Can I use Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder with Wowza Streaming Engine?


I was successfully able to use vlc player as a live stream encoder with Wowza Streaming Engine by following this tutorial https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-use-vlc-as-a-live-stream-encoder-with-wowza-media-server-mpeg-ts. Now I want to do the same with Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder and Wowza Streaming Engine. Is it possible? Also if I target end users with desktops, which live encoder should I use with Wowza Streaming Engine?


Solution

  • Yes, obviously you can use Adobe FMLE to encode the stream.

    It does not matter what encoder you use. The client do not know anything about your encoder. Wowza accept input stream as rtmp, or rtsp.

    Wowza is a multiprotocol server that offers multiple options to deliver the video (HLS, rtmp, HDS,...)
