Improve this questionHLS Streaming is becoming more popular. I am researching what clients are possible on the web. Not iOS or android... Web browsers.
So far the candidates are:
- JW Player: http://www.longtailvideo.com/support/blog/19578/what-is-video-streaming so far, it has only worked on OS X/Safari, which is consistent w/ the table near the bottom of the page.
- thePlatform: The PDK work with OS X/Safari.
As far as I can tell, OS X/Safari supports HLS streaming in the <video> tag, which makes it re开发者_运维百科ally easy.
What is the best method to support HLS on the most browsers?
jwplayer have support for HLS in one of their dev branches, I tested & it's quite good, apart from the issues mentioned in the thread:

VLC has some support for HLS. It's being sponsored by Anevia. [http://demo.anevia.com:8080/ott/vlc.php]
VLC has plugins for browsers on several platforms. I don't know if the VLC solution is ready for prime time yet, but it does exist.
Mediaelement with HLS support is MIT licence and works great on both iDevices and Desktop Browsers, with fallback for HLS. No need to pay for plugins when you have this great open-source alternative.
In some browsers HLS is supported natively through the HTML video tag. For support see that list here.
At the time of writing Safari, iOS and Android seem to be the only ones supported that.
Any browser that fully supports HTML5 markup should display the HLS with the video <> tag.
