Any AndroidTV browser that will load a page with an HTML5 video player?

by hiroo916

I have an internal NGINX server that serves up a simple html webpage with an embedded HTML5 video player that plays an HLS stream from a camera. This works fine on Chrome on Windows or Mac, but I'm looking for a way to play that directly on a Sony Android TV.

Since Chrome isn't available for androidtv (don't want to sideload b/c its a work TV), are there any browsers available on the play store that would work for this?

I tried the Puffin browser and when I enter the URL, it doesn't work. I think it comes up with a refused or failed to connect error.

Are you able to put the stream in a m3u8 file and add it to VLC or MX Player?

JioPages TV Browser might work. It's based on Chromium.

I have a dumb android tv webview app I made to try and get a non supported catch up service working. If you PM me the URL to the internal content I can send you the source to compile or the APK to install.

Have you tried Firefox ? It's available on F-droid as Fennec . You need a mouse or some other pointing device to use it, and it can even get buggy sometimes.

Why would you need to there's YouTube Apps etc that natively play HTML5 players.
