I would like to use wowza player to play ultra low latency dash livestream (platform: not mobile).  
I have the mpd file. I would like to know whether a manifest file  
needs to conform to some specific format to play low latency or can a player  
that plays low latency (like wowza player) play the stream in low latency irrespective of additionaly information needed within the mpd file.

Note that the mpd file can be used to play videos with latency of 20-30seconds already.
