    You have to modify your serverside to provide HTTP Live streaming protocol and modify your media via recoding

    Other suggested solutions are:

    • instead of making a transport stream, make a .mov file and pass that into mediafilesegmenter
    • use mediastreamsegmenter instead of medafilesegmenter for your transport stream file (cat | mediastreamsegmenter -p)
