I have installed Wowza Streaming Engine on Ubuntu desktop 14.04.2 lts 64-bit and I’m trying to livestream from an Aver SF2111H-BR camera.
When I try to view the stream it’s only a black screen even when it says that it is playing.
I have managed to get this working on my local Mac computer. It seems like some package is missing?
I have also tried to preview the stream in VLC with no success.
