Hi Toni, thanks for that.. I should have noticed that one !
I changed too c:\xyzmedia and HLS and HDS are uploading to S3 fine.
I am able to play HLS content from the s3 bucket with JWplayer but when I try to play HDS video on OSMF config page here http://osmf.org/dev/2.0gm/setup.html The video either plays for one segment duration and then stops or does not play at all. I set the streamType to live on the player.
I suppose I should jump to another part of the forum for this problem though? any idea of a player that works on most devices welcome too !!!
