Integrating M3U8 Streams into Knowledgeworker Create

In this article, you will learn what M3U8 streams are and how to embed them as part of your learning content in Knowledgeworker Create.

M3U8 streams are a form of video streaming in which the video is divided into segments and streamed progressively over the internet. This allows M3U8 streams to play videos smoothly and load efficiently, as the video quality automatically adjusts to the speed of the respective internet connection.
