Our team has implemented a video player using the HTML5 tag, but we have identified an issue with loading media files.
While Safari on iOS 18.0 downloads each TS file listed in the m3u8 playlist correctly, on iOS 18.4 and 18.5, a single TS file is downloaded repeatedly.
Our statistics indicate that approximately six requests are made per second for the same TS file.
Is this intended behavior?
If not, are there any known workaround or solutions?
If this issue is due to the OS or browser, are there any plans to address it in iOS 18.6 or a future release?
Could you advise on the proper channel to submit a bug report for this issue?
Similar issues have been reported in the past with WKWebView.
