To break the silence let’s focus on one thing then:
Encoder redundancy by having two live encoders streaming to the same Wowza Streaming Engine server, to the same application and to the same stream name:
Live encoder 1:
Server URL: rtmp://50.50.50.50/live
Stream name: [enc1]_myStream
Live encoder 2:
Server URL: rtmp://50.50.50.50/live
Stream name: [enc2]_myStream
Public streaming URL would then be:
http://50.50.50.50/live/myStream/playlist.m3u8
It would be prioritizing the primary incoming stream from encoder 1:
rtmp://50.50.50.50/live/[enc1]_myStream
If encoder 1 disconnects, the secondary stream takes over:
rtmp://50.50.50.50/live/[enc2]_myStream
Is it it possible to achieve encoder redundancy like this, without adding additional Wowza Streaming Engine servers into the equation?
