How to configure Microsoft Encoder 4 Pro to stream http Live?

Question

Well, I'm developing an iphone app, I want to stream some videos, I have already done the player app, but due to my own controls it is posible to play a partial video, like 6second only, this is carrying me some problems cause when I seek or start my player at any second it goes till the 10 seconds closer, I mean if i want to go to the second 43 it goes to the 40... if i ant to go to the second 46 it goes to the 50 one so... I think this is a problem of HTTP live streaming or most from the encoding???

Any help will be appreciated

HLS uses short media segments, so it's not unexpected that seeking would go to the start of the nearest segment. I think 10 seconds is the default. If you want finer granularity, you should decrease the Segment length . It's not possible to lower the segment length to less than the I-frame interval, which is generally around 2 seconds.
