Hi,

It’s my understanding that iTunes doesn’t support this anymore, although I’m not sure.

I think in the older versions this was available using the same format as the HTTP URL you have above but it may have been taken out for some reason.

I recommend you ask in the Apple forum for assistance as I can’t be absolutely sure.

Hi,

If you’re able to play the stream from Wowza using the Apple HLS URL with an iOS device and VLC player then it suggests that the issue lies with iTunes not making the request.

As we know Wowza is streaming to the above clients and it works, this confirms Wowza is configured correctly. From what you’ve said, it appears that iTunes doesn’t allow this.

I recommend you ask in the Apple forum for assistance as it appears to be a iTunes issue or restriction.

The Apple support staff will know iTunes and it’s streaming/playback abilities in more depth and will know if this is possible.

yes, i tune support http:// protocol but on server side that is live stream Radio ,but i want local host side .

as our wowza -user guide say " Apple iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch (Apple HTTP Live Streaming) [http://mycompany.com:1935/live/myStream/playlist.m3u8] URL to play stream.

"

i have work on same URL ,i,e my URL is [http://localhost:1935/live/rsstream0/playlist.m3u8]. but it cant play the stream…

plz send me correct URL …

THANKS,
