Problem in live video streaming from android camera

I am trying to stream live footage from android camera to another android device through Wowza server engine. Both the devices are developed by us.

LOCAL SETUP:

• Created wifi hotspot on laptop and connected both devices to the wifi.

• Disabled windows firewall on wowza server.

• Opened TCP port 1935 in windows firewall on wowza server.

Result: Audio streaming successful. Green coloured screen coming in starting and then video starts but with great amount of lagging and getting stuck in between.

CLOUD SETUP:

• Installed wowza server on AWS instance.

• Opened TCP port 1935.

• Disabled windows firewall on AWS windows instance.

• Asked Neeraj Sir to open all UDP ports (0-65535).

• Created user in wowza server manager for source authentication.

Result: Audio streaming successful. Screen is blank.

We even tried streaming on AWS server using GoCoder app but result is same. Audio is getting streamed successfully but screen in blank.

We are sure that server settings are fine because when we use ffmpeg command line utility to stream on wowza server everything works fine.

Apart from the above mentioned firewall/port settings what else could be reason?
