I have implemented Hls streaming library which is almost working fine but the problem is when I seek video forward the bufferStalledError is raised, and then screen blackouts until the segment is loaded. I have attached the fiddle link with this. If your network is very fast please throttle it if you want to see the blackout. I am not able to figure out how to do that. The ideal case should be the video should be processing at last frame processed, if the segment is loading.

The root cause for this was I was trying to recover media using hls.recoverMediaError(); . The Hls can handle itself what is expected. So, removing the recovery code just worked for me.

@Abdishek No error handling just this: const hls = new Hls({ maxBufferSize: 320 * 1000 * 1000 }); hls.attachMedia(video); hls.on(Hls.Events.MEDIA_ATTACHED, () => { hls.loadSource(streamUri); }); – ufukomer May 2, 2020 at 15:14 @Abdishek I've realized that this is happening only for a certain videos. Maybe something is wrong about transcoding. If you've an idea please share. – ufukomer May 9, 2020 at 14:13
