cannot get all of available resolution in HLS url

[robbywh]

Bug

i tried to get all of available resolution in HLS url, but i only got one resolution

Sample HLS url : https://bitdash-a.akamaihd.net/content/MI201109210084_1/m3u8s/f08e80da-bf1d-4e3d-8899-f0f6155f6efa.m3u8

When i tried to get all of available resolution via onLoad, i only got this list of videoTracks :

[{"trackId":"1","codecs":"","bitrate":0,"height":720,"width":1152}]

but when i tried in DASH url, it is working fine

Sample DASH url : http://dash.edgesuite.net/envivio/EnvivioDash3/manifest.mpd

[{"trackId":"v1_257","codecs":"avc1.4D401E","bitrate":1200000,"height":432,"width":768},

Steps To Reproduce

1. pass url via source={{uri: "https://bitdash-a.akamaihd.net/content/MI201109210084_1/m3u8s/f08e80da-bf1d-4e3d-8899-f0f6155f6efa.m3u8"}}
2. log the onLoad payload onLoad={(payload) => console.log("PAYLOAD : "+JSON.stringify(payload.videoTracks))} ...

Expected behaviour

1. get all of the available resolution

is there any solution or workaround about this?

[robbywh]

hello @mabudiman , the problem arise because i implement IMA SDK with preroll ads, i think it will work normally, if you use standard react-native-video

Hello, @RobbyWH is it possible to use hls videoTracks with IMA SDK? I have same problem with exoplayer, I get all data from onLoad event except videoTracks

[robbywh]

hello @arslan-akh , it is possible if you implement IMA SDK without preroll ads

but if you implement IMA SDK with preroll ads, you must use third party library like https://github.com/shinnn/parse-m3u8

because if the ads play in the preroll, the react-native-video cannot load the original videoTracks data
