Hi,
I what to create a channel with live stream video from akamai.
If I understood correctly, I need to provide in config.opml file a url to mrss feed with metadata to my live entry. Right?
so, i am trying to build a feed with my live entry, but how should it be?

This is how I managed to publish a VOD movie to my roku box.

My VOD Movie [http://www.kaltura.com](http://www.kaltura.com) Sample Animated Logo this is my description logo,sample

But how should it be with HLS (live streaming, rtmp)? What is the exact mrss format that I should do?

I would really appreciate your help

Thanks!

If you already have a channel parsing this mrss feed (sounds like you do since VOD is working), try replacing the url in this line:


<media:content url=http://cdnbakmi.kaltura.com/p/349821/sp/34982100/serveFlavor/flavorId/1_vrdth197/name/1_vrdth197.mp4/>

With an url to your top level .m3u8 file. You may need to set the StreamFormat in the mrss as well (and be sure your channel is picking it up) as the value needs to be “hls”. If it was not specified, StreamFormat defaults to “mp4”, which matches your VOD url above.
