Publish RTMP stream using Teradek

Teradek Vidiu Pro is fully compatible with Ant Media Server. Before starting, you need to create a live stream in Ant Media Server web panel. You can create a stream in LiveApp or WebRTCAppEE, as there are differences between them. However, your RTMP URL changes depending on which one to choose. When you create a live stream, your RTMP URL will be in the following format:

rtmp://YOUR_SERVER_IP_OR_URL/LiveApp/YOUR_STREAM_ID or rtmp://YOUR_SERVER_IP_OR_URL/WebRTCAppEE/YOUR_STREAM_ID
