I have found something bellow:

According to: This Link

DASH is supported by any browser any browser that supports the W3C Media Source Extensions (MSE), today that is Chrome and IE11

And here

Firefox 21 includes an implementation of DASH for HTML5 WebM video which is turned off by default. It can be enabled via "about:config" and the "media.dash.enabled" preference. Firefox 23 removed support for DASH for HTML5 WebM video

But I can only made it run in Chrome(23+). Could you tell me all browsers that support DASH MPEG for streaming video?

Browsers do not support MPEG-DASH natively

Websites need JavaScript libraries to play DASH streaming. These open source MPEG-DASH player libraries require MSE support in the browser:

Other clients:

MSE Support in Browsers

  • Chrome 23
  • IE 11 (only on Windows 8+)
  • Edge
  • Safari 8.0 (only on OS X, not on iOS)
  • Firefox 42
  • Opera 20, only WebM, no h.264 yet (as of 26)

Also, the HLS implementation in Safari 10 (both iOS and Mac) now supports MPEG-DASH mp4 fragments, which means you don't need to generate your media fragments twice to support HLS and MPEG-DASH. You only need two types of manifest files.

You can try out the official MPEG-DASH test vectors in your own browser.
