Comment (by sastie@…):

 Found the issue problem and it was not related to the how the live stream
 was started in the serviceapi. The documentation mentions that you only
 need to set one the video sizes (width vs height) and that the system will
 set the proper size for the missing dimension to keep the aspect ratio
 correct. However the problem is the following:
 add a livestream via serviceapi, do not set the width only the height,
 livestreaminfo data is returned with a m3u8 filename of <your
 video.mpg>.0x720_800kV_64kA.m3u8
 however the server generates a file named <your
 video.mpg>.1280x720_800kV_64kA.m3u8
 As you can see it generates a different filename so queries will not
 return a proper value.
 Now a subsequent call to getLiveStream with the streamid will return the
 proper url.
