mod_rtmp + Akamai stream push
Greetings wise(r) FreeSWITCH users; We've recently started using FreeSWITCH and mod_rtmp to do RTMP -> SIP media conversion (audio only) and have been utterly delighted by how easy and (so far) reliable this has been to both set up and run on a daily basis. One of my superiors has gotten all excited and wonders if we can use the same mechanism to do a stream push to Akamai for content delivery amongst many thousands of RTMP clients (think radio broadcast). It appears that the FreeSWITCH mod_rtmp module is _not_ capable of this - it can send a fresh RTMP stream to a registered client, but it cannot arbitrarily start pushing RTMP to an Akamai EntryPoint. Am I correct in this assertion, or am I misunderstanding the documentation (and google hits) available? My thanks to all; - Jock
I don't recall any initiative being done to facilitate what you describe but its open source code so nothing's impossible. On Thu, Jan 19, 2012 at 4:08 PM, Jock McKechnie <jock.mckechnie@gmail.com>wrote:
