HLS is just a bunch of MPEG2TS fragments at different bitrates and a manifest file. It should be pretty easy to parse the manifest and async xmlhttprequest the chunks and feed them into MediaSource (MSE). We could add this to the video player app if this is really needed by anyone. I am not sure we are currently parsing MPEG2TS in FFOS. We can either enable that in the libstagefright glue, or parsing TS in JS and feed the separated H.264 video and audio tracks into MediaSource.

Hi all,

I sent same mail to media ml, but was no response. Then I send same mail to b2g 
ml.

Current Firefox OS device does not support Youtube Live Streaming. Youtube use 
HLS on mobile platform for it. Firefox does not support HLS, because MSE is 
more promising now. Without support of HLS on Firefox, user do not have a 
problem to watch Youtube Live Streaming on desktop and android. On desktop, 
flash plugin is used for it. On android, user can watch it by Youtube app. But 
on B2g, without HLS support, user can not watch Youtube Live on Firefox OS 
device. Is there no problem to support HLS only on B2g? If it is a problem, is 
there a other solution for it?

Thanks in advance.
