Description

Is it possible to play a video from an m3u8 file (metadata file). I guess it is more of an HTML5 question, relating to the tag, but I'm sure you have at least of it as the m3u8 standard seems to be dominant in the area of live streaming. Any thoughts?

Research direction

Start at the HTML5 entry point and review how the existing JavaScript player handles media sources. Confirm whether m3u8 playback is supported in the relevant browser environments; done requires a documented compatibility decision or defined implementation scope, since the issue names no files or tests.
