📺 What
Updates the version of Dash.js and the source of playback rate infomration
🛠 How
Updates Bigscreen player with a new version of Dash.js that adds two new settings;
lowLatencyStallThreshold- set a 0.3s to match conventional DASH streamingvideoFramesNotAdvancing.enabled- intended to catch and handle a chromium bug where video can freeze but audio continues.videoFramesNotAdvancing.threshold- the time in seconds the player must be in video frozen state before the handling mechanism above kicks inAdditionally, updates the playback rate plugin interface to trigger off the media element rather than the Dash.js event bus, this results in playback rate changes to 0 being available which can help validate the above settings
