I want to use the feature in the monitoring server adaptivegroup …

Hi,

The NGRP group will only work when playing the stream from the origin and can’t be used on any edges repeating these streams.

On the edges you will need to use a .smil file for adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming.

Please see the How to do adaptive bitrate streaming article for more details.

Hi,

If you’re using Push Publishing on the Origin to get the streams to the edges you will need a .smil file on each edge server.

Once you have the .smil file on the edge server it can be copied to the other edges assuming the stream names are the same.

If you’re not familiar with PushPublishing please see the PushPublishing article for details.

By using PushPublish on the origin this means you’re not having to use multiple .stream files on all of the edge servers.
