If the file is on your Wowza server it can be used by following these steps:

1. Make sure server is set up to play VOD: http://www.wowza.com/forums/content.php?35-How-to-play-a-video-on-demand-file)
2. Copy the file into the Wowza server's content directory, [install-dir]/content.
3. It should work then with the url rtmp://wowza-ipadress:1935/vod/flv:test.flv

Good Luck.
