What to use to develop an interactive video player?

Question

JavaScript

Hello.
My challenge is this:
I need to develop an interactive video player in the browser where the story changes depending on the choice of the viewer (like "Black Mirror: Bandersnatch" on Netflix). Each video fragment (.mov) weighs 500 mb and when loaded only via html, i.e. video source, it plays with "stops" and takes a very long time to load. It also takes a long time to load when you switch the fragment and change the source.
Questions following:
- What for such case it is possible to use decisions on the server? Nginx settings, webpack chunking?
- What js libraries are there for such a player? I looked at hls, but I can't set up nginx properly, as all the guides give an example with streaming and RTSP.
PS I also read about hls and m3u8. How to specify a video from the m3u8 playlist - I understand. But I did not find anything about how to create a chunklist for m3u8 and how these chunklists are loaded later.
If anyone has experience with similar applications, I will be very grateful for any comments.

Have you looked at the nginx-rtmp classic?
