How to play H.264 video in a browser?

Question

I transcoded every frame of my video from RGB → YUV12 → H264. At the output, I have an H.264 video stream, and I want to watch it without a VLC media player, etc.

The stream must be accessible from different devices, such as a PC, tablet, smartphone in this way

I will use only the browser.

Which method to choose?

Maybe Flash helps? Transcode video from h.264 to mp4? Anything else?

Thanks for any idea.

The <video> supports RTSP streams.
In Firefox, Chrome, and IE9 + you can use:

 <video src="rtp://domain.com/stream"> Your browser does not support RTP streams. </video> 

or

 <video src="rtsp://domain.com/stream"> Your browser does not support RTP streams. </video> 

In a good old IE8, VLC comes with an ActiveX plugin (VLC web plugin) that allows streaming video:
