Using JW player with multi bitrates on HLS live streaming


Hi.
I have tried JW player for my website. I use Adobe Media Server and Flash Media Live Encoder. On my website, I tested with following code:
bc.. jwplayer("myElement").setup({
playlist: [{image:"image-path",
sources: [{file: "rtmp:file-path"
},{
file: "http:file-path/livestream.m3u8"
}]
}],
primary: "flash"
});


It worked on PC and iOS. Now, I want to use multi bitrates on my streaming. Users can choose bitrates from JW player. But how can I do that. Do SMIL file work on AMS 5?
I tested on JW 6 Free and will use Ads version after test configuration successfully.
Thank for your help

This will work, but only premium+ – http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/jw-player/29393/hls-adaptive-stream

Thank you, Ethan. I have one more question.
Can I live streaming multi bitrate with rtmp? I use live streaming with three bitrates: 500kbps, 700 and 1000. My rtmp link like: rtmp://mycompany.com/livepkgrlivestream%i?adbe-live-event=liveevent. With %i, JW can't play. How can I use multibitrates feature on that. Or only premium+? Thanks

Premium isn’t needed.

You can do it, just with a smil though.
