HTML 5 video tag and nDVR

Hi,

I’m currently using the nDVR add-on. To play the ‘DVR-ed’ stream on the iPad, i use both the direct link (i.e., http://[IP-address]:1935/[app]/[test.stream]/playlist.m3u8?DVR) in Safari and the HTML 5 video tag (with the same link in the ‘src’ attribute). In the latter case, most often i get some errors (in wowza logs) like this one:

ERROR server comment - HTTPStreamerAdapterCupertinoStreamer.onPlaylist: java.lang.NullPointerException

java.lang.NullPointerException

etc., it goes on.

I have no idea what this logs mean. Any help would be much appreciated!.

Germán,

I’d like to look at the logs/, your conf/ as well as a simple example of the HTML/URL you are using to access the recorded stream.

zip this up and please email this to support@wowza.com and reference this thread.

Thanks,

Scott
