Stream URL — What to enter
The Stream URL is the direct address of your live broadcast. It tells our player where to fetch the audio or video. There are several supported formats:
-
HLS
.m3u8 playlist — the most common format for live TV and web cams.
Used by YouTube Live, Twitch, Wowza, Nimble and most encoders.
-
DASH
.mpd manifest — adaptive streaming format, common on modern CDNs.
-
Radio
Icecast / Shoutcast server URL — direct stream endpoint for web radio.
Usually ends in /stream, /live or a port number like :8000.
-
Web
Web page address — if your station has an embed player on a page, paste that URL. We will try to extract the stream automatically.
HLS: https://live.example.com/hls/channel1.m3u8

The URL must be publicly accessible (no login required). If your stream requires authentication, contact us separately.
