Reconcile your Wowza stream schedule against uptime

Every night, WebRun checks Google Calendar for scheduled broadcasts, checks Wowza's stream logs for actual uptime and start times, flags any scheduled stream that didn't run or ran outside its planned window, and posts the reconciled result to Microsoft Teams.

In short

How do I know if a scheduled Wowza stream actually ran on time?

WebRun checks Wowza's stream logs every night against what was scheduled on Google Calendar, flagging any broadcast that didn't run or ran outside its planned window. It posts the reconciled result to Microsoft Teams, so a failed or short stream gets caught by the engineering team the same night, not after a viewer complains.

  • Failed or short streams get caught the same night
  • Every scheduled broadcast is checked against real uptime
  • Engineering teams get a clean nightly reconciliation report

Questions, answered

Does it restart a stream that failed?

No. WebRun only reports on what happened against what was scheduled. Restarting or fixing a stream is still done by your engineering team in Wowza.

What counts as running outside its window?

A stream that started well after its scheduled time or ended well before its planned duration, based on Wowza's own logs.

Does it cover more than one streaming server?

Yes, it checks logs across whichever Wowza servers or channels are part of your setup.
