how to add username and password in HLS playback, or RTMP playback

Reberto_Ookla · September 18, 2014, 7:10am

Hi,

How do I define a username and password, like user1 and pass1, and in the HLS playback, it must include the username and password like this

Thanks

Chuck

Hi,

Can I do this with HLS streaming? I actually will only use for HLS, not RTMP. Thanks
