Hi, it seems that with HLS stream (m3u8), the volume meter doesn't work... Could you check please?

thank you

This looks like a known issue and as per this stackoverflow question, there seems to be no proper answer to this.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19403584/avplayer-hls-live-stream-level-meter-display-fft-data.

Basically the issue is that we need to get "tracks" from "playerItem.asset" and in case of HLS stream, the tracks property is empty. Hence we cannot connect audioMix to the track and volume meter wont work.

If you urgently need this feature, you can check the answer mentioned there.
