Recording ABR Variants with HLS
Record Multiple Variants and Create HLS Master Playlist for VOD
If you are using the transcoder to publish multiple variants of a stream, you can record all of the variants by modifying red5pro/conf/hlsconfig.xml
, setting <property name="forceVODRecord" value="true"/>
. You will also need to set up cloudstorage (per this document).
In order for the master playlist to be created, modify red5pro/conf/cloudstorage-plugin.properties
, setting the streams directory property to streams.dir=/usr/local/red5pro/webapps/
(assuming your Red5 Pro server is installed in the /usr/local
directory), and then modifying the other properties as outlined in the cloudstorage plugin document.
