Hi,

I’ve just tested the stream using my iPhone 5S and nDVR seems to be working correctly.

If the Apple iOS device you’re testing with is running iOS 8 or above it may not be able to play the nDVR stream.

The nDVR stream should work without issue using Android devices that support cupertino streaming (Apple HLS).

I recommend testing with different devices and use the test players in Wowza Streaming Engine Manager (WSEM) for playback with Flash HDS, Microsoft Silverlight and MPEG-DASH.

the problem is not Wowza but the player

not all player support nDVR playback when the live stream is present

If you are using built-in player on the device, you will face this issue most of the time

I would suggest you integrate another player to control the playback across the board

Hi,

Please confirm that you’re able to play the stream using the nDVR functionality when using the HTTP Test Players in Wowza Streaming Engine Manager (WSEM).

I recommend creating a ticket by sending an email to support@wowza.com.

When creating a ticket, please ensure that you include a ZIP file containing the following directories and a link to this thread for reference.

[Wowza-Install]/conf/

[Wowza-Install]/logs/

[Wowza-Install]/transcoder/

[Wowza-Install]/manager/logs/

Please make sure you provide logs which show Wowza server starting.

If you are not sure how to get this information please see the following tutorial.

How to create a compressed zip file in Windows, OS X, and Linux

  • If you have a live stream please outline the type of encoder in use along with the encoding settings for the stream.

  • If you are using a .stream file to start re-streaming please provide this.

  • If you are using multiple bitrates (ABR) then please provide the SMIL file associated with your configuration.

Hi,

I recommend creating a ticket so we can look at this further.

Please remember to link to this thread and include the directories and files listed above.

It appears to work without issue using the JW player wizard.
