VOD Playlist to RTMP

[giovanni_civardi]

First of all, Hi! I’m new here so a few words about me: I’m a freelance consultant trying to enter the Streaming world and I’m starting with simple tasks. I’m a newbie here so excuse me for my lack of knowledge.

I’m trying to find a way to convert a VOD playlist into RTMP stream.
Is it possibile with Wowza ? for testing purpose I used OBS adding VOD as Web (embedded) URL and generated the RTMP output and I would achieve same result with a server-side process.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Hello @giovanni_civardi welcome to our forums. I think some more information is needed so we can help you out here. Very exciting that your entering the streaming world!

So are you :

• Trying to play an mp4 file as a live stream? VOD to live?
• Or are you asking how to stream VOD to VOD using RTMP as the playback protocol?
  
  

If it is pre-recorded mp4 as live stream or VOD to live, here is the doc:
