HLS provider shutdown when source stream is stopped
Since build 5.2.1920 it is possible to control HLS provider shutdown when a source stream publishing on the server is stopped. By default, the HLS provider is stopped with a delay
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
hls_delayed_shutdown=true |
The delay depends on playlist size
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
hls_list_size=8 |
Thus, a subscribers playing the HLS stream may play a rest of playlist if the source stream is stopped.
The delayed shutdown may be disabled if needed
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|
| ||
hls_delayed_shutdown=false |
In this case HLS provider will be stopped right after the source stream is stopped.
