This doesn't appear to be an issue with m3u8 support but an issue with the underlying video format. The video plays fine on my device. What is likely happening is that the video decoders on your device does not support the format of the video. The file appears to be an H.264 video. Depending on the features of the video a higher version of Android may be required to play it.
