The format of the string for SSF streaming is as follows (optional components are enclosed in square brackets):
ltssf://[username[:password]@]host[:port]/manifest_path[?param1=val1[¶m2=val2]...[¶mN=valN]]
Secure connections are accessed by using the following:
ltssfs://[username[:password]@]host[:port]/manifest_path[?param1=val1[¶m2=val2]...[¶mN=valN]]
Descriptions of the parameters of the string for SSF streaming are as follows:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
host | The server's registered name or IP address. |
port | (Optional) The server's connection port number from 1 to 65535. If absent, the default port is 80 (443 for secure connections). |

_ssf_Bitrate - Selects the preferred bitrate used by the filter. SSF media often offers encodings at different bitrates. Possible values are: | |
• highest - Selects the highest bitrate content available (default). | |
• lowest - Selects the lowest bitrate content available. | |
• auto - Automatically adjusts the selected bitrate, based on the connection performance. | |
• integer value - Selects a specific content bitrate, in bits per second. The filter will find the closest bitrate to the specified value available. | |
_ssf_Language - Selects the preferred language used by the filter. SSF media often contains content for multiple languages. | |
The value is the 3 character ISO 639-2 language code. | |
The default value is eng. |
