URL Syntax

The following list shows the proper URL syntax to use to stream the supported protocols to multimedia players:

Protocol	URL Syntax
Adobe Flash RTMP	rtmp://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path> Example: rtmp://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4 Note: RTMP requires files to be in a subfolder. This is normally described as the application. So if you place video files in the root of the Media folder (instead of the VOD subfolder), the URL still requires a subfolder. In this case, you can use "." or "_media_" subfolder. So if sample2.mp4 was in the media folder, you can use one of these two URLs: rtmp://192.168.1.250:6969/./sample.mp4 or rtmp://192.168.1.250:6969/_media_/sample.mp4
Adobe HTTP Dynamic Streaming (HDS)	http://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path>/manifest.f4m Example: http://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4/manifest.f4m
Apple HTTP Live Streaming (HLS)	http://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path>/playlist.m3u8 Example: http://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4/playlist.m3u8
MPEG-DASH	http://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path>/manifest.mpd Example: http://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4/manifest.mpd
Microsoft Smooth Streaming (SSF)	http://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path>/manifest.mpd Example: http://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4/manifest
RTSP/RTP	rtsp://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path> Example: rtsp://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4
RTSP/RTP (MPEG-2 transport)	rtsp://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path>/mp2t.sdp Example: rtsp://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4/mp2t.sdp
RTSP/RTP over HTTP	rtsp://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path>/qt.sdp Example: rtsp://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4/qt.sdp Note: qt.sdp informs the server to adjust the B frame timestamps to avoid jerky playback in quicktime. If your video does not contain B frames, then the qt.sdp can be omitted.
HTML5 Video	http://<IP Address>:<Port>/<File Path> Example: http://192.168.1.250:6969/vod/sample.mp4
