ffmpeg native RTMP protocol implementation fails to parse app and playpath from some Wowza URIs

Description

I am trying to publish on a live RTMP publishing point (wowza) on the following URI:

rtmp://foo.bar.foo.barserver.net/foo-user-4-live01/_definst_/doPublish=abab2de0fe/hello
(** Please, note that I changed the real server address for security reasons.)

The problem is that if I compile ffmpeg WITHOUT support for librtmp (no -enable_librtmp flag) it doesn't work. However, when using librtmp it works.

Trying to figure out what was going on I found out the following:

  • Native ffmpeg RTMP and librtmp impementations parse in a different way the app and playpath from this URI. In particular, librtmp does it right and native implementations doesn't. Here are the details:
Native RTMP:
app= foo-user-4-live01/_definst_
fname= doPublish=abab2de0fe/hello

libRTMP:
app= foo-user-4-live01/_definst_/doPublish=abab2de0fe
fname= hello
  • Having a quick look at the source code, I wonder if it might be related to the "_definst_" thing in rtmpproto.c on the following function ?
static int do_llnw_auth(RTMPContext *rt, const char *user, const char *nonce)

Here you have the command line I am using and the output with verbose level for both native rtmp and librtmp versions:

Please confirm that the issue is reproducible with current FFmpeg git head.

comment:2 by Ignasi Rius, 8 years ago

Yes it is reproducible with current ffmpeg git head using the following compiler flags (probably any flags would work as long as you don't include librtmp):

--disable-gpl --enable-shared --enable-libfdk-aac --target-os=mingw32 --disable-iconv --disable-zlib --disable-bzlib
