Research direction

Start by locating the existing /hls/ redirect handling in catalyst-node and compare it with the requested /cmaf/ paths listed in the issue. Confirm which additional protocols are in scope with the maintainers, then verify that /cmaf/ and the agreed redirects resolve correctly for the listed stream URLs.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Minimally we need /cmaf/ alongside /hls/, but ideally we'd have a few more... here's a full list taken from the Mist embed page:

http://localhost:8080/stream%2bfoo.sdp
ws://localhost:8080/stream%2bfoo.mp4
http://localhost:8080/hls/stream%2bfoo/index.m3u8
http://localhost:8080/stream%2bfoo.mp4
http://localhost:8080/stream%2bfoo.webm
http://localhost:8081/hls/stream%2bfoo/index.m3u8
http://localhost:8080/cmaf/stream%2bfoo/Manifest
http://localhost:8080/cmaf/stream%2bfoo/index.m3u8
http://localhost:8080/cmaf/stream%2bfoo/index.mpd
rtmp://localhost/play/stream%2bfoo
http://localhost:8080/dynamic/stream%2bfoo/manifest.f4m
http://localhost:8080/stream%2bfoo.flv
rtsp://localhost:5554/stream%2bfoo
http://localhost:8080/stream%2bfoo.ts
http://localhost:8080/stream%2bfoo.aac

Okay, we don't want quite all of those...
