Video not scrubbing #626
Comments
|
I noticed this as well. But it only seems to happen with Piped. Not with Invidious, though. |
|
This is true as when I was recording the video I was using a piped instance. |
|
@ooosssay Can you switch to a different codec? I think the problem only appears is with mp4. |

Currently, mp4 is one of the first formats chosen. But there are some issues when it comes to scrubbing/seeking. Therefore we only use mp4 as the last resort, this should give a better user experience. sort of fixes yattee#590 & yattee#626 & yattee#487 Also when choosing the AVPlayer in the Quality settings, disabled formats are hidden.
|
While I was testing this, stream was working fine but when I tried the other codecs they will stop loading when at a new timestamp or freeze the frame with audio still playing (might be the server) |
|
Yeah, it is better when using WebM over MP4 it seems, but still has some issues. Especially when scrubbing too far outside the current buffer. HLS or Stream is the way to go. I'll try to implement the missing features like captions and playback speed in AVPlayer, since it supports HLS and HLS is preferable over Stream IMHO. |

Did some digging. The problem is unrelated to the codec used. It seems more an issue with Piped. When scrubbing or jumping forward, Yattee requests new segments of the video, and it seems it that requesting these segments takes up a long time. Every so often, one has to wait up to a minute for the correct segment to be found. Then the playback continues. |

Reapply "move bestPlayable to PlayerBackend" This reverts commit dd129fe5a96cc8d7cab3371aec9e8f9bfb65cfa2. changing to wording some finetuning

By default all videos on Piped are proxied via the instance. This comes with severe playback issues. Allowing the user to not proxy the videos should give a better playback experience. This should fix a bunch of playback issues: yattee#626, yattee#590, yattee#585, yattee#498, yattee#400
Merged

I added a new feature. When instances are not proxied, Yattee first checks the URL to make sure it is not a restricted video. Usually, music videos and sports content can only be played back by the same IP address that requested the URL in the first place. That is why some videos do not play when the proxy is disabled. This approach has multiple advantages. First and foremost, It reduced the load on Invidious/Piped instances, since users can now directly access the videos without going through the instance, which might be severely bandwidth limited. Secondly, users don't need to manually turn on the proxy when they want to watch IP address bound content, since Yattee automatically proxies such content. Furthermore, adding the proxy option allows mitigating some severe playback issues with invidious instances. Invidious by default returns proxied URLs for videos, and due to some bug in the Invidious proxy, scrubbing or continuing playback at a random timestamp can lead to severe wait times for the users. This should fix numerous playback issues: yattee#666, yattee#626, yattee#590, yattee#585, yattee#498, yattee#457, yattee#400
