[FFmpeg-user] fmp4 streaming issues

[Robin van der Linden]

Hello,

can somebody explain why fmp4 currently does randomly break on seek 
and/or quality change using VideoJS and other players, while mpegts 
works 100% fine?
I really don't change anything on my encode command, except of the 
output format transport type:

mpegts (working):
-hls_segment_filename "{path}/f-%04d.ts"
-hls_fmp4_init_filename "init-{name}.ts"
-hls_segment_type mpegts'

fmp4 (not working):
-hls_segment_filename "{path}/f-%04d.m4s"
-hls_fmp4_init_filename "init-{name}.m4s"
-hls_segment_type fmp4'

I tried to find some more information onto this, but I'm not sure if 
this might be the issue: 
https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/list/?series=1018

Is somebody able to provide some more information onto these issues? Why 
aren't these changes already merged? Can I do this by my own, and if so, 
how?
