Description of Part Feature

Multi-rate rapid switchover and seamless switchover

Quick switch：Restart the player internally when switching and seek the play position of the last code rate.

Advantages:

• Through precision Seek, the playing position of two code rates can be connected perfectly.
• Fast switchover speed.

Disadvantages:

• Obvious lags of the player.
• Only support HLS switch.

Seamless switching：Internally switch the data source in the player, internally seek to the next code rate position, you can just refresh the decoder.

Advantages:

• The two code-rate playback positions can be perfectly connected through buffer frame loss.
• Seamless switching, without obvious stutter
• Support full format switch.

Disadvantages:

• Relatively slow switchover, which is related to the cache size and video code rate set by the user. The greater the size of the cache is, the slower the switchover is. The smaller the buffering is, the faster the switchover will be, but there is probability to occur lags.
