Wowza RTSP stream authentication

Does anyone know how to set a password to a Wowza RTSP stream?

Now I can use the stream rtsp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/mystream but I want something like rtsp://username:password@:127.0.0.1:1935/live/mystream.

Thanks.

Solution

  • Try setting to digest for the live's application.xml and set your username/password in the /conf/publish.password

    Note - there are two different settings - PlayMethod and PublishMethod. If you're trying to secure playback, you'll want to use digest on the PlayMethod as well.
