ts warning: discontinuity indicator
Posted: 12 Oct 2018 20:01
Hi, I am new to this forum. This is my first post.
I did a quick search in this forum and didn't find the related answer.
I am playing a HLS stream using VLC (version 3.0.4) and it plays fine - both video and audio.
However, I notice the "message" box (with debug level = 2 enabled), I am seeing "ts warnings: discontinuity indicator".
I know the Playlist(.m3u8) file has only one "DISCONTINUITY" tag at any one time. Why am I seeing so many of these warnings?
Should I be concern?
Any help or suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you!
