Abstract
Various embodiments include facilitating video playback, based on an HTML iframe and a headless browser. To that end, in some embodiments, a method is performed at a first device, which may be referred to as a receiving device. The first device includes a processor, a non-transitory memory, and a communication interface. The communication interface enables commutation with a second device, which may be referred to as a sending device. The method includes receiving the HTML iframe from the second device. The HTML iframe may include a video tag, or the video tag may be nested in another HTML iframe. Moreover, the method includes playing a video stream that is identified by the video tag. Playing the video stream includes executing the HTML iframe via the headless browser to retrieve the video stream based on the video tag, and transmitting the video stream to a display device.
