Stream Types
Wowza Streaming Engine uses named stream types to control the different types of streaming (live, VOD, chat, remote recording, and so on.). Stream types are automatically configured when you create different application types and configure their options in Wowza Streaming Engine Manager. You can also edit the Streams/StreamType property in Application.xml using a text editor to change the stream type for an application. The following table shows the stream types and their uses.
Stream type | Description |
default | VOD |
file | VOD |
live | Publish and play live content (best for one-to-many streaming of live events) |
live-lowlatency | Publish and play live content (best for one-to-one or one-to-few video/audio chat applications) |
live-record | Same as live - in addition content is recorded |
live-record-lowlatency | Same as live-lowlatency - in addition content is recorded |
liverepeater-edge | Publish and play live content across multiple Wowza servers in an origin/edge configuration (used to configure edge application) |
liverepeater-edge-lowlatency | Publish and play live content across multiple Wowza servers in an origin/edge configuration (used to configure edge application when latency is important) |
liverepeater-edge-origin | Publish and play live content across multiple Wowza servers in an origin/edge/edge configuration (used to configure a middle-edge application) |
record | Video recoring |
rtp-live | Re-stream RTSP/RTP, native RTP, or MPEG-TS streams |
rtp-live-lowlatency | Re-stream RTSP/RTP, native RTP, or MPEG-TS streams when latency is important |
rtp-live-record | Same as rtp-live - in addition content is recorded |
rtp-live-record-lowlatency | Same as rtp-live-lowlatency - in addition content is recorded |
shuotcast | Re-stream SHOUTcast/Icecast MP3 or AAC+ audio streams |
shoutcast-record | Same as shoutcast - in addition content is recorded |
Each stream type exposes properties that are used for tuning the stream type. For example, the stream type definitionsfor live and live-lowlatency differ only in the tuning that's accomplished through the stream properties. Defined properties for a stream type can be overridden on a per-application basis by defining new property values on an application's Propertiestab in the Streaming Engine manager or by editing the Streams/Properties container in Application.xml.
