How do I create an fragmented fmp4 and accompanying m3u8 file?

Hi,

Can someone describe the process of creating a fragmeneted mp4 (fmp4) file (from a source mp4) for use via HLS. And, is there a tool that will generate a valid m3u8 file for that fragmented file?


Thanks!

The mediafilesegmenter tool will do this. Use the -iso-fragmented option.


To get the tool go to https://developer.apple.com/streaming/ and look for "Downloads" (it's on the right side, about halfway down).

That takes you to the download for the HTTP Live Streaming Tools.
