Vod video HLS

[ctaity]

This plugin is tested with HLS VOD ?

[kslimani]

It should work with HLS VOD.

Though, it seems there is a little regression with Firefox desktop (with HLS VOD). I will investigate on this issue ASAP.

I having multiple problems with hls vod.
You can test with this m3u8: https://cdn-vod.tvpublica.com.ar/out/2019/06/24/rJSGGORyB/main.m3u8
And i am using the tag of demo page.
After preroll, the video never starts, keep buffering with the 3 points on the screen.

You are correct, there is an issue with HLS VOD. It works with Google Chrome,but i have similar issue with Firefox (desktop) and Safari (on mac).

I am pretty sure it worked previously. I will investigate on this issue.

[kslimani]

@ctaity i released a temporary workaround. Could you try with https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/clappr-ima-plugin@0.2.3/dist/clappr-ima-plugin.min.js (set version in url as jsDelivr may take some hours to update cache).

[ctaity]

works now !!!!! Thanks

1 question, on live streaming still dont work?

[kslimani]

pre-roll should work on live streaming
(midroll and postroll is not supported with live stream source).

[YuThandar]

@kslimani clappr-ima-plugin@0.2.3, this version is autoPlay video but mid-roll ad finished keep on running post-roll ad.Skipped the remain video play time go to post-roll ad.

[kslimani]

@YuThandar could you please try with the current latest version 0.2.11 ?

If this does not still works, please open a new issue, providing steps to reproduce it.

[YuThandar]

@kslimani I'm Ok in version 0.2.4.This version is everything Ok. Latest version is not supported autoPlay after play ads the video pause. Thank you Sir.

[kslimani]

@YuThandar could you please elaborate about the 0.2.11 not working ? (if something is broken, i should be able to fix it)

[YuThandar]

@kslimani Firstly,the pre-roll ad autoPlay is OK and then the ad finished.The video automatically pause.You are going to test with m3u8 file.

[kslimani]

@YuThandar i am testing locally with HLS source and i can't reproduce this issue.

Are you experiencing this issue on mobile device or desktop ? (which os version and browser version)

[YuThandar]

@kslimani desktop is OK. Only mobile device this error.

[kslimani]

@YuThandar do you have recycleVideo Clappr playback option set to true with mobile ?

For example :

var player = new Clappr.Player({
  // [...]
  playback: {
    playInline: true,
    recycleVideo: Clappr.Browser.isMobile,
  },
});

[YuThandar]

@kslimani No, I did not test this feature. I will test this feature tomorrow.

[YuThandar]

@kslimani Yes, I did insert this feature in my code.And I used IMA latest version can't support in mobile
device.

[kslimani]

I did some additional tests on mobile devices but i can't reproduce the issue you described (ie: video is paused after ad). Would you mind sharing the code you are using to create the player and also provide which mobile model / operating system it is ?

[YuThandar]

@kslimani Sorry Sir, for late replying.Please, see the below my code link. Please check this code in mobile device.After 10sec preroll and then the video stop.This is IMA latest version.
