MPEG-Dash in Chrome 48.0.2564.97 (Mac) broken

Wowza Streaming Engine
1

Hi,

It appears that live streaming with MPEG-DASH no longer works with Wowza and Chrome 48.0.2564.97 on Mac (released last Wednesday). It works fine on Windows, with the same Chrome version, and reverting to Chrome 47.0 on Mac fixes it. I’ve tested this in a player based on Google’s Shaka player, as well as the Wowza MPEG-DASH test player, with the same results. Is this an issue with how Wowza is doing MPEG-DASH or is it just a bug in the new version of Chrome for Mac?

Thanks,

Rhys
