Hello!

I followed step by step [this link](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-configure-apple-hls-packetization-cupertinostreaming%28cupertinostreaming%29) and many different combinations, but no success:

cupertinoChunkDurationTarget: 2000, 4000 or 8000 (keyframe multiple)

cupertinoMaxChunkCount: 6, 8, 10, …

cupertinoPlaylistChunkCount: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, …

[Performance Tuning](https://www.wowza.com/docs/general-tuning) was done.

My HLS stream is stuttering and fast rewind sometimes. The same streaming is great by RTMP. I’ve tested with Android, Iphone and Windows VLC.

H.264 Video info: profile:Baseline, level:3.0, frameSize:448x252, frameRate:30.0, keyframe frequency: 2s, 440 Kbps

MP3 Audio info: 44100Hz Mono 64Kbps (and yes, I’ve tested with AAC, same results)

Wowza 4.1.1

Network bandwidth is no problem, 1Gbps dedicated and low use (\< 1%).

My local connection is pretty good (35 Mbps / 5 Mbps) Wifi for mobiles is N type.

Note 1: When Wowza is terminated, the streamings still running by some seconds until finish. So, buffering and download is OK, but no smoth sound (micro stops, rewinds and strange sounds)

Note 2: The video does not seem to be affected.

Note 3: I’ve published with FMLE, Wirecast and OBS, using webcam (Video and Audio), capture cards (osprey) and direct audio.

I’ve no idea what try anymore, please, help me!
