Hello,

I have a Teradek Vidiu RTMP streaming device, which requires a 'listening' server application to push the stream to.

Is it possible to configure MonaServer to accept RTMP data pushed from the Vidiu and serve that data out to clients upon request?

If so, can anyone suggest/link to an example of this configuration in the Monaserver.ini file?

Thanks.

I think I solved my own issue... After unzipping MonaServer file and running it, I didn't realize that I needed to manually create a subfolder in www to match my streaming application name. Once I did that. the VidiU connected without issue, and I am able to view the stream from redirected from MonaServer without creating any ini file at all.

Example: I created a "live" subfolder in the MonaServer www folder, and setup my VidiU to name the stream "test"

To view this stream, I simply direct my player to rtmp://MonaServerIP:1935/live/test and it works perfectly.

Now I need to see if I can get username and password authentication working...

Hi,

I am pleased to see that you have faced your issue. In general when the subfolder doesn't exists and you are trying to connect to you have a message "Application 'xxx' doesn't exists in MonaServer's logs.

About authentication you could be able to debug your app by editing the "main.lua" file in your subfolder and creating the functions called by your client (see Communication between server and client). Do you see some logs showing that some method doesn't exists?

Hi!

I'm trying to get my Vidiu working with MonaServer but no success... Would you tell me the exact steps you did to make it work? At a beginners level, since I seem to be unable to figure it out myself... :)
