devstack doesn't have necessary codecs installed for HLS playback
@muhammad-ammar reported that HLS playback is needed for JavaScript testing. However, out of the box, devstack is not able to run the demo at http://dailymotion.github.io/hls.js/demo successfully. This is because the H.264 codec isn't installed by default.
The workaround is to install the package by hand within the VM:
sudo apt-get update && sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get install -y ubuntu-restricted-extras
Long term we should convert this into a role and install into devstack.
