Why doesn't the inline player work on Chrome?
Chrome / Edge / Firefox don't natively play HLS — that requires hls.js. We keep the page lightweight by skipping that dep; instead, click 'Save as MP4' to preview after conversion.
Play and Save Any M3U8
Paste an .m3u8 URL or drop a local playlist. Playback and conversion both happen right in your browser, whichever one you use. Hit the save button and get an MP4.
Frequently asked questions
Can I save protected (DRM) streams?
Mediabunny can read encrypted HLS where the browser allows decryption, but DRM-protected segments cannot be re-output. We recommend using only streams you have rights to access.
Why does m3u8 fail to load?
Most often CORS. Use the upload tab as a workaround.
Can I save a clip instead of the whole stream?
Use the HLS Trim tool for clipping a time range to MP4.
What output container does Save use?
MP4 (H.264 + AAC by default). For other containers, use HLS Converter.
Which browsers are supported?
Native playback: Safari 16.4+. Save: Chrome 105+, Edge 105+, Safari 16.4+, Firefox 130+. WebCodecs is required for Save.
