i placed the jw player in my website and visited jw player in my website via Samsung smart tv browser! I get this problem only via Samsung smart tv browser . I don't know if the problem is with m3u8 stream or the jw player setup! visiting the jw player page via laptop/desktop browser plays the stream just fine!
