<h1>HLS<a class="headerlink" href="#hls" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h1>
<p>HTTP Live Streaming (also known as HLS) is an HTTP-based media streaming
communications protocol implemented by Apple Inc. as part of its QuickTime,
Safari, OS X, and iOS software. It resembles MPEG-DASH in that it works by
breaking the overall stream into a sequence of small HTTP-based file downloads,
each download loading one short chunk of an overall potentially unbounded
transport stream. As the stream is played, the client may select from a number
of different alternate streams containing the same material encoded at a variety
of data rates, allowing the streaming session to adapt to the available data
rate. At the start of the streaming session, HLS downloads an extended M3U
playlist containing the metadata for the various sub-streams which are
available.</p>
<p>Shaka Packager supports HLS content packaging. This tutorial covers HLS
packaging of VOD content without encryption. For live content packaging, see
<a class="reference internal" href="live.html"><span class="doc">Live</span></a>; for content encryption, see <a class="reference internal" href="drm.html"><span class="doc">DRM</span></a>; for full documentation,
