Desktop Chrome and FF do not support HLS. I know there is a plugin available to add HLS support to flash. Is there such plugin or technique available to enhance HTML5 on browsers which dont have HLS support yet?

    So this question got downvoted because it doesn't show any research. I would like to add that I tried finding an answer to this a lot before posting it here. I discussed it with some people in the streaming industry and someone mentioned it maybe possible to create a plugin for html5 videoplayer to add hls support. I didn't find anything that supports this notion, hence I posted here to ask the community if this is possible. – codneto Aug 29 '15 at 23:02

    I think your question got down-voted because it's too broad and you're requesting off-site resources. Both are considered off-topic on stackoverflow. Unless they involve programming, streaming question are pretty much off-topic everywhere except probably the general computing Q&A. – aergistal Aug 30 '15 at 08:36

Not only it is possible, but it's been done numerous times. There are several open and closed source solutions available. A quick github search gave me this one.
