Play rtmp stream in browser

[Radu]

Is it possible to play an RTMP stream from Wowza, in-browser, using websockets or WebRTC? I did not find any documentation regarding this.

There are two ways to get stream from Wowza
1) RTSP
If you publish RTMP stream to Wowza server

rtmp://wowzahost:1935/live/stream1

It is generally reachable as

rtsp://wowzahost:1935/live/stream1

So you can just play this RTSP URL on WCS server. WCS will pull the stream by RTSP.
2) RTMP push
You can push existing RTMP stream to WCS-server.
Please checkout Wowza docs how to implement this.

We have also implemented another way - RTMP pulling (I believe you ask about pulling).
However it is currently unavailable in the stable branch of WCS server.
We plan to release this branch in a month.

Ah yes, it's the RTMP pulling that we need. Ok, great! We just purchased a monthly subscription to use the WebRTC -> RTMP (Wowza) publishing but we are looking forward for the pulling part. Will that be provided under the same product license?

Yes, RTMP pulling will be supported under the same license.
