You know, back in the early days of this-
K
9:34Kirk HarnackHOST
That's right, Wowza, yeah, yeah.
M
9:35Matt LevinGUEST
Yeah.

In the early days of this, the co- none of the encoders supported that.
M
9:45Matt LevinGUEST

K

But not all web encoders can do native HLS, in which case you have to have some middleware that can convert a real-time stream into HLS.

And Wowza solved that problem, too, because Wowza, at the time, allowed us to do the HLS from our existing Ice Cache stream, and it allowed us to upload our short little pre-roll video that it would splice in ahead of the real-time stream that was chunking up from our Ice Cache stream.
