Description

I've gone ahead and setup transcoding similar to configuration mentioned in https://github.com/linkedin/LiTr/issues/25

This is working well and the output video is line with how I expect. However, when playing back on Safari, I'm noticing a green overlay persisting for the first 4-5 seconds of the video where it then goes back to normal. If you scrub back to the beginning, the green overlay is removed, but quality is deteriorated during this 4-5 second period.

Any recommendations for this? Thank you for creating this library!

Research direction

Start by reproducing Safari playback with the transcoding configuration described in linked issue 25, comparing the first 4–5 seconds with playback after scrubbing back to the beginning. Done means the green overlay is absent during initial playback and video quality remains consistent throughout that period.
