> Streaming media in iOS has long load times
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-13445
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-13445
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: cordova-plugin-media
> Environment: iOS platform within cordova
> Reporter: Ashish Mehra
> Priority: Major
>
> Using the plugin, cordova-plugin-media, one can stream audio/video media. On
> the iOS front, streaming media can take anywhere from 8-10 seconds to start
> playing, even if the length of the media is < 10 mins.
> The culprit here is `automaticallyWaitsToMinimizeStalling` property, that
> seems to buffer a more than required amount of the media causing load time
> delays. In some cases, it actually downloads the entire media file before
> starting and on slow internet connections this can mean load times of > 15
> seconds.
> Disabling this property should make iOS media load times to almost instant as
> it will only buffer a default/set amount.
