External Links Streaming RTMP Not working

  • I follow all the steps to add external urls as outlined in your FAQ. But the Short code will not show a video.

    If I use the JWPlayer Publish embed code generator in the JWPlayer account, My stream works perfectly but is not playing on Mobile devices.

    I stream dim Amazon EC3 using Wowza
    This is my URL

    rtmp://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp

    How do I add this link to the WordPress Media Library so the short code works properly and the resulting video i playable in Mobile devices???

    Is this correct.

    In Post >
    Add Media > Add External Media >

    Media URL: rtmp://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp
    (click Add to Library Button)

    Fill in Title Caption and Description fields >

    Link URL: ???? RTMP URL??? Left Blank???
    Select Thumbnail and Player >

    Click “Insert With JW Player” Button

    The short code is added to the post [jwplayer player=”1″ mediaid=”2323″]

    but viewing the post front end shows a back box without any video, displaying the error message “Error loading player: No playable sources found”

    WTF. I did it all correct. still not working!?!?!?

    There is an issue with the media manger and RTMP.

    For now, use:

    [jwplayer file=”rtmp://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp”]

    Regarding mobile, do you have an m3u8 link?

    Yes Wowza provides both URLs when live streaming.

    I would want to use rtmp as the mail url and m3u8 as the ball back since the latency of the RTMP is only 5 seconds and the m3u8 is nearly 30 .

    How can I use both urls at the same time with JWPlayer Plugin?

    RTMP
    rtmp://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp

    M3U8
    https://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp/playlist.m3u8

    You would do it like this:

    [jwplayer sources=”{ file: ‘rtmp://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp’},{ file:’https://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp/playlist.m3u8′}”]

    [jwplayer sources="{ file: 'rtmp://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp'},{ file:'https://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp/playlist.m3u8'}"]
    This updated code does Not work.

    These DO work
    [jwplayer file="rtmp://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp"]
    AND
    [jwplayer file="https://23.23.81.12:1935/live/myStream.sdp/playlist.m3u8" androidhls="true"]

    With some CSS I can hide the player that is not intend for the desktop or mobile browser, which ever the same may be. BUT this is a silly work around.

    The player should handle all this for me seamlessly.

    The code above should work. Do you have a link?

    Sadly, the unified short code does not work.

    Oh well.

    My live streaming testing environment is not streaming 24/7 so I can provide you a link but there will be no content to review.

    For MY issues I will just have to deal with this in CSS by hiding and showing the various version of the JWPlayer code on desktop or mobile devices.

    Not a great work around but one that will… work.

    I would like to see a link when the streams are up.
