As I said I don't support HLS (I have no Apple stuff to be the reference
player) - it is as Triode left it. Most of the settings in the
BBCiPlayer plugin now only affect DASH such as bitrate and delay.
My theory. For some reason there is a long delay in setting up the
transcoding chain - if there isn't enough data "ready" - it chokes
("rebuffering"). By starting the live stream a bit before "realtime" it
enables a burst of data to be fetched and so kick start the transcoding
chain with no delay.
It is very unusual that you need to keep the setting at 3 mins as that
is a huge amount of data to prefetch. This isn't a VM or similar ? Is
the clock on your system set up to get "network" time ?
To get to the bottom of this problem - I need to get Win10 but I have no
other incentive to do so as it is not my main system.
