PushPublish from an Edge application not working

Hi All,

We are trying to pushpublish a stream from an edge application.

This is our setup:

A live origin application on Server 1 receives a stream from our encoder.

An edge application on Server 2 pulls the stream from Server 1 and has push publish module set to send to Edgecast.

We cannot get it to push the stream to Edgecast from the edge application.

If we send a stream directly to an application with PushPublish activated, it works fine.

Is there anything else needed to be able to push a stream from an Edge application?

Thanks

Hello there and welcome to the Wowza support forum.

You will need to create a .stream file that points to the orgin stream, start it in the stream manager or StartupStreams.xml then you can use the push publishing module to send it out. Those are the basic steps.

So you would have on the edge /content/origin.stream

Edge: StreamManger start origin.stream on edge application with MediaCaster type “liverepeater”

PushPublish module installed on edge pushes origin.stream

I hope this helps.
