Handle "Uncaught error: no bytes available" about hls.js

[mangui]

@fostertheweb you can eventually disable the worker to get more clue on the issue: https://github.com/dailymotion/hls.js/blob/master/API.md#enableworker
var hls = new Hls( { enableWorker:false});

if you could share a sample stream it would help as well.

@mangui after setting enableWorker: false when the error happens it points to line 26 of exp-golomb.js instead of a blob file as the source of the error.

I'm using an API to get an HLS URI and passing that to loadSource()

[mangui]

ok could you share a stream URI with which I can repro ?

[fostertheweb]

http://video-edge-835e40.ord02.hls.ttvnw.net/hls-8c734c/scarra_17468456800_…edge-835e40.ord02,fmt=chunked&sig=1ae62b607e09f1e4c21d3a7f9d28bf291f6410b1

That is the URI from the m3u8 playlist file.

It is for a channel currently streaming on Twitch.tv, if the channel is not streaming when you see this there are many ways to get another URL

This blog post details how to retrieve the URL.

There are also a few packages on npm doing the same thing:

• twitch-get-stream
• twitch-url

@fostertheweb
your streams should now work. plz recheck and close the ticket if everything is running fine on your side.

[fostertheweb]

awesome work, not experiencing the problem anymore. okay to close, but should the version number be bumped?

[mangui]

Yes, this is worth it. Will do next week
