Why aren't all streams being played in playerJS?

Question

JavaScript

There are 50 streams of TV channels, they are all identical in codecs, but some work fine, some do not play. In the browser, network downloads segments, there are no errors in the console, the playback time of all segments is shown, but the video itself is not played. Server on Astra. What could be the problem? Everything works fine in vlc.

Answer 1

VLC is a desktop player, it has completely different capabilities. Playerjs uses pure hls.js , so look at the library requirements (MPEG-2 Transport Stream and AAC/MP3 streams into ISO BMFF (MP4) fragments).
