Is Dash.js player Support HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) and MSS (Microsoft Smooth Streaming)?

Question

I am new in Dash.js platform . I have written sample HTML file for Adaptive Streaming in HTML5 with Dash.js using .mpd URL .

var url = "https://dash.akamaized.net/envivio/EnvivioDash3/manifest.mpd"

This is working fine in browser . Now i want to know can i stream HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) and Microsoft Smooth Streaming (MSS) using Dash.js framework player in HTML5 ? Can you suggest some of the useful reference for that too ?

Answer 1

dash.js can play MSS if you include the optional MSS package. See https://github.com/Dash-Industry-Forum/dash.js/blob/development/samples/smooth-streaming/mss.html for an example.

It is unable to play HLS - you would need a different player for that.
