Flush buffer after src change. #4979

I have the same problem described here (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67196240/hls-player-clear-video-js-buffer-on-click) but i use vime js player with vue (player use hls.js). When i change src property, player play buffer on previous source (about 5 sec) and only after that play new src. It's possible to flush buffer using function or something else?

When using HLS.js you need to call hls.detachMedia() (or better yet hls.destroy()) before setting the src on the video externally. Generally if you re-use an HTMLMediaElement, you should call video.load() to unload media before setting the src again. detachMedia does this for you.
