Frequently asked questions

How do I test if a stream URL is working?
Paste the HLS, DASH or IPTV URL into the box above and press Test. StreamTest fetches it, shows whether it is online, captures a short preview and thumbnail, reads the codec and bitrate, and runs a full manifest audit — usually in a few seconds.
Is StreamTest free?
Yes. Every tool is free and works without an account. Sign in only to keep a private history of your tests.
Can I test a private, local or geo-blocked stream?
Yes. Local mode runs entirely in your browser so private, LAN and staging streams never touch our servers, and you can supply custom headers and cleartext ClearKey keys so protected streams play.
What formats can I test?
HLS (M3U8), MPEG-DASH (MPD), IPTV M3U playlists and XMLTV programme guides, plus direct MP4 and MPEG-TS streams.
