Temporarily, I am exporting via SFTP the HLS stream from my TAG server to the DMA. It exports the .jpg and u3m8 files continuously.

I have created sub-folders in my Video Thumbnails folder where it is exported to and explicitly added these folders to the web.config:     <add key="ExtraAllowedPaths" value="/TAGVS/;/VideoThumbnails/" />

I added the file .ts and .u3m8 extensions to the IIS config.

My two issues are:

1. Until I have my HLS transcoder server setup, I want to run the DMA as a proxy to itself. i.e I want to use the DMA only as its own source and thus be able to run video thumbnails – both Generic Images and HTML5-HLS source.
   1. So far, I only have proxy=false working for my Generic Images. No success with HLS at all or proxy=true for images.
   2. The DMA is HTTPS and URL based.
   3. I can access the (proxy-false) files directly from the Edge and Chrome browser, but only the same URL that works in the Visual Overview (Images/Proxy false only)
2. My video thumbnails that do work are only fixed in size and don’t resize/scale to the Shape on the Visual Overview.

Any thoughts?
