Unable to play the .m3u8 stream in vlc

[irtaza9]

I want to play the .m3u8 stream in vlc but it is not working, I am getting 404 in the browser when I put the link in react-player.

What I am doing.

• Configuration

const NodeMediaServer = require("node-media-server");

const config = {
  logType: 3,
  rtmp: {
    port: 1935,
    chunk_size: 60000,
    gop_cache: true,
    ping: 30,
    ping_timeout: 60,
  },
  http: {
    port: 8000,
    mediaroot: "./media",
    allow_origin: "*",
  },
  trans: {
    ffmpeg: "./ffmpeg.exe",
    tasks: [
      {
        app: "live",
        vc: "copy",
        vcParam: [],
        ac: "aac",
        acParam: ["-ab", "64k", "-ac", "1", "-ar", "44100"],
        rtmp: true,
        rtmpApp: "live2",
        hls: true,
        hlsFlags: "[hls_time=2:hls_list_size=3:hls_flags=delete_segments]",
        dash: true,
        dashFlags: "[f=dash:window_size=3:extra_window_size=5]",
      },
    ],
  },
};

const nms = new NodeMediaServer(config);
nms.run();

• Stream Source
  I am pulling rtsp stream using ffmpeg from my IP camera below is the command I am using:

ffmpeg -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp://myuser:myuserpassword@camera_ip -c copy -f flv rtmp://localhost/live/stream

Output from NMS:

What is current playing

• rtmp (rtmp://localhost:1935/live/stream)
• .flv (http://localhost:8000/live/stream.flv)

What is my goal?

I want to play .m3u8 stream same as .flv is playing on all platforms

[amsyary]

any update?, i try to play video using ffmeg but it doesn't play using hls

Same with the DASH and .flv, only the RTMP stream works. My solution is use different package for HLS and DASH, haven't work with .flv yet.

Only RTMP and FLV streams work for me. HLS or Dash doesn't work.
