Vlc player can't play all hls streams (filename extension .m3u8).
Try this hls player.
Apple initially created HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) to easily deliver audio and video content without server software. As an HTTP-based media streaming protocol, HLS uses regular web servers to send both live and pre-recorded content through a variety of streams at different bit rates, adapting to different network bandwidths. To do so, it breaks the media stream up into shorter sequential downloadable file components of their overall streams.
Being HTTP based, HLS can bypass firewalls or proxy servers and can easily be hosted by Content Delivery Networks.
HTTP Live Streaming supports both live broadcasts and prerecorded content (video on demand). HTTP Live Streaming supports multiple alternate streams at different bit rates, and the client software can switch streams intelligently as network bandwidth changes. HTTP Live Streaming also provides for media encryption and user authentication over HTTPS, allowing publishers to protect their work.
There are several tools available that can help you set up an HTTP Live Streaming service. The tools include a media stream segmenter, a media file segmenter, a stream validator, an id3 tag generator, and a variant playlist generator.
