What are the differences in HLS streaming live to the STA SDK incontrast to code that might be used for other devices?

A simple app to view live HLS might look like this:



This code works well on Android and iPhones.
On the STA SDK using the sane code and streaming server; the video is not displayed.
Is there anything unique about how the STA SDK handles HLS and live streams?

This is a known issue for the SDK, we are working on a solution. The code should work on actual platforms.

Hi,
When it comes to the streaming you cannot rely on SDK, so far none SDK I have seen on mobile on Smart TV really support video streaming. This for sure needs testing on the real hardware
