As i understood, Android 3.0 and above are able for play radio streaming m3u8 - http://developer.android.com/guide/appendix/media-formats.html
I put this link - http://content.mobile-tv.sky.com/content/ssna/live/ssnraudio.m3u8 into MediaPlayer but in LogCat i get:
06-01 09:04:44.287: INFO/LiveSession(33): onConnect 'http://content.mobile-tv.sky.com/content/ssna/live/ssnraudio.m3u8'

This is my source code:
mp = new MediaPlayer();
start.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
try {
mp.setDataSource("http://content.mobile-tv.sky.com/content/ssna/live/ssnraudio.m3u8");
mp.prepare();
mp.start();
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
stop.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
try {
mp.stop();
mp.reset();
} catch (Exception e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
}

1 Answer. Show activity on this post. open m3u8 file in Notepad++ copy the m3u8 link and paste in m3u8 player to run m3u8 stream. Or you can directly open m3u8 player by clicking on m3u8 link.
Even currently android builtin media player is able to play live urls inside an m3u8. Basically m3u8 is nothing else but text file to android. So you have to make m3u parser. If you are just looking for application, you can try and iptv which is free to use.
M3U8 files can be opened using applications like VideoLAN VLC media player.
Try ExoMedia, streaming is as easy as:
emVideoView.setVideoURI(Uri.parse("https://archive.org/download/Popeye_forPresident/Popeye_forPresident_512kb.mp4"));
I works well with m3u8.
