How to Build a Streaming HTML5 Video Player
Some day, plug-ins will be a thing of the past. At his recent 流媒体 West presentation on how to build a streaming HTML5 video player, 杰夫攻丝机, 首席架构师 数字灵长类动物, started off by explaining the streaming options now in place, 和 why publishers want to move away from solutions that require plug-ins.
"Our online video options: We have progressive download, which works fairly well across most browsers; the various Real Time protocols—RTP, RTMP, RTSP; 和 HTTP streaming. The main flavors you'll see with HTTP streaming: Smooth Streaming, HLS, HDS, 和, 最近, 破折号. The challenge these days: folks want to move away from plug-ins," Tapper said. “总的来说, from an efficiency point of view, folks tend to agree that HTTP streaming is the most beneficial approach."
While the delivery options are complex, HTML5 video will make files easier to manage.
"Part of the challenge we have is that different devices support things in different ways, 和 there's a lot of different devices that we have to deal with today,塔珀解释道. "There's no one st和ard that is supported ubiquitously, 和 that's another major challenge for us. 我们最后得到了什么, in order to support as many devices as we can, is we end up having media stored 和 served in several different variations which gets complex to manage."

How to Build a Streaming HTML5 Video Player
With the adoption of Media Source Extensions (MSE) into modern browsers, it is now possible to stream video directly to browsers without plug-ins. This session explores how these players can be built 和 what video formats can be used. It looks at how MSE 和 Encrypted Media Extensions (EME) work, 和 how to use them to build modern streaming applications. We also dig into the various formats of content that can be played with an MSE 和 dive in depth into one such open source project—dash.js, which makes use of the Open St和ard MPEG-破折号 along with MSE to create a real-world streaming app.
