RTMP
The B264 can operate as an RTMP client, and publish a real-time, live bitstream to an RTMP
server. RTMP clients (such as the Adobe® Flash® Player) can connect to the server and play
the live stream. The B264 can generally connect to the same servers as the Adobe Flash Live
Media Encoder (FMLE).
An RTMP server publishing point is defined by the following:
 An RTMP URL, of the form:
rtmp[t][e][s]://servername/app
 A stream name
The first part of the URL defines the protocol, as follows:
 rtmp: standard RTMP with no security
 rtmpt: RTMP tunneled over HTTP
 rtmpe: encrypted RTMP using proprietary security
 rtmps: encrypted RTMP over SSL
 rtmpte: encrypted RTMP using proprietary security, tunneled over HTTP
 rtmpts: encrypted RTMP over SSL, tunneled over HTTP
The servername field is the host name or IP address of the RTMP server to be contacted. The
app field is the application in the server that should receive the data being transmitted. Note
that, depending on the service, the app field may contain a complete path or even a set of
parameters.
The B264 encoder can be configured with primary/backup RTMP servers. If it cannot connect to
the primary server, it will automatically try the backup.
The RTMP configurable parameters are:
