How To Use Tunneling for Firewall Protected Streaming Setups

Posted on by

nanoStream3 supports RTMPT, the tunneling protocol of RTMP,
including automatic Proxy detection.

The URL should then be similar to this:

rtmpt://server:port/live+streamID

The port should probably be 80, dependent on the corporate firewall and streaming server setup.

Please note that RTMPT Tunneling is a workaround
using the firewall-accepted HTTP protocol.
This requires a protocol overhead, so plain RTMP is preferred.

For using Firewalls, it might work to stream plain RTMP over port 80, like this:

rtmp://server:80/live+streamID

If this fails, use RTMPT.
