Does anyone know if using alternative audio groups in HLS should work? Here's an example playlist:
#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-VERSION:7
#EXT-X-MEDIA:TYPE=AUDIO,GROUP-ID="aac-hi",NAME="English",DEFAULT=YES,AUTOSELECT=YES,LANGUAGE="en",URI="aac-hi/playlist.m3u8"
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=1777603,BANDWIDTH=1775895,VIDEO-RANGE=SDR,CODECS="avc1.64001e",RESOLUTION=720x404,FRAME-RATE=23.976,CLOSED-CAPTIONS=NONE,AUDIO="aac-hi"
https://example.com/video/playlist.m3u8
When I test this (using the wonderful
stream tester tool or within a feed) I get the first second or two of audio, then the audio cuts out. Video plays fine the entire time. This same playlist works correctly in Apple Safari and VLC. The audio seems to cut out right after the initial byterange in the
EXT-X-MAP row loads.
