##Hello hls.js !

###first step : setup and support first include dist/hls.{min}.js in your web page and check whether your browser is supporting [MediaSource Extensions][]. [MediaSource Extensions]: http://w3c.github.io/media-source/ just invoke the following static method : Hls.isSupported()

 <script src="dist/hls.{min}.js"></script>
<script>
  if(Hls.isSupported()) {
 	console.log("hello hls.js!");
 }
</script>

###second step: instanciate hls object and bind it to<video>element let's

create a<video>element
create a new HLS object
bind video element to this HLS object

 <script src="dist/hls.{min}.js"></script>

<video id="video"></video>
<script>
  if(Hls.isSupported()) {
    var video = document.getElementById('video');
    var hls = new Hls();
    // bind them together
    hls.attachMedia(video);
    // MEDIA_ATTACHED event is fired by hls object once MediaSource is ready
    hls.on(Hls.Events.MEDIA_ATTACHED,function() {
		  console.log("video and hls.js are now bound together !");
    });
 }
</script>

###third step: load a manifest you need to provide manifest URL as below:

 <script src="dist/hls.{min}.js"></script>

<video id="video"></video>
<script>
  if(Hls.isSupported()) {
    var video = document.getElementById('video');
    var hls = new Hls();
    // bind them together
    hls.attachMedia(video);
    hls.on(Hls.Events.MEDIA_ATTACHED,function() {
		console.log("video and hls.js are now bound together !");
		hls.loadSource("http://my.streamURL.com/playlist.m3u8");
		hls.on(Hls.Events.MANIFEST_PARSED, function(event,data) {
         console.log("manifest loaded, found " + data.levels.length + " quality level");
		}
     });
 }
</script>

###fourth step : control through <video> element

video is controlled through HTML <video> element.

HTMLVideoElement control and events could be used seamlessly.

  video.play();

###fifth step : error handling

all errors are signalled through a unique single event.

each error is categorized by :

its type:
- Hls.ErrorTypes.NETWORK_ERRORfor network related errors
- Hls.ErrorTypes.MEDIA_ERRORfor media/video related errors
- Hls.ErrorTypes.OTHER_ERRORfor all other errors
its details:
- Hls.ErrorDetails.MANIFEST_LOAD_ERRORraised when manifest loading fails because of a network error
- Hls.ErrorDetails.MANIFEST_LOAD_TIMEOUTraised when manifest loading fails because of a timeout
- Hls.ErrorDetails.MANIFEST_PARSING_ERRORraised when manifest parsing failed to find proper content
- Hls.ErrorDetails.LEVEL_LOAD_ERRORraised when level loading fails because of a network error
- Hls.ErrorDetails.LEVEL_LOAD_TIMEOUTraised when level loading fails because of a timeout
- Hls.ErrorDetails.LEVEL_SWITCH_ERRORraised when level switching fails
- Hls.ErrorDetails.FRAG_LOAD_ERRORraised when fragment loading fails because of a network error
- Hls.ErrorDetails.FRAG_LOOP_LOADING_ERRORraised upon detection of same fragment being requested in loop
- Hls.ErrorDetails.FRAG_LOAD_TIMEOUTraised when fragment loading fails because of a timeout
- Hls.ErrorDetails.FRAG_DECRYPT_ERRORraised when fragment decryption fails
- Hls.ErrorDetails.FRAG_PARSING_ERRORraised when fragment parsing fails
- Hls.ErrorDetails.BUFFER_APPEND_ERRORraised when exception is raised while preparing buffer append
- Hls.ErrorDetails.BUFFER_APPENDING_ERRORraised when exception is raised during buffer appending
- Hls.ErrorDetails.BUFFER_STALLED_ERRORraised when playback stalls because the buffer runs out
its fatality:
- falseif error is not fatal, hls.js will try to recover it
- trueif error is fatal, an action is required to (try to) recover it.

full details is described below

see sample code below to listen to errors:

  hls.on(Hls.Events.ERROR,function(event,data) {

  var errorType = data.type;
  var errorDetails = data.details;
  var errorFatal = data.fatal;

    switch(data.details) {
      case hls.ErrorDetails.FRAG_LOAD_ERROR:
        // ....
        break;
      default:
        break;
    }
  }

Fatal Error Recovery

hls.js provides means to 'try to' recover fatal network and media errors, through these 2 methods:

`hls.startLoad()`

should be invoked to recover network error.

`hls.recoverMediaError()`

should be invoked to recover media error

error recovery sample code

  hls.on(Hls.Events.ERROR,function(event,data) {
    if(data.fatal) {
      switch(data.type) {
      case Hls.ErrorTypes.NETWORK_ERROR:
      // try to recover network error
        console.log("fatal network error encountered, try to recover");
        hls.startLoad();
        break;
      case Hls.ErrorTypes.MEDIA_ERROR:
        console.log("fatal media error encountered, try to recover");
        hls.recoverMediaError();
        break;
      default:
      // cannot recover
        hls.destroy();
        break;
    }
  }

`hls.swapAudioCodec()`

If media error are still raised after calling hls.recoverMediaError(), calling this method, could be useful to workaround audio codec mismatch. the workflow should be :

on Media Error : first call hls.swapAudioCodec(), then call hls.recoverMediaError()

###final step : destroying, switching between streams

hls.destroy() should be called to free used resources and destroy hls context.

Fine Tuning

configuration parameters could be provided to hls.js upon instantiation of Hls Object.

   var config = {
      autoStartLoad : true,
      debug : false,
      defaultAudioCodec : undefined,
      maxBufferLength : 30,
      maxMaxBufferLength : 600,
      maxBufferSize : 60*1000*1000,
      maxBufferHole : 0.3,
      maxSeekHole : 2,
      liveSyncDurationCount : 3,
      liveMaxLatencyDurationCount: 10,
      enableWorker : true,
      enableSoftwareAES: true,
      manifestLoadingTimeOut : 10000,
      manifestLoadingMaxRetry : 6,
      manifestLoadingRetryDelay : 500,
      levelLoadingTimeOut : 10000,
      levelLoadingMaxRetry : 6,
      levelLoadingRetryDelay : 500,
      fragLoadingTimeOut : 20000,
      fragLoadingMaxRetry : 6,
      fragLoadingRetryDelay : 500,
      startFragPrefech : false,
      appendErrorMaxRetry : 3,
      loader : customLoader,
      fLoader: customFragmentLoader,
      pLoader: customPlaylistLoader,
      xhrSetup : XMLHttpRequestSetupCallback,
      abrController : customAbrController,
      timelineController: TimelineController,
      enableCEA708Captions: true
    };


var hls = new Hls(config);

`Hls.DefaultConfig get/set`

this getter/setter allows to retrieve and override Hls default configuration. this configuration will be applied by default to all instances.

`debug`

(default false)

setting config.debug=true will turn on debug logs on JS console. a logger object could also be provided for custom logging : config.debug=customLogger

`autoStartLoad`

(default true)

if set to true, start level playlist and first fragments will be loaded automatically, after triggering of Hls.Events.MANIFEST_PARSED event
if set to false, an explicit API call (hls.startLoad()) will be needed to start quality level/fragment loading.

`defaultAudioCodec`

(default undefined)

if audio codec is not signaled in variant manifest, or if only a stream manifest is provided, hls.js tries to guess audio codec by parsing audio sampling rate in ADTS header. if sampling rate is less or equal than 22050 Hz, then hls.js assumes it is HE-AAC, otherwise it assumes it is AAC-LC. This could result in bad guess, leading to audio decode error, ending up in media error. it is possible to hint default audiocodec to hls.js by configuring this value as below:

mp4a.40.2 (AAC-LC) or
mp4a.40.5 (HE-AAC) or
undefined (guess based on sampling rate)

`maxBufferLength`

(default 30s)

maximum buffer Length in seconds. if buffer length is/become less than this value, a new fragment will be loaded. this is the guaranteed buffer length hls.js will try to reach, regardless of maxBufferSize.

`maxBufferSize`

(default 60 MB)

'minimum' maximum buffer size in bytes. if buffer size upfront is bigger than this value, no fragment will be loaded.

`maxBufferHole`

(default 0.3s)

'maximum' inter-fragment buffer hole tolerance that hls.js can cope with. When switching between quality level, fragments might not be perfectly aligned. This could result in small overlapping or hole in media buffer. This tolerance factor helps cope with this.

`maxSeekHole`

(default 2s)

in case playback is stalled, and a buffered range is available upfront, less than maxSeekHole seconds from current media position, hls.js will jump over this buffer hole to reach the beginning of this following buffered range. maxSeekHole allows to configure this jumpable threshold.

`maxMaxBufferLength`

(default 600s)

maximum buffer Length in seconds. hls.js will never exceed this value. even if maxBufferSize is not reached yet.

hls.js tries to buffer up to a maximum number of bytes (60 MB by default) rather than to buffer up to a maximum nb of seconds. this is to mimic the browser behaviour (the buffer eviction algorithm is starting after the browser detects that video buffer size reaches a limit in bytes)

config.maxBufferLength is the minimum guaranteed buffer length that hls.js will try to achieve, even if that value exceeds the amount of bytes 60 MB of memory. maxMaxBufferLength acts as a capping value, as if bitrate is really low, you could need more than one hour of buffer to fill 60 MB....

`liveSyncDurationCount`

(default 3)

edge of live delay, expressed in multiple of EXT-X-TARGETDURATION. if set to 3, playback will start from fragment N-3, N being the last fragment of the live playlist. decreasing this value is likely to cause playback stalls.

`liveMaxLatencyDurationCount`

(default Infinity)

maximum delay allowed from edge of live, expressed in multiple of EXT-X-TARGETDURATION. if set to 10, the player will seek back to liveSyncDurationCount whenever the next fragment to be loaded is older than N-10, N being the last fragment of the live playlist. If set, this value must be stricly superior to liveSyncDurationCount a value too close from liveSyncDurationCount is likely to cause playback stalls.

`enableWorker`

(default true)

enable webworker (if available on browser) for TS demuxing/MP4 remuxing, to improve performance and avoid lag/frame drops.

`enableSoftwareAES`

(default true)

enable to use JavaScript version AES decryption for fallback of WebCrypto API.

`fragLoadingTimeOut`/`manifestLoadingTimeOut`/`levelLoadingTimeOut`

(default 60000ms for fragment/10000ms for level and manifest)

URL Loader timeout. A timeout callback will be triggered if loading duration exceeds this timeout. no further action will be done : the load operation will not be cancelled/aborted. It is up to the application to catch this event and treat it as needed.

`fragLoadingMaxRetry`/`manifestLoadingMaxRetry`/`levelLoadingMaxRetry`

(default 3)

max nb of load retry

`fragLoadingRetryDelay`/`manifestLoadingRetryDelay`/`levelLoadingRetryDelay`

(default 1000ms)

initial delay between XmlHttpRequest error and first load retry (in ms) any I/O error will trigger retries every 500ms,1s,2s,4s,8s, ... capped to 64s (exponential backoff)

prefetch start fragment although media not attached

`startFragPrefetch`

(default false)

start prefetching start fragment although media not attached yet

max nb of append retry

`appendErrorMaxRetry`

(default 3)

max number of sourceBuffer.appendBuffer() retry upon error. such error could happen in loop with UHD streams, when internal buffer is full. (Quota Exceeding Error will be triggered). in that case we need to wait for the browser to evict some data before being able to append buffer correctly.

`loader`

(default : standard XmlHttpRequest based URL loader)

override standard URL loader by a custom one. could be useful for P2P or stubbing (testing).

Use this, if you want to overwrite both the fragment and the playlist loader.

Note: If fLoader or pLoader are used, they overwrite loader!

var customLoader = function() {

  /* calling load() will start retrieving content at given URL (HTTP GET)
  params :
  url : URL to load
  responseType : xhr response Type (arraybuffer or default response Type for playlist)
  onSuccess : callback triggered upon successful loading of URL.
              it should return xhr event and load stats object {trequest,tfirst,tload}
  onError :   callback triggered if any I/O error is met while loading fragment
  onTimeOut : callback triggered if loading is still not finished after a certain duration
  timeout : timeout after which onTimeOut callback will be triggered(if loading is still not finished after that delay)
  maxRetry : max nb of load retry
  retryDelay : delay between an I/O error and following connection retry (ms). this to avoid spamming the server.
  */
  this.load = function(url,responseType,onSuccess,onError,timeout,maxRetry,retryDelay) {}

  /* abort any loading in progress */
  this.abort = function() {}
  /* destroy loading context */
  this.destroy = function() {}
  }

`fLoader`

(default : undefined)

This enables the manipulation of the fragment loader. Note: This will overwrite the default loader, as well as your own loader function (see above).

var customFragmentLoader = function() {
    //See loader for details
  }

`pLoader`

(default : undefined)

This enables the manipulation of the playlist loader. Note: This will overwrite the default loader, as well as your own loader function (see above).

var customPlaylistLoader = function() {
    //See loader for details
  }

`xhrSetup`

(default : none)

XmlHttpRequest customization callback for default XHR based loader.

parameter should be a function with one single argument (of type XMLHttpRequest). If xhrSetup is specified, default loader will invoke it before calling xhr.send(). This allows user to easily modify/setup XHR. see example below.

var config = {
  xhrSetup: function(xhr, url) {
    xhr.withCredentials = true; // do send cookies
  }
}

`abrController`

(default : internal ABR controller)

customized Adaptive Bitrate Streaming Controller

parameter should be a class providing 2 getter/setters and a destroy() method:

get/set nextAutoLevel : get/set : return next auto-quality level/force next auto-quality level that should be returned (currently used for emergency switch down)
get/set autoLevelCapping : get/set : capping/max level value that could be used by ABR Controller
destroy() : should clean-up all used resources

`timelineController`

(default : internal track timeline controller)

customized text track syncronization controller

parameter should be a class a destroy() method:

destroy() : should clean-up all used resources

`enableCEA708Captions`

(default : true)

whether or not to enable CEA-708 captions

parameter should be a boolean

Video Binding/Unbinding API

`hls.attachMedia(videoElement)`

calling this method will :

bind videoElement and hls instance,
create MediaSource and set it as video source
once MediaSource object is successfully created, MEDIA_ATTACHED event will be fired.

`hls.detachMedia()`

calling this method will :

unbind VideoElement from hls instance,
signal the end of the stream on MediaSource
reset video source (video.src = '')

Quality switch Control API

by default, hls.js handles quality switch automatically, using heuristics based on fragment loading bitrate and quality level bandwidth exposed in the variant manifest. it is also possible to manually control quality swith using below API:

`hls.levels`

return array of available quality levels

`hls.currentLevel`

get : return current playback quality level

set : trigger an immediate quality level switch to new quality level. this will pause the video if it was playing, flush the whole buffer, and fetch fragment matching with current position and requested quality level. then resume the video if needed once fetched fragment will have been buffered. set to -1 for automatic level selection

`hls.nextLevel`

get : return next playback quality level (playback quality level for next buffered fragment). return -1 if next fragment not buffered yet.

set : trigger a quality level switch for next fragment. this could eventually flush already buffered next fragment set to -1 for automatic level selection

`hls.loadLevel`

get : return last loaded fragment quality level.

set : set quality level for next loaded fragment set to -1 for automatic level selection

`hls.firstLevel`

get : first level index (index of first level appearing in Manifest. it is usually defined as start level hint for player)

`hls.startLevel`

get/set : start level index (level of first fragment that will be played back)

if not overrided by user : first level appearing in manifest will be used as start level.
if -1 : automatic start level selection, playback will start from level matching download bandwidth (determined from download of first segment)

default value is firstLevel

`hls.autoLevelEnabled`

tell whether auto level selection is enabled or not

`hls.autoLevelCapping`

get/set : capping/max level value that could be used by ABR Controller

default value is -1 (no level capping)

Network Loading Control API

by default, hls.js will automatically start loading quality level playlists, and fragments after Events.MANIFEST_PARSED event has been triggered (and video element has been attached).

however if config.autoStartLoad is set to false, the following method needs to be called to manually start playlist and fragments loading:

`hls.startLoad()`

start/restart playlist/fragment loading. this is only effective if MANIFEST_PARSED event has been triggered and video element has been attached to hls object.

Runtime Events

hls.js fires a bunch of events, that could be registered as below:

hls.on(Hls.Events.LEVEL_LOADED,function(event,data) {
  var level_duration = data.details.totalduration;

Objects

Level

a level object represents a given quality level. it contains quality level related info, retrieved from manifest, such as

level bitrate
used codecs
video width/height
level name
level URL

see sample Level object below:

{
  url: ['http://levelURL.com','http://levelURLfailover.com']
  bitrate: 246440,
  name: "240",
  codecs: "mp4a.40.5,avc1.42000d",
  width: 320,
  height: 136,
}

url is an array, that might contains several items if failover/redundant streams are found in the manifest.

Level details

level detailed infos contains level details retrieved after level playlist parsing, they are specified below :

start sequence number
end sequence number
level total duration
level fragment target duration
array of fragments info
is this level a live playlist or not ?

see sample object below, available after corresponding LEVEL_LOADED event has been fired:

{
  startSN: 0,
  endSN: 50,
  totalduration: 510,
  targetduration: 10,
  fragments: Array[51],
  live: false
}

Fragment

the Fragment object contains fragment related info, such as

fragment URL
fragment duration
fragment sequence number
fragment start offset
level Id

see sample object below:

{
  duration: 10,
  level : 3,
  sn: 35,
  start : 30,
  url: 'http://fragURL.com'
}
