How to make a .m3u8 file ?

[DWIChannel]

I want to build playlists for my new website. This is a simple example but it does not work. I built a file, test.m3u8 to play one file and then the other but it does not work.

#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:110
#EXT-X-VERSION:5
#EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:1
#EXTINF:76, track 1

#EXTINF:34, track 2
https://dwichannel.com/videos/wvtm-0010.mov
#EXT-X-ENDLIST

Your playlist worked in MPCHC but not in VLC. Changing it to

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:76, track 1
https://dwichannel.com/videos/wvtm-0009.mov
#EXTINF:34, track 2
https://dwichannel.com/videos/wvtm-0010.mov

works in both.

How do I get it to work in Safari?

Web browsers generally don't deal direcly with m3u8 files. They need to be played via a web page and a player.

I tried embedding with this code on an HTML page in Safari, a browser that has run many .m3u8 files embedded on websites. It does not work.
