I’m using Bitmovin API to encode videos with HLS and DASH manifest.  
All DASH manifest generated uses the segment template way. Instead of the segment template way, I would like to generate a DASH manifest with a segment list.

I didn’t found any documentation to do that with the “Create Default DASH Manifest” endpoint ([https://developer.bitmovin.com/encoding/reference/postencodingmanifestsdashdefault](https://developer.bitmovin.com/encoding/reference/postencodingmanifestsdashdefault)).  
Is there any solution ? I suppose I can generate a manifest with the “Create Custom DASH Manifest”, but it’s much more complexity for a simple use case…

Thanks by advance.

By using the API, you can set the `type` to `LIST`
