📺 What
Removes
videoFramesNotAdvancingfeature from Dash.js. This was added during phase 2 of the low latency trial and uses the uncertified Video Quality API. The varying performance across devices of this interface led to a number of false positives.This combined with the addition of a
lowLatencyStallThresholdnow in mainline Dash.js and the resolution of the underlying Chrome bug that led to this workaround mean we can now safely remove this feature.🛠 How
Adds a temporary testing branch of a version of Dash.js without the
videoFramesNotAdvancingfeature.Removes plugin interface and reporting on the
PLAYBACK_FROZENevent thatvideoFramesNotAdvancingexposes.
