Description

hello, I working with your player a while, currently I got an issue, if streamer got a network problem in short time (such as switching from wifi to 4g or vise vera ) the player goes into the buffering state, after a while it goes to playing state or even ended state, in both cases the viewer is frozen.
If I implement a mechanism to retry, I got this error `**com.amazonaws.ivs.player.PlayerException: Segment : ERROR_NETWORK : 404 : Segment download http error**` until 1 minute later.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the player state after a brief streamer network change, such as switching between Wi-Fi and 4G. Trace how the sample handles buffering, playing, ended, and the reported ERROR_NETWORK 404 segment exception. Done means the viewer is no longer frozen and transient network loss has a defined recovery behavior.
