So apparently this has to do with Cookies (I'm assuming ant media server should set / check a cookie on requests to HLS ts files)

 

I could not find any reference to where this should be set. 

 

 

Please advice

This is consistent with what I'm getting.

 

That is why I'm curious with how HLS Viewer count is calculated in Ant Media

Rest api is broke.  That's how the management page gets the count.

 

 

Here is the rest output with only one viewer!

 

 

root@AMSC1:/usr/local/antmedia/webapps# curl -X GET "
" | json_pp | grep hls

  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current

                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed

hlsViewerCount" : 13

It seems like HLS Viewer Count is higher than the actual number of HLS viewers. What is the method it's calculated by?

 

 

It shows anywhere from 6 to 14 viewers when there's only one person watching.

 

 

Anyone got a formula how to find exact number of viewers?

 

 

 

Thanks, 

 

 

Mark
