Created as per our guide: How to setup a HLS stream with Amazon Elastic Transcoder.
HLS streams normally only plays on compatible devices (iPad, iPhone, Safari web browser on Mac and new versions of Android), but FV Player is able to play it on any browser with Flash. That way you can use a HLS stream and cover all the desktop computer users with Firefox, Chrome (Chromium), Opera and other browser. Only thing needed is a correct cross domain policy (crossdomain.xml) for the HLS stream. Check the above guide for details.
