How do you setup multiple HLS ABR bitrates from a single RTSP video stream source?

Trying to stream a web cam (RTSP source) via ABR/HLS. Wanting to create both a low and high quality streams that the Flowplayer can use. I can't find any details on how to set this up. Any assistance is appreciated.

Hello,

You need to have several renditions of the same stream in order to combine them into ABR.
If you have only 1 original stream, you can use our Transcoder to do that.
Check this video as example of how this can be done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fw_6762aFlI&t=1s

OK. I have setup two renditions of the same stream. Do you have some examples for how to "combine them into ABR?" My goal is to use Flowplayer to automatically "down-shift" to the lower bitrate when bandwidth is a problem.
Thanks!

Hi,
please take a look at http://blog.wmspanel.com/2014/06/make-abr-hls-rtmp.html
Don't be confused about rtmp
