how to set m3u8 file #EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE: YES ?

In m3u8 head, there is a parameter line:#EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE:NO.

It is genarated by Wowza system. Can we change it to #EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE:YES?

How can we do it?

Hi,

For Apple HLS in a a “live” Wowza application type you can add the following property within LiveStreamPacketizer / Properties in conf/[application]/Applicatiion.xml (be careful to choose the correct node)

<Property>
     <Name>cupertinoAllowCaching</Name>
     <Value>true</Value>
     <Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>

For Apple HLS nDVR live streaming the following property can be added to HTTPStreamer / Properties in conf/[application]/Application.xml.

<Property>
     <Name>dvrCupertinoPlaylistAllowCaching</Name>
     <Value>true</Value>
     <Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>
