The flow of the default config is that rtmp streams are received in live endpoints >> transcoded and pushed by ffmpeg to show endpoints >> hls and dash pulls the show endpoints. Maybe for starters try to push rtsmp to rtmp live point and test if you can open it in vlc. Then uncomment the transcoding and see if you can get the rtmp show endpoints as rtmp. IF that works, I believe the default dash/hls will work.

yes i got it working. issue here was my >> to log file since that sent to stdout :) the static push as i read was better in keep con then push/pull but i need to see why i did not get it in the show endpoints
