Use MSE ?

[osmestad]

Just wondering if you have considered using a Video element for display and feeding it with data using MSE (http://html5-demos.appspot.com/static/media-source.html)?
I am wondering if this could help avoid the glitches between segments currently experienced.

I did, but, at least at that moment H.264 wasn't supported in most MSE implementations. Not sure what is the current status of this.

If this feature test is to be belived:
https://www.youtube.com/html5
It currently says OK for "MSE & H.264" in: Chrome (42), Safari (8)
And fails for: Opera (25), Firefox (37)
On OSX (haven't tested on Windows/Linux).

A better overview Is here:

The overview page was moved it seems: http://www.jwplayer.com/mediasource/

The MediaSource extension seems to be (ok) supported. Only Firefox has some whitelist issues. The rest seems to be able to support it.

Yes, but still has problems which prevent smooth streaming: #20 (comment)
