Streaming through Wowza Streaming Engine (Apple HLS, Jplayer).
There are currently about 3 gigabytes of video. The first playback of the movie takes approximately 10 seconds of loading. Is there a way to increase the speed of the Wowza setup? Or is there another way to speed up?
We have an article specifically for addressing lower latency using Apple’s HLS. It can be found at the link below:

Specifically you will want to modify the cupertinoChunkDurationTarget value from the default of 10000ms to a lower value that matches your keyframe distance.
