Hello. I'm using the service well. I have a suggestion I'm writing because I think this is where you and I can communicate. I've been using the IOT platform, Home Assistant We need an m3u8 media player for radio or streaming. The platform is modularized in the form of a file called "add-on" It works inside the home assistant like a Chrome confirmation program. Do you happen to use the HLS player in the form of Home Assistant "add-on" Can you develop it for us? There are many users who want and wait for related features. We hope you are positive about this proposal. Here's a related development reference. https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/add-ons/ https://github.com/video-dev/hls.js​ https://hlsjs.video-dev.org/demo/ Thank you.
