Azure Media Services Streaming
In case anyone has been wanting to utilize Azure Media Services with dynamic packaging to deliver adaptive streaming streaming with JWPlayer, before it was not possible.
The issue was that JWPlayer supports HLS v3 and Microsoft was delivering HLS v4. Because the audio portion of the video was separate, it did not play the audio.
MS has now released support for HLS v3 and my testing is showing that it is working great with JWPlayer now and includes the audio playback. To access this refer to the dynamic packaging document for Azure Media Services and use the URL ending after the manifest of (format=m3u8-aap-v3).
Thank you,
Justin
