Hi @打玻璃,

In the github repo about nginx media server, it supports HLS and DASH as well as RTMP.

What I have done now:

1. Find abc News Channel .m3u8 file.
2. Push the Stream to stream media server (nginx)
3. Open the page, then we can play the .m3u8 file. There are some delay in my sample .gif file.

Summary

1. We configure the stream url inside the nginx.conf file
2. Then we can paly the live stream by using html5 video tag, it supports HLS and DASH as well as RTMP
3. Of course, we can configure 5 live stream apps for using in advance, and then start the nginx server, but if there is a newly added live stream URL that you want to use in the future, then we need to restart the nginx server, which may not be very friendly, it is recommended to consider using the media service in the cloud product.
