Answer 1

I tried m3u8 video format for more than 6 months and it is not succeeded. It is playing in my iPhone app and native applications. My streaming server is Red5 and it has no RTSP plugin. It gives out RTMP streaming and it could not be streamed in Android. I waited for one year to get an OS having support for RTSP streaming but google haven't. Still I am using a web view with a flash player to stream live video(It has not much clarity). I feel shame to say this to my client and continuing search to play the live stream in Android default player.

I think your video url may not RTSP.
