HlsProvider: video not loading when src is changed about vime HOT 7 CLOSED

Ah ye it's when switching between HLS (.m3u8) files. At the moment when changing the src the provider is calling hls.loadSource(newSrc); which is correct. I think some updates is causing a state change to mess with player. This usually happens when calling media.load() on the underlying HTML5 video player instance. If I have some time tonight I'll look into it.

The src prop should just work. I quickly tested switching mp4 videos and it was working. It might have something to do with updating Svelte to the latest version.

If you can just tell me what version of Svelte you're using, and what type of source you are switching, whether it's a YouTube video to a YouTube video, or a file to something else, then I can dig a little deeper in the issue.

Though I discovered some strange bug doing this which causes tooltips to position incorrectly after changing the source.

@mihar-22 Then I believe it could be a provider-specific issue. I'm using HLS / m3u8 file. Can you test on your end? I think it's less likely a Svelte issue because I tried doing it with only hls.js and it worked.

Closing this in favor of v2, feel free to provide any feedback. I'm also going to keep a reference to address the issue in the next release.

@mihar-22 This is not working in v5. I had to do hls.loadSource(newSrc) to get update.

Thank you for this. I was struggling with this today and confused why the src wasn't updating. For others that encounter this issue, I pulled the HLS object from the HLS's element for reference.

// Vue example
const vimeHls = this.$refs.vimeHls
vimeHls.$el.hls.loadSource(this.src)
