The url you posted is not for a feed file.  It points to a video stream.  Feed urls are either a .json or .xml file.

FREE Windows desktop software for converting Direct Publisher channels to SceneGraph (SDK), for creating BIF (Trick Play) files, Roku (MRSS, JSON) feed files, and FireTV feed files @ GitHub/rrirower.

What would be a basic MYJSON structure to include this feed url
