Where are MAC OSX HTTP Live Streaming Tools

Question

I am trying to install mediastreamvalidator, mediastreamsegmenter, mediafilesegmenter tools for my mac machine version 10.6.8.

As mentioned in below link about downloading required tools for development of Apple specified Http Live Server.

https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/StreamingMediaGuide/UsingHTTPLiveStreaming/UsingHTTPLiveStreaming.html

As above article says:

The tools are frequently updated, so you should download the current version of the HTTP Live Streaming Tools from the Apple Developer website. You can access them if you are a member of the iPhone Developer Program. One way to navigate to the tools is to log onto connect.apple.com, then click iPhone under the Downloads heading.

After logging in to site connect.apple.com with Mac OSX developer credentials,
under download heading there is no tab named iPhone, i am unable to find this link.

If these tools are stored else where can some one please provide me the updated link? I need these command lines for developing HLS server.

As I read on Apple web site, Mac OSX version 10.6 and above have these applications pr-installed and we don't need to install them using dgm files, but on my max machine i have only mediastreamsegmenter command line tools not all of them.

Can some one please provide me a link to download these command line tools or provide information on how to get these applications installed on my mac.

Answer 1

As mentioned by Stuart, you must be a member of the iPhone Developer Program in order to access these tools via the http://connect.apple.com link provided in the official documentation. More specifically, you must be a paid member. This fact caused me to lose several hours searching for the tools as I was a member of the iPhone Developer Program, but my annual membership had lapsed and the tools were consequently no longer available to me. What really got me was that the tools were still unavailable within the first few hours of renewing my membership. It took approximately 12 - 24 hours after I paid to renew my membership for them to show up in the list. Hope this helps someone down the road!

Answer 2

They seem to be well-hidden for whatever reason, but after a few wild goose chases, I found them.

You can start at the public-facing streaming page: https://developer.apple.com/streaming/

There is a "Downloads" link along the side. You'll be prompted to sign in to your Developer account, and then finally you get the actual download page here:
