Description
When i play non livestream m3u8 streams every 2-3 minutes i notice a shutter in playback. It seams that the hls segment that should be play is still downloading. If I enable timeshift the problem is gone but im not able to seek. I would like to have a buffer for non timeshift based hls streams.
