Hi,

  • Supported Playback Platforms: Play rtmp protocol on desktop and auto switch to http protocol on another device… How to config it?

This is done in the player receiving the stream from Wowza, I recommend taking a look at our JW Player article.

  • Support adaptive bitrate. How to config it?

This is done using a .smil file which references the streams you’re able to play withing the ABR stream. Please see the guide below for assistance, examples on the player side can be found in the article above.

How to do adaptive bitrate streaming

  • Player: What is best player for wowza ( i know jwplayer)

Our recommendation is JW player but we do have articles for other players such as Flowplayer.

  • Security content : user only watch video streaming throught on web, cannot download direct from IDM or rtmpdumper…

Please see our Media security overview for security options. Using SecureToken and StreamLock will reduce the risk of anyone getting the content you’re wanting to stream.

You can get a Trial license for testing Wowza Streaming Engine before you purchase.
