HLS to other formats

Hi,
Can I publish a live HLS TV stream to Nimble streamer & derive other protocols from it - RTMP, RTSP etc?
The HLS TV stream has a valid m3u8 file & serves valid segments. It has also been validated using Apple's HLS validator.

you need to use ffmpeg and http://blog.wmspanel.com/2014/10/server-tasks-web-management.html
in general you need call ffmpeg so that it transmux incomming hls into rtmp and push it to Nimble. Nimble will produce hls/rtmp/dash from it

Thanks a lot Alex. I will try this out.

you can use something like that
ffmpeg -i http://yourip:port/live/stream.m3u8 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -f flv rtmp://127.0.0.1/live/stream

With RE-STREAMING SETUP WIZARD in the panel, you can re-stream a HLS TV stream too, isn't it? But ffmpeg my favorite to do things like this.

restreaming wizzard is to setup restreaming and you cannot change output format using it
