I have a Live HTTP Streaming system working on a web server, and I want to see the stream on the iPhone. To achieve that, I instantiate a new MPMoviePlayerController and initialize it with the URL of the .m3u8 playlist, but I'm having some problems:
I have tried displaying the stream in mobile Safari, with html5 video tag, and the behavior is the same. Any idea why this happens? Could this be some web server configuration problem? I'm using Glassfish atm.
Just solved it: It simply works in the device, but not on the simulator. I have no clue why.
It also doesn't care if you implement it through html5 or through MPMoviePlayerController, the behavior is the same.
I hope it helps someone in the future.
