Hi Hank,
I don't think that this question only marginally Matterhorn related.
Have you tried to play the file with the JWPlayer?
Matterhorn currently does not offer MP4/H.264 encoding profiles. I guess
you only copied the files and their encoding from what your hardware
already encoded? I don't have ncast-hardware that I can check how good
wowza works with ncast mp4 files.
Wowzas default codec is FLV. If the filetype is unclear you will have to
specify the application-instance:
rtmp://mycompany.com/myapplication/mp4:mycoolvideo.mov
see http://www.wowza.com/forums/content.php?217#flashRTMP
Matterhorns configuration currently does not support to specify the
application instance but in my short tests with wowza and my H.264
encoding profile (see
http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/download/attachments/24445142/h264.properties?version=1&modificationDate=1305894747875)
it worked somehow, even without specifying the application-instance.
I don't know how important this application-instance is for Wowza, you
better ask them the question.
Regards
Rüdiger

I'm trying to get .mp4 files to play within Engage and they don't.
Wowza is reporting the error below. Why does Engage think an .mp4 file
is an .flv file?
