balena-dash doesn't seem to support HLS/MPEG-DASH video streams? #3

Great work, Balena may be exactly what we've been looking for.

I've been trying to run the following web application using balena-dash: https://d1174xcjip7dlv.cloudfront.net

The web app plays HLS streams (using https://github.com/CookPete/react-player). In regular Webkit browsers, this works fine (e.g. Safari) - but not in belena-dash. Not sure how to debug, it simply shows a black screen.

Any tips?

@fabdrol This seems to be a problem stemming from WPE foundation of this project. I also experienced issues like this; especially when trying to view live streams.

You may find this project useful. It's a fork of the old Resin-ElectronJS project, and an alternative to this one.
