Hi there,
|
Do you use a reverse proxy? |
No reverse proxy, Apache2, PHP-FPM7.3 and as I said, it's working fine through a browser. |
The bug still exists. It happens when the buffer underflows at some time during playback. It seems it improved for me slightly, because when I wrote the first report the underflow happened right at the beginning quite often. |
@ezaquarii as you had a deep look into media player: do you know a way to improve buffer underruns? |
@tobiasKaminsky For the video player - no. Audio player has different architecture, with playback in background. We control everything there. Video player does not use a dedicated player service - it's just loads URL into a First line of defense would be to increase buffer size, but tbh I'd assume that the player can recover fom an underrun itsef. We could also take a loot at |
Can we give a debug log to help you? Don't you encounter this issue too? |
Strange is that VLC also does not work. |

I would have assumed that VLC is better in terms of stability…
Could be a web server config issue?
|
Can you create us a test account, test if the problem occurs also there and if so send the credentials to tobias at nextcloud dot com with a reference to this issue? |

It's still a very annoying issue. |
There is an experimental switch to another video player in #8132 (comment) This apk can be installed in parallel. |
|
Thanks for testing. |
Good to know. So it worked. Don't know if it's normal that the current official build is not working at all then. |
Actual behaviour
Tapping on a video, it starts to buffer and starts to play a moment later. After a few seconds the playback buffer seems to be underflowing and the video stops for ever. It's not possible to make it play anymore.
Expected behaviour
The video player should wait for buffer to fill and continue automatically, when there is enough data to play again. It should also be possible to navigate back and play the video within the available data range.
Steps to reproduce
Environment data
Android version: 9
Device model: OnePlus A6003
Stock or customized system: stock
Nextcloud app version: 3.7.0 RC4
Nextcloud server version: 16.0.1 (FreeBSD)
Logs
Please tell me if you look for something particular in logs, I'll provide it. It looks like the relevant URI in the remote.php HTTP request (used for streaming?) contains sensitive information.
