BSplayer hangs when trying to watch LiveTV stream.

[erik]

I am trying to use BSplayer Free as an external player for the android app "Play SE" (unofficial Swedish Television App) since its the only player that actually provides voice sync and full frame rate on my Minix Neo X5.

This works almost perfectly, the issue I have is when trying to watch the Live TV streams. It works flawlessly the first time but if you quit and try to load the live stream again it will just freeze. The only way to fix it is to open the application manager and clear the BSplayer data, cleaning the cache is not enough.

The problem is also seen on my Galaxy S3.

Does anyone else have similar problems or is this only related to PLAY SE app?

I have the same problem with HTTP Live Streams from a different app. These streams are hosted on the Akamai CDN. They are launched with the .m3u8 extension and typically contain several different resolutions/bitrates.

As soon as I switch from one stream to a different stream, or switch to a different app and then return to BS Player and the same stream, the steam will freeze and no longer be usable. I'll typically have to watch the rest of the event on a different stream/resolution.

It happens both with live streams and VoD streams. Both with HTTP Live Streaming protocol.

It's repeatable and happens every time. It would be great if there was a way to 'reset' the stream in the app.

BS Player app on Moto Droid 4.

We need samples of these streams.

Confirmed. We are on it.
BTW Great report with step by step procedure.
I wish more bug reports were like this.
