Android Media Player HLS

Question

I am trying to run HLS on Android media player. I am using the code provided in this link. The sample video URL runs but when I replace link with hls link it doesn't work.

Logcat output:

GPU monitor inactive - could not find libgpumonitor.so [(null)] or not enabled (debug.egl.hw.gpumonitor = 0)

for playing live streaming u must have the media extension like .mp3,etc i.e the formats which android supports. Its impossible as far as concern. — Akshay Mukadam, Aug 21 '14 at 12:47
if u r using FFMPEG then it might be possible. But its a tedious job. — Akshay Mukadam, Aug 21 '14 at 12:48
As today (June 2019) Android MediaPlayer can play HLS URL. The URL you have posted simply returns 404 Not Found — Fabio De Lorenzo, Jun 09 '19 at 17:45

Android media player does not support HLS playback. The NuPlayer (in 5.1.1) although streams HLS content, but the frame rendering is not as smooth as MP4 rendering.
