Playlist Streaming

[Femi]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone has experience the issue with a spinning ball in-between playlists during livestream. Normally, I supposed the video should play and smoothly progress to the next video. But most often in my case, there is this blank screen and a spinning circle that come up and spin for minutes before the playlist move to the next video. Sometime the spinning goes on until i refresh the page. Please see the attached full detail. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi @Femi,

How are you?

As you are using Playlist to stream and using recorded files, it makes better to use HLS for playback.

There are a few configuration parameters can you can include to reduce the loading time between videos and make it more smooth.

Here are some insights and steps recommended that you can try.

Another thing that I noticed was that. The next videos on my playlists are always muted. Is there a way to set every video in a playlist to play automatically. This helps when you are streaming multiple songs. You don't have to manually unmute every time each song starts. Is there an easy way around this?

 

Thank you
