m3u8是苹果公司推出一种视频播放标准，是m3u的一种，不过编码方式是utf-8。
浏览器播放m3u8文件，这里使用video.js插件，下载地址： http://www.jq22.com/jquery-info404
下载最新版本v7.4.1，下载完成解压打开进入，index.html就是demo代码，修改<source>标签的src设置为m3u8的地址、type="application/x-mpegURL"。
例子：
<source src="http://recordcdn.quklive.com/upload/vod/user1462960877450854/1550739580345725/1/video.m3u8" type="application/x-mpegURL">
