Hi,

Wowza provides the chunklist after a playlist.m3u8 call as there may be multiple renditions due to ABR etc, so each would have a different chunklist that the player can use depending on resolution and so on.

However, if the stream is simple then you can replace playlist.m3u8 with chunklist.m3u8 and it should return with the list of chunks.
