No response

Reproducible in the demo app?

Yes

Reproduction steps

When playing a LL-DASH stream, we observe Media3 is continuously switching between the available video qualities, as if there were issues with the available BW. We understand there were issues in the past related to LL-DASH, and the player not being able to assess the actual BW because of the use of CTE.

May we ask if those issues are still there? Isn't there any workaround that could help?

Thank you

Expected result

Media3 to stay in the best available video quality if there is enough BW for it.

Actual result

Media3 switching constantly through all the available qualities

Media

Apparently various LL-DASH streams producef by different video headends
