Hi Chris, Yes, that is an option and the comment on the bug also mentioned it. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=577084#c15

Yes, Gary Chen on the cc list is a Gaia developer and he will investigate how to apply HLS on content layer. By the way, just to add a possible option. If we have enough resource to support MPEG2-TS de-muxer in Gecko then what else blocks this option? Thanks. ----- 原始郵件 ----- 寄件者: "Chris Pearce" <[email protected]> 收件者: "Marco Chen" <[email protected]>, [email protected] 副本: "Blake Wu" <[email protected]>, "Evelyn Hung" <[email protected]>, "Eric Chou" <[email protected]>, "Gary Chen" <[email protected]> 寄件備份: 2014 4 月 1 星期二 下午 12:22:37 主旨: Re: HLS support on B2G (Bug 577084 ) Can partners use JS libraries like https://github.com/RReverser/mpegts to convert MPEG-TS into MP4, for playback via MSE? If so, we would not need to implement anything we're not already planning to implement. I don't know much about MPEG-TS or HLS. Someone would need to investigate whether a solution using JS libraries like the above would work. Chris P.
