Can't prevent preloading #97

Open Bocom opened 1 year ago

Bocom commented 1 year ago

I have created a basic Vue 3 component for video playback, but I can't seem to get preload="none" (or preload="metadata" for that matter) working.

Component code ```vue ```

I've tried setting it on the video element itself and as an option in the videojs call, but the video gets preloaded anyway. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm using version 0.11.3.

Unfortunately, hls.js, the default playback engine for videojs-mux-kit, doesn't respect that preload attribute/property by default.

The quick-fix is for you to try the VHS build of videojs-mux-kit. However, this does bring up something that we should support here.

Ah, I see, good to know!

I actually did try the VHS build but it didn't work for me, couldn't get the video to actually load (essentially the same component code), but figured that was a separate issue.
