Hi, I posted some questions on this forum but still I’ve not received any clear answer yet.

My Question is why the following mpeg-dash adaptive streaming always stops during playing.

[http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad.smil/manifest.mpd](http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad.smil/manifest.mpd)

The smil file has 2 source videos(high bit-rate and low bit-rate).

But each bit-rate source video streamings(mpeg-dash) are all fine.

[http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad\_low\_low.smil/manifest.mpd](http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad_low_low.smil/manifest.mpd)

[http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad\_high\_high.smil/manifest.mpd](http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad_high_high.smil/manifest.mpd)

And even with bad.smil I could play streaming well on the Adobe HDS player.

[http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad.smil/manifest.f4m](http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad.smil/manifest.f4m)

Is there anybody can give me some clear answer?

Following is my yesterday question.

> Hi, My company is using Wowza streaming engine(version 4.1.1) on AWS. I’ve got some weird problem on the adaptive streaming(mpeg-dash). The streaming url is following. [http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad.smil/manifest.mpd](http://54.65.203.47:1935/vod/smil:bad.smil/manifest.mpd) Upper streaming video always stops during playing on the wowza test player. Seems the error occurs at the loading time of the different bit-rate chunk.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

Regarding that issue it was found to be a problem with the source not being keyframe aligned. If you’re experiencing similar problems then you can troubleshoot this [via the steps outlined here](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-debug-encoder-multi-bitrate-keyframe-alignment).

Regards,

Paul
