MPEG-DASH MPEG2-TS support in Chromecast and other browsers

Could someone provide a definitive answer to the current state of support of MPEG2-TS under MPEG-DASH with various browsers especially Chromecast?

There are proofs that Chromecast can do mp4 and webm via MPEG-DASH. But I do not see any clear confirmation of support or non-support on MPEG2-TS.

My guess is that base on the non-support of MPEG2-TS in Google's MSE, Chromecast is not likely to support MPEG2-TS with MPEG-DASH. But I would like a firm confirmation.

Any other mainstream browsers that may support MPEG DASH/MPEG2-TS?

Thanks

Take a look at the Media Player Libraries and the new Chromecast SDK's. MPEG2-TS is supported in Chromecast.
