Nginx HLS configuration

I would want to configure HLS like that :

Decrease latency (last message)

CONF SRS HLS

But I don't find where is the location on that file or how to build that

(ubuntu, Nginx) Thank your for your help

Solution

  • This solution may not be ideal if you intend to provide a seamless playback experience with scrubbing/trickplay option. One of the important recommendation in hls authoring spec is to have a closed gop structure. That means every segment starts with an iFrame. So if you have a gop size of 10seconds, it is better to have a segment size a multiple of gop size. So smallest one would be a 10 second segment. This would enable the video players to start the playback from a scrub/trickplay to a linear mode much faster than a non-closed gop solution. In a non-closed gop solution, you may have advantage to start the playback faster but may not be smoother experience combining other cases.
