Hello @changil_shin,

This issue was resolved with an update to Wowza Streaming Engine:
https://www.wowza.com/docs/known-issues-with-wowza-streaming-engine

Resolved: Decoding fails for some H.264 live and VOD sources

With Wowza Streaming Engine 4.8.13 and later, some live and VOD sources with H.264 video fail upon publishing or playback due to a decoding error. The error is logged with a message similar to the following:

ERROR 500 - H264Utils.decodeAVCC : java.lang.Exception: Expected to parse SPS of length 28 bytes, but 16 bits remained

Solution

Update to the latest version of Wowza Streaming Engine. This problem is fixed in Wowza Streaming Engine 4.8.15 and later.

Regards,
Alex
