Yes and no.

HDS cannot be played with PlayHLS and ffmpeg so you need a different
player in this case php (command line) and a script AdobeHDS.php
probably packaged as PlayHDS !! Oh Joy.

So then the choice will be which format to choose to rewrite into Perl
so that they can work on all platforms easily (but probably painful to
write and implement )  or rewrite into C in which case a build support
nightmare of platforms, kernel, glibc version etc.
