Republishing edited video stream

[jasonkc]

i started the stream from Two Way Streaming Demo Page, and could play it on the same page...but the RTMP URL seems incorrect.

 

[jasonkc]

also, there seems to be missing of REST API in my installation:

curl -0 -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST -d '{"streamName": "rpdc78", "rtmpUrl":"rtmp://rtmp.flashphoner.com:1935/live"}' http://52.221.194.95:8081/rest-api/push/startup

{"exception":"com.flashphoner.rest.server.exception.NotFoundException","path":"/rest-api/push/startup","error":"Not Found","message":"Can not start transponder","timestamp":1605332855436,"status":404}

Settings in flashphoner.properties file for test:

rtmp_transponder_stream_name_prefix =
rtmp_transponder_full_url = true

Using the Two-Way Streaming example, a WebRTC stream has been published on WCS. The screenshot shows a stream named "a2db".

Using the ffmpeg command, we capture the published stream via RTMP and relay it to another RTMP stream on the same WCS. The stream name will be "stream-test"

ffmpeg -i rtmp://WCS.address:1935/live/a2db -preset ultrafast -acodec aac -vcodec h264 -f flv rtmp:// WCS.address:1935/live/stream-test

Enjoy!
The screenshot shows the playback of the stream "stream-test":

About republishing to Facebook: we reproduced the issue and raised internal ticket WCS-2979. We inform on results of the check.

Strange...i did the same thing:

But still see the same input/output error disregard of whether i used public/private IP or even localhost in the ffmpeg command:

Have you restarted the WCS after making settings in the flashpfoner.properties file?

Command to restart the server:

systemctl restart webcallserver

 

[jasonkc]

yes i did....many times indeed...;(

Please provide us SSH access to the server using this form, we will check

Based on the test results, we found out that your port 1935, which is used for RTMP, is busy by Nginx.

Changed port in flashphoner.properties file to 1941

rtmp.port = 1941

Unfortunately, testing with the new port value failed because the port is closed.

Please open port 1941 on the firewall and test.
Or
Reconfigure Nginx to free port 1935 and set WCS back to use 1935 for RTMP

rtmp.port = 1935

 

[jasonkc]

I have stopped nginx, but now seeing this:

 

[Max]

We changed the RTMP server port to 1941 yesterday

rtmp.port = 1941

as mentioned above.
Please remove this string from flashphoner.properties file and restart WCS. 1935/tcp should be listened after that.

When the setting is set in the flashphoner.properties file

rtmp.port = 1941

Any free port can be specified as the RTMP port.

The link to the RTMP stream will look like this

rtmp://Your.WCS.name: 1941/live/stream1

For default setting if no line is specified in flashphoner.properties file
the link to the RTMP stream will look like this

rtmp://Your.WCS.name: 1935/live/stream1

 

[jasonkc]

noted, it works now....thanks
