Usually these errors happen because the Decoder fails to handle the stream properly.
What would be a good way to have the web player recover automatically from those ?
Is there a way to make the player more resilient to these kinds of errors ?
Our web player doesn’t have such automatic recovery logic from a decoding error. We treat it as a device’s native decoder error or a browser’s MSE error, and leave the error handling decision to the application side.
On application side, reloading the same stream starting from the previous failed position (or +1s) can be one good option. If the errored rendition/bitrate information is clear, we can try to retry while excluding the failed rendition by having a custom adaptation logic using onVideoAdaptation or onAudioAdaptation.
Other useful debug options are also written in our error code documentation page so hope it helps. PLAYBACK_VIDEO_DECODING_ERROR: 1301
