Download the handout from this excellent session, with contributions from Jeff Tapper (Digital Primates), John Luther (JW Player), and Mike Callahan (Elemental). 

Transitioning from Flash to HTML5 is a complicated matter involving a change in player and encoding format and, for some, even new DRM, captioning, and advertising insertion technologies. Learn the current status of the Media Source Extensions and Encrypted Media Extensions. Get advice on your options and strategies for existing encoded content libraries and how to plan and implement the transition. A representative from Elemental Technologies describes the MPEG-DASH standard, details how to encode for MPEGDASH, and discusses alternatives for adopting or converting existing content libraries. A representative from JW Player also covers development options for creating a MSE/EME compatible player, including open source and OTS options like JW Player, and presents case studies for successful Flash to MSE/EME transitions.
