so, how can i figure it out ?

Hello @joey li, sorry you are having an issue. The best approach to a resolution is to have our engineers take a look at your configuration and run some tests. Even though you have a trial, you can still submit a support ticket and receive assistance:

Hello,

Usually, media source extensions errors happen if a client is using Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 7 to play back content using our Wowza Player and does not have Flash installed on their computer. IE 11 on Windows 7 does not support Media Source Extensions and must use Flash to decode H.264 content. We have a detailed description of which browsers and operating systems support Media Source Extensions here: https://www.wowza.com/blog/the-current-state-of-media-source-extensions

Kind regards,
