Hi,
We recently enabled streaming of audio-only Apple HLS using transport stream (https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-configure-wowza-server-to-stream-audio-only-apple-hls-using-transport-stream) to allow JW Player 6 to play iOS audio-only streams from wowza. While that did the trick, it resulted in playback issues on iOS devices when using a poster frame. Playback is at a faster speed than normal with long pauses in between. Also, the poster frame takes a good 10-15 seconds to show up. On setting cupertinoPacketizeAllStreamsAsTS to false, playback is normal with the poster frame showing up immediately.
We used the precompiled version listed in https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-add-poster-frames-to-apple-http-streams-id3-metadata-for-app-store-audio-renditions for the tests.
Is this a known issue where a combination of poster frames + packetizing HLS as TS causes problems? If so, is there a fix in the works? We’re testing this with Wowza 3.6.2 patch 10.
Thanks
