Hi,

As Mandeep said, it depends on the backend. Apple’s AVFoundation framework, 
which we use on iOS and Mac OS, supports playing HLS streams. However it 
doesn’t currently work because of an implementation issue on our side; see 
https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-39720.

Qt, natively does not support HLS. It'll depend on the backend that 
QtMultimedia uses on a particular platform.

So check if the iOS backend supports (which it ideally should as HLS is from 
Apple too). I haven't played with QtMultimedia in a while so I'm not sure if 
juts passing an m3u8 url will work out of the box.

Dear all,

I would like to make an app for iOS and android featuring a HLS stream.

Does Qt support HLS streaming maybe using a QML component?
Especially on Android HLS support seems to be limited with Android versions 
below 4.4 so just opening a webView and using HTML5 video object will probably 
not work with many devices running with android 4.1 -4.3

Does maybe someone knows a link to an example of how to do HLS streaming with 
Qt?

Thanks and best regards,
Andreas
