Wowza recording rtmp stream to S3


I am on a Amazon AWS instance which has Wowza Media Server installed. I am trying to record streaming videos to an S3 bucket. Basically trying to follow this tutorial.

I've mounted the bucket (2 of them) so when I run df -h command I get

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/xvda1            9.9G  1.3G  8.1G  14% /
tmpfs                 3.7G     0  3.7G   0% /dev/shm
/dev/xvdb             414G  237M  393G   1% /media/ephemeral0
s3fs                  256T     0  256T   0% /mnt/s3
s3fs                  256T     0  256T   0% /mnt/s3-1

next I edited this file /usr/local/WowzaMediaServer/conf/live/Application.xml because I assume I want to record live streams. I added the <Module> and <Property> information in there according to the tutorial above.

But when I stream live from Adobe Flash Media Encoder no video is saved in the S3 bucket. Can anyone point me when I am doing wrong or if I missed a step here?


Solution

  • Answer: got to set <StreamType> to live-record in place of live in the config Application.xml file.
