Description

A basic test seems to indicate switching to StageVideo can make HLS playback pretty smooth, even on older devices. Some intermittent ticks from demuxing are still visible, but overall the performance is much smoother (720p content, 2008 MacBook).

The question to resolve now is who should "own" the StageVideo/Video elements and switching logic. The framework or the provider? There's pros and cons to both.

  • Resolution set to fixed

Supported StageVideo by abstracting it out of the HLS stack. The chromeless test player now uses StageVideo while the actual provider still uses Video.
