Description

We have a long VOD that is split into 10 second .ts segments. Most of them are fine but some of them have muted audio since they contain copyrighted songs. Apparently Twitch messes something up when muting them, resulting in choppy and laggy playback on windows and ffmpeg reporting they are faulty. Despite my best efforts to fix them using ffmpeg and various google searches I have had no success. VideoJS while loading them via a hls playlist freezes, the timer continues to run but the image is stuck. After a few minutes once the muted segments are over I can hear audio again but the image is still frozen. Even with debug enabled I can't seem to find anything out of line.

Sources

Is a certain source or a certain segment affected? please provide a public (accessible over the internet) link to it below. Yes every muted segment downloaded from Twitch VODs.

Steps to reproduce

Explain in detail the exact steps necessary to reproduce the issue.

  1. Download a muted Twitch VOD Segment
  2. Attempt to play it via Video.JS
  3. voila.

Results

Expected

I expect the video playback to continue, the audio is muted and that is not a problem, we have added a banner to notify the users that some parts are muted. The Video Playback tho, should continue without issues.

Error output

None

Just a small update, in order to double check if its caused by videojs or by the footage I used https://github.com/video-dev/hls.js (and their demo at: https://hlsjs.video-dev.org/demo) and saw that this player can playback the footage without issues.

So this must be a video.js issue, I really hope this helps you guys since I don't want to redo all the styling and setting up for a completely different player
