Can you please confirm the .smil file is located in the /content folder, and that there are no typos in the URL. Regards, Salvadore ---

What is the source of the live stream? And how are you generating the different renditions for the .smil file? Sorry, this is assuming your are trying to do adaptive bitrate streaming. Please clarify what it is you are trying to do. Thank you, Salvadore EDIT: Sorry, I see by the post title you are trying to do ABR. Again, please explain your set up as per my last set of questions ---
