( with modifications ) that we’ve found in the forums.
We’ve searched through the related forums and we’ve been able to stream the camera to the Wowza server using the rtsp stream from rtsp://:554/axis-media/media.amp and using the server as the wowza server: http:///rtplive
The questions or issues we’ve encountered so far are:
- Can the Wowza Media Server accept the stream from an Axis P3301 camera and re-broadcast that stream to allow multiple clients to connect, with just the Wowza Media Server package or is some other third party software required to re-broadcast a stream ( Such as Wirecast )?
1a. If this is possible with Wowza alone what would be the process or steps for getting this up and running? ( Or are there forum posts that I’ve overlooked that could get me started? )
-
If this scenario were up and running are there specific ports that a viewer needs to gather the rtmp stream from, or should a viewer be able to connect to the rtmp:///rtplive and load the stream?
-
As far as the axis camera, are there any adjustments that can be made to the rtp settings to allow this scenario to work more smoothly.
-
I tried creating a SDP file using VLC but had no luck. Is there some other method for SDP creation that has worked fairly well?
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated!
