Probably a hardware or network issue on our end (we're the government and we're a decade behind) but just wodering if anyone else is experiencing mp 4 video playback issues that are seemingly random. We already use extremely low res custom codecs (using the setttings from Connect 8 to format the videos) and nobody is on the VPN. Having people in the same room see one screen freeze up and another working fine - and thoughts?

Correct answer Jorma_at_CoSo

I see this in Chromium based browsers (Edge and Chrome) and the the desktop app (which is Chromium based). The simple layman's explanation is that Chromium solutions are 'lazy' and wait till the last second to ask for more portions of the video. The server gets tired of waiting and times out before the application asks for more, and thus the video freezes.

No resoution yet, but I'm trying to make noise to get some solution.

Yes, the issue has been resolved by 11.2.3a. I don't recall the exact version, but we've seen our customers no longer see this issue. Did you upgrade your environment to 11.2.3a or did you do a clean install of 11.2.3a? If you upgraded, be sure you did all the upgrades, including an upgrade to the Tomcat server.

Hi Jorma, we did an upgrade to 11.2.3a (both production and test environment).

In the test enviroment we only have one server so all functions are updated at the same time.

We did not try to run any mp4 movies in meetings before this verison so I do not know in which version the problem started I just know that we experiance it now 🙂

I have the same problem in both out test and prod on-premise environment. We are running version 11.2.3a.

As you say it does not matter if we are running with or without VPN or use different res. The buffer status is fine the movie freeze.

The movie freezes randomly for different participants in the same meeting. Once the movie has frozen it does not start again. If the movie freeze for a host it is still possible for the host to change the time in the time bar for the users that still se the movie. Strange 🙂
Have any of you found a solution?
