Twitch has run over HTML5 for the better part of a year (maybe longer).

The controls and chat were upgraded to HTML5 last year but the video will not be converted from Flash to HTML5 until Q2 this year.

This was one of the major announcements made during CEO's keynote at TwitchCon. http://blog.twitch.tv/2015/09/twitchcon-2015-keynote-product...

OS X and iOS streams use HLS (append /hls to url) and you can get the html5 video in various ways (append &html5 or [1]).
