Playback of an HLS adaptive stream on Android KitKat is stuttering after you seek
There is an issue on Android KitaKat with HLS playback - when I seek with the progress bar, the video is stuttering. I know that KitKat introduced serious problems related to HLS, but I checked the same HLS with MX Player, on the same device, and seeking works fine, it doesn't cause any stuttering.
Could take a look into this, and perhaps provide some additional info about the cause of this?
Here is the HLS stream:
