HLS in Chrome


I have been away on other things for months,. I did see that HLS is supposed to be supported in HTML5 on Chrome... my first look at it and my video is still playing using flash. Was there something I had to do an extra step? I'm on version 7.5.2

There is in fact an extra step. With the cloud-hosted player you must enable the option in the player’s configuration within your dashboard. If self-hosting the player, add “hlshtml: true” to your embed code.

Thanks. I did this last night after I went looking for it in the dashboard before your answer- and ticked that box. That was some 10 hours ago, but my player still uses flash. Yes using the cloud player
