Checklist

The issue observed is not already reported by searching on Github under https://github.com/video-dev/hls.js/issues
The issue occurs in the stable client (latest release) on https://hlsjs.video-dev.org/demo and not just on my page
The issue occurs in the latest client (main branch) on https://hlsjs-dev.video-dev.org/demo and not just on my page
The stream has correct Access-Control-Allow-Origin headers (CORS)
There are no network errors such as 404s in the browser console when trying to play the stream

Steps to reproduce

Load the video demo demo-dev mypage
Pause the video (if using demo page).
Seek to 80.356.
After the previous seek completes, seek to 80.310.

Expected behaviour

The second seek executes and shows an image of a bunch of sheep in the street recorded from a distance (image at 80.310).

What actually happened?

The second seek never completes - we still see a closeup of the sheep, which is the image from the previous seek (80.356).

However, if we seek to 80.310 without seeking to 80.356 first, then this works and shows the expected image for 80.310. And even going back and forth between 80.310 and 80.356 works correctly, as long as we seek to 80.310 first, and not to 80.356 first.

If we use 80.7 instead of 80.356, seeking to 80.7 first, then to 80.310 will result in the second seek completing, but it will seek to the wrong frame - the first frame of the segment, instead of the last frame of the previous segment. And again, the reverse order, first 80.310, then 80.7 will work correctly.

Could be related to #6331.

Reproduced with other videos, too.

My page that allows for quickly testing this and uses maxFragLookupTolerance: 0. The issue reproduces with or without setting this value in the config.

My page that allows for quickly testing this and uses maxFragLookupTolerance: 0. The issue reproduces with or without setting this value in the config.

The test your page performs seeks to the last segment, which appends the end of stream and marks the stream as ended. Seeking back less than maxBufferHole only results in the stream-controller determining that the end is buffered and no more action is required.

Setting maxBufferHole to 0 fixes this.

tpazman · 2024-06-23T21:03:33Z

@robwalch thanks so much! This does help a lot, but it doesn't fully fix the issue unfortunately (I'm trying to fix it 100% because our use case relies on frame accuracy).

I tried 2 things:

I extended the stream by 40 more seconds: https://files.tpazman.com/hls/hlsjsseekissue/seekhang-long.html - now the sheep are no longer at the end of the stream, but behavior is the same as before, which is in line with what I saw with other videos.
I tried adding maxBufferHole: 0 to the config: https://files.tpazman.com/hls/hlsjsseekissue/seekhang-long-fix.html - this helps a lot but not fully. Now, if you press 80.356, then 80.310, it still doesn't work - just like before. But then if you press 80.310 a second time, it will work (the correct frame will appear). So the first seek to 80.310 still malfunctions, but maxBufferHole: 0 causes the second one to function correctly. Additionally, with maxBufferHole: 0 I am no longer seeing hanging seeks in any of my videos which is great.

Just in case it helps - I realized I never properly explained what I meant by "hanging" seeks. It is a seek that never completes if left to run - after modifying vid.currentTime in order to seek, vid.seeking stays true forever (or until you seek again). For example, here: https://files.tpazman.com/hls/hlsjsseekissue/hang.html if you press 80.356, then press "- 0.033 s" a few times (sometimes 2, sometimes 3 or 4), you can notice you will end up in a situation where it stays in the SEEKING: true state forever (this is the value of vid.seeking where vid is the video tag). This hanging seems to be resolved with the addition of maxBufferHole: 0.

Again, thanks a lot, this is already very helpful because the hanging issue was a huge headache for us. If you have any ideas on how to get the seek to reliably work on the first attempt, that would be amazing.

robwalch · 2024-06-23T21:20:25Z

When you seek to a time near the start of a buffered range (video.buffered.start(n)) while paused, chrome renders the nearest frame even though the video buffer is empty at current time. I would assume the seek is resolved once rendering is updated even though the frame at current time has yet to be appended. After appending the video at current time it may not render or resolve until you play, or until you seek again once the range is buffered.

tpazman · 2024-06-26T11:21:40Z

@robwalch that helped me a lot (again :).

It seems like the following is a workaround for Chrome:

when setting video.currentTime while paused, remember the value as lastSeekTarget
on seeked event, check video.buffered and see if lastSeekTarget is within one of the ranges - if not, set the badSeekDetected flag
periodically (such as on requestAnimationFrame), if badSeekDetected is set, check video.buffered, and if lastSeekTarget is within one of the ranges, set video.currentTime to lastSeekTarget and unset badSeekDetected - basically we're waiting for the buffer to contain the correct frame and then repeating the seek which then draws the correct frame

Unfortunately this workaround doesn't help in Firefox (which has the same issue), because Firefox reports video.buffered as already containing the expected range (that contains the seek target time) when seeked fires, even though the target frame was not drawn. So we can't detect the bad seek, at least not with this method.

Hi @tpazman,

I posted #6524 which removes the need for setting maxFragLookupTolerance and maxBufferHole to 0 to get the expected fragment loading behavior when seeking back or seeking while paused near a segment/buffered boundary.

You can try it here https://bugfix-backward-seek-near-en.hls-js-4zn.pages.dev/demo/

It does not address the rendering issue that requires additional seeks that you describe above. I call this out in the description (#6524). I consider that a flaw in MSE that must be worked around, which could be addressed by HLS.js. For this we should make a new issue specifically calling out browser behavior that we would like changed for specific use-cases (like stepping back fame-by-frame while paused).

tpazman · 2024-07-03T14:13:17Z

@robwalch thanks, I checked with the hls.js code from your link and like you said, setting maxFragLookupTolerance and maxBufferHole to 0 seems to no longer be needed with that version, while the "seek repetition" workaround is still needed.
