Adaptive / Live Streaming

This example uses the shortcode,

[video src="https://www.streambox.fr/playlists/test_001/stream.m3u8"]

Activating WP Video Enhanced plugin, allows you to play HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) and M(PEG)-DASH files using the WordPress [video] shortcode. Kindly refer the supported attributes below,

Supported Atributes

  • src – You can add both your HLS and M(PEG)-DASH feeds simply by using this attribute.
  • m3u8 – You can also add your HLS feed using this attribute. Useful when you like to add both the feeds as one falback to another.
  • mpd – Like HLS feed, you can use this attribute to add a M(PEG)-DASH stream. Useful when you like to add both the feeds as one falback to another.
  • live – “true” or “false.” When used with the value “true”, a small text “Live Broadcast” is displayed in place of the player’s progress bar. So, the users can understand that the video played is Live.
