[FFmpeg-user] Capture UDP with ffmpeg, re-stream with ffserver

Sat Jul 26 07:04:54 CEST 2014

Hi, 
 I have win7 pushing UDP (via vidStudio port 1935) to Ubuntu (ffserver) and I am trying to use ffmpeg to capture and restream.
Website is wildcatrockcity.com
Both machines on DMZ, firewall verified not the issue...
I have JW-Player embedded into index.html to play stream.

My problem is that I get "Error loading stream could not connect to server." I have tried many different configurations changing the ffmpeg command, but nothing works.

My details of this configuration are as follows:

INDEX.HTML
***************
<html>
<head>

<script src="http://jwpsrv.com/library/mAx4MKWXEeKuhCIACpYGxA.js"></script>
</head>
<body><h1>It works!</h1>

<p>This is the default web page for this server.</p>
<p>The web server software is running but no content has been added, yet.</p>
<div id='my-video'>

<script type='text/javascript'>
jwplayer('my-video').setup({
file: 'rtmp://www.wildcatrockcity.com:8090/live/live.swf',
image: 'img',
width: '480',
height: '270',
});

</script>
</div>
</body></html>
