I assume you have RTMP server and you want to publish your stream to
it as a client. Are you sure you have correctly configured the server
to percept a stream on this URL?
Seems correct at first sight then, although usually you have to pass
some options in URL.
Sniff the TCP traffic on 1935 port to further investigate the situation.
Check libavformat debug messages (set loglevel to debug).
To check this issue without chance of having bug in your app, try it
with ffmpeg utility.
ffmpeg -i my.flv -c copy rtmp://127.0.0.1:1935/live/test.flv -loglevel debug
