For the example, both an HLS and DASH output were selected. The output URLs can be found under the Output URL section and are separated by a comma. The example shows both outputs:

A player such as VLC can be used to view the example HLS or DASH pull stream outputs.

  2. Add the Bitstreams Edge server IP address to the front, for example: http://10.0.0.123/live/Example.mpd
  3. Use the complete output URL http://10.0.0.123/live/Example.mpd in your player to view the content
