Question

HLS encryption VOD randomly stop playing on IOS

We have 4 AMS servers load balanced (DNS) with identical application on each. RTMPe is playing fine from flash desktops, however, HLSe on IOS devices randomly stops playing part way through the content. I do not see any relevant errors in AMS/Apache. The front end player shows the following errors when the content stops playing:

"CoreMediaErrorDomain" "No response for media file in 0.49632s"

"CoreMediaErrorDomain" "Segment exceeds specified bandwidth for variant"


Similar issues discussed here: http://openradar.io/15060374 (thought not AMS specific).


This could be a player issue. It seems to randomly have issues grabbing an HLS segment. Has anyone else had any similar issues?
