Bug Report OBS / Wowza server

[Assimou]

Hello,

I'm trying to get OBS to connect to a Wowza server, which requires RTMP Authentication. I tested but don't work.

Do you have a solution.

Thanks!

Can't you turn off authentication or something? If you're on a custom server all you really need is a custom playpath more than anything. Reason I say this is because I think there's an issue with wowza authentication at the moment.

The way to use authentication with OBS currently is by editing your profile ini file in %appdata%\obs\profiles - [Publish] section,

UserName=[type username]
Password=[type password]

But I'm pretty sure it doesn't currently work with wowza right now.

Have you tried this: http://www.wowza.com/forums/content.php?233 ?

I've never done it myself nor have I worked with Wowza, but I did come across that link once before.

I got wowza 4.0 to work with this trick but funny... user pass dont need to be real.... and in server setup :RTMP Publishing
Open (no authentication required)

so i recomand if you do that some firewall restriction and Duplicate Stream Names
Reject a second stream with the same name that's published to this application

thanks Boildown,
ModuleSecureURLParams is working on Wowza 3.6!
i use in OBS: rtmp://ec2-***-***-**-**.compute-1.amazonaws.com:1935/live?doPublish=12345

That's pretty cool, thanks for the followup!

I am also trying to stream to Wowza (4), but the stream never seems to connect. I have disabled RTMP authentication, and I can stream successfully in other encoders, but I get nothing when streaming with OBS. I want to confirm the settings in "Broadcast Settings"... Server is for the address and port of the server, and Play Path/Stream Key is for [application-name]/[stream-name], correct?

Application name is normaly also in the server section, though I am not sure if it matters, you might wanna try it:
rtmp://server.ip/app
streamname
Where streamname can also be a playpath or streamkey.
