title: Video Analytics for HLS/Live stream
body: <p>This may not be a purely technical question, but not sure the best place to put it.</p>
  
  <p>So we have a live streaming website (think MTV). We use HTTP Live Streaming to deliver the content. So the stream consists of a bunch of videos. We would like to get analytics on this. Since it's not separate videos that are being watched, but all one stream, what is the best way to collect analytics on this?</p>
  
  <p>Things like:
  - what video in the stream is a user leaving/stopping etc.
  - how long in the video currently in the stream do they watch before leaving/stopping</p>
  
  <p>Stuff like that. We currently use jwplayer, but it does not look like their analytics system supports this. Is there anything that does? Would we have to use google analytics and make custom calls?</p>
  
  <p>Any thoughts would be great.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
