Question / Help Entering Port and Stream Name

Hi,

I have a question regarding streaming to a Wowza server with OBS.

I need to set the stream-port to 1935 and provide authentication credentials and a stream name.

I found out how to tweak the preset.ini with the authentication data. But how do I set the port and the stream name?

I tried it with the URL:

rtmp://xxxservername.de:1935/appname

but it didn't work.

Any idea?

Thanks

Robert
 
As I wrote...

"I found out how to tweak the preset.ini with the authentication data."

So this is not the problem. Again my question:

Where do I input the stream name and the stream port?

Thanks.

In the RTMP URL as you are doing. If the server is refusing the connection then you should check the server.
 
No it's not the server. It works without problems with Wirecast, FMLE and Teradek Encoders and the same Server. It is an issue with OBS.

I get the following error from OBS:

RTMPSockBuf_Fill, remote host closed connection

It must have something to do with the authentication. In every other encoder I can enter the stream name, port and login data in dedicated fields and that's why it works. In OBS it is very complicated.

What I try to do is to enter this into the RTMP field:

rtmp://serveradress:port/appname/streamname

And I enter the login data into the profile.ini file:

Username=xy
Password=xy

And with that it doesn't work.

Any idea?
 
Anyone who can give an answer to this:

Where to input the Streamname into OBS?

Where to input the Port Number into OBS?

Would it work if I unse the URL field like this:

rtmp://serveradress:port/appname/streamname

Because right now I can't get a connection to my Wowza Server.

Thanks.

"remote host closed connection" means the server (the remote host) closed the connection, not OBS. You should check the server to figure out why it closed the connection.
 
I know that. It is a athentication issue or the streamname/port isn't provided right to the server. I cannot get any logs from the server. It runs in the cloud and I have no admin rights. So I cannot get the logs.

If someone would answer my questions then this would help very much. Because with every other encoder it works on this server. But I want to use OBS for many reasons.

Thanks.

Robert.
