一 android对hls的支持调研

android 3.0之后虽然加入了对hls的支持，但是一直没有增加对直播的seek功能

下面是android的官方描述

Network Protocols

The following network protocols are supported for audio and video playback:

RTSP (RTP, SDP)

HTTP/HTTPS progressive streaming

HTTP/HTTPS live streaming draft protocol:

MPEG-2 TS media files only

Protocol version 3 (Android 4.0 and above)

Protocol version 2 (Android 3.x)

Not supported before Android 3.0

Note: HTTPS is not supported before Android 3.1.

二 播放器调研

android播放器从js播放器 ，media player播放器以及第三方播放器入手，经调研，js播放器基本是调用本地的播放器，然而android自带播放器又不支持直播的seek，所以从第三方播放器下手寻找突破口。

1 使用js播放器

调研过的js播放器有：jw player ；sewise player；HLSPlayer（http://www.52player.com/VideoPlayer/2014/121751.html）

2 使用本地播放器

NuPlayer AwesomePlayer

3 第三方播放器

--ffmpeg vlc中都自带了hls的解析模块，最新的ffmpeg中hls.c（http://ffmpeg.org/doxygen/trunk/hls_8c_source.html），vlc中的vlc/modules/stream_filter/httplive.c

但是vlc中播放直播和android自带的播放器一样都获取不到总时长，也就没法seek。

强大的mplayer安装后一播放url就闪退了

--Kaltura Player

不支持直播

--nexstreaming

貌似要收费，没有深入调研

--brightcove hls player for android

不支持直播seek

Playback
HLS

• There is currently no support for HLS Live DVR playback with sliding windows.

• There is currently no support for HLSe playback with token authorization.

--ExoPlayer

https://github.com/google/ExoPlayer/tree/master

Android version 4.1 and above (API level 16 and up)

只能从ExoPlayer上边下手了。
