Manifest Player

Does my player reads name of manifest ?
index.m3u8 or mono.m3u8 does it matter ?
Does a player reads the stream depending upon the Manifest name ?

I’m not sure if I follow your question as you are not giving info about the player you are trying to use
But, in general, the name of the manifest doesn’t matter as long as it’s M3U8 for HLS streaming, and it has the right specs
