I have a video called Spiderman.mp4 which I uploaded to Windows Azure Media Services using their Web UI (not console application). I also encoded the video into the preset “Playback for iOS and PC/MAC” using the Web UI. After I published, I get the URL As
http://azure-something.net/Spiderman.ism/Manifest
How do I Smooth Stream this Manifest file into both iOS and PC? I have used a Silverlight Smooth Streaming player for windows for this but it does not work for iOS.
Any help in this regard will be deeply appreciated!!
You have to encode the video file to Apple HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) . Checkout https://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/net/how-to-guides/media-services/#header-12
You seem to be converting the video file to IIS smooth streaming which justifies why it only works with Silverlight.
