Hi,

We have been using RTSP url to ingest into Wowza and convert it to WebRTC and view the streams in a HTML5 based WebPage.

Recently, we have a requirement to ingest HLS based stream to Wowza and convert it to WebRTC. We are able to do that but we have noticed that it takes Wowza longer time to connect to a HLS based stream compared to a RTSP based URL.

Please let us know if this is the expected behavior and how can we reduce this connect time for HLS based URL. I am sharing a public HLS url that you can use for your testing if required.

Sample HLS URL: https://wzmedia.dot.ca.gov/D10/SJ_SB99_OffToJackToneRd.stream/playlist.m3u8

Area: Playback
Engine Version: 4.8.5.05
