.ts live stream

Hi

I’ am going to stream for my customer with wowza and here is their specification

for live stream

Example HLS:

http://stream_1_live.m3u8

Example Transportstream:

http://stream_1_live.ts

I am OK with HLS but i don’t understand .ts, as far as i know wowza uses for (mpeg-ts) mpegts.stream ending in link.

How can I stream .ts stream ?

thx

Hi

You can use Wowza to re stream MPEG-TS by creating a stream file within a Wowza Application. The stream file contains the address of the MPEG-TS stream. An example we have within our documentation describes the use of ffmpeg to create an MPEG-TS stream, which is ingested by Wowza listening on port 10000:

The following article demonstrates how you can publish the MPEG-TS live stream using Wowza and stream files:

Hi,

Try adding the forceMPEGTSOut and rtpWrapMPEGTS Properties set to “true” in the Application.xml /RTP Properties container:

<Property>
	<Name>forceMPEGTSOut</Name>
	<Value>true</Value>
	<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>
<Property>
	<Name>rtpWrapMPEGTS</Name>
	<Value>true</Value>
	<Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>

Maybe the box supports cupertino streaming? Then you just need a HLS URL like this:

http://[wowza-address]:1935/vod/sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8

The chunks that are delivered to the player will be .ts files.

Otherwise, you can use rtsp for playback, which is what is affected by the forceMPEGTSOut Property setting.

rtsp://[wowza-address]:1935/vod/sample.mp4

No, sorry, vod streaming of .ts files is not supported. Most STBs at least support RTSP streaming. I would try that with those Property settings.
