flv.js

An HTML5 Flash Video (FLV) Player written in pure JavaScript without Flash. This project relies on Media Source Extensions to work. flv.js works by transmuxing FLV file stream into ISO BMFF (Fragmented MP4) segments, followed by feeding mp4 segments into an HTML5 <video> element through Media Source Extensions API. flv.js is written in ECMAScript 6, transpiled into ECMAScript 5 by Babel Compiler, and bundled with Browserify. FLV container with H.264 + AAC / MP3 codec playback. Multipart segmented video playback. HTTP FLV low latency live stream playback. FLV over WebSocket live stream playback. Compatible with Chrome, FireFox, Safari 10, IE11 and Edge. Extremely low overhead, and hardware accelerated by your browser!
