 +== Android RTMP streaming
 +To use and android phone or tablett as a streaming source an app is needed.
 +So far we didn't found and opensource app so we you will need the playstore to get this running.
 +We will update this as soon as we find an opensource alternative.
  
 +The app that worked best for us is [[https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wmspanel.larix_broadcaster | Larix Broadcaster]] which you can get for free from the playstore.
 +The app does not contains ads and seems to be free because the its an demo app for the SDK the company sells.
 +
 +  * after installing the app go to Settings
 +  * tap on **connection** and configure the RTMP endpoint.
