Hello,
I’m having an issue with video playback in my app (using Cloudflare Stream with a React player). The videos play fine for me, but some users report that the video has no sound. We confirmed the videos are not muted and the volume is up.
Thanks!
I’m having an issue with video playback in my app (using Cloudflare Stream with a React player). The videos play fine for me, but some users report that the video has no sound. We confirmed the videos are not muted and the volume is up.
Key points:
- The issue happens only on specific videos, not all of them.
- It happens across devices (Android, iPhone, Web).
- Not all users face this problem.
- The audio stream does exist (checked with
, codec is AAC LC, 48 kHz stereo).ffprobe
- Cloudflare Stream hosting the videos.
- ReactPlayer (wrapped around HLS).
- What are the possible reasons only some videos lose audio across devices for only some users, even though they have valid AAC audio streams?
- Is there a recommended way to validate or re-encode videos for Cloudflare Stream to avoid this issue?
- Is there a way to get more meaningful error info from the player for debugging?
Thanks!
