Description
It seems in some case ExoPlayer will try to seek when it have buffer underrun due to bad network or low network quality. (I guess but don't know all the cases)
Some sources I have (mainly when transcoding on server side) are not seekable and this cause the media to start again from the start.
Is there a way to tell ExoPlayer to not do that for some media but not the others, or a way to prevent that behaviour completely via a parameter somewhere?
The other solution would be that I could intercept that internal seek and restart the transcoding at the new requested timing (So updating the media url with new parameters basically)
