If it plays at this stage, you may need to recheck your web server settings.
To test HLS playback from your web server using VLC, run the following command:
To test HLS playback using an iOS browser, open this link:
http://WebServerIPAddress/HLS_T/playlist.m3u8
where:
PathToVLC is the path to the VLC Player executable,
WebServerIPAddress is the IP address of your web server.
In case you still have problems, please attach the EMS log files to your post.
