Time Shifting Details
Tencent Cloud Live Broadcast supports time-shift management through index information, including functions such as viewing time-shift details, configuring time-shift playback, and live broadcast editing.
Prerequisites
You have logged in to the CSS console.
You have created a time shifting template, bound it to a push domain, and successfully pushed a stream.
To use the live video editing and solidification capability, please make sure that you have activated the Tencent Cloud MPS. The solidified content will be stored in the COS service, and activating the MPS service will automatically activate the COS service.

3. Click Details to enter the details page.
4. View the push URL and stream type in the Basic Info area.
5. You can move the mouse over the timeline in the Index Details page to view the position and time. By clicking on the timeline, you can mark the time.
