I have a live stream that I want to be able to view on my iOS device, I have built a channel around it but everytime I view the channel on iOS it tells me to connect to a PMS so that the video can be transcoded so that my iOS device and read it, any idea what the fixes for RTMP transcoding were and if there is anything else I need to do to get this video to transcode?

#### You're trying to pass too much info in the "url" parameter, which should be declared. the url is the actual rtmp url. The clip is the playpath, specifying the swf_url automatically assigns swfVfy as true. The pageUrl is not a necessary parameter. Also "height" and "width" are irrelevant when using RealRTMP #####<br />
