@Kevin Brosnan<mailto:kbros...@mozilla.com> ... has that temp file cleanup been
implemented for Android Gecko?
My use case is children viewing hundreds of 5s video clips per session. So it
may be best if I can prevent the caching of video to not happen at all. If
that is what's happening. I have preload turned off in the html/JS that calls
each video..
<video name="video_player" id="video_player" style="display:none" controls
preload="none">
<source src="mp4" type="video/mp4"/>
</video>
Once I watched a Google Developer announcement that talked about how they had
built a video play api that was good for streaming video. It would smartly
buffer video while checking the network speed and determine on the fly whether
to lower the resolution so the user did not encounter pauses. Could it be the
case that that technology is being used with Geckoview? If so ... is there a
way to turn off the smart buffering in cases where it is clear that the video
is local... i.e. no network delay?
This is not my first rodeo with buffering clogging up the works. With hundreds
of short video clips that all get exercised... preload="none" was the cure.
If GeckoView is smart buffering the beginnings of each video ... how can I turn
that off?
Thanks!
Bob

Maybe you are hitting a variation on
https://nam12.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbugzilla.mozilla.org%2Fshow_bug.cgi%3Fid%3D1555115&data=02%7C01%7C%7Ca8f63513e2bc4ca1f79608d80737106d%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637267280358298634&sdata=9qzX1q3B5pTrb0CZ0i1frIWn8QNEo9SHKElnMZVTv9M%3D&reserved=0
which is that the
app_tmpdir folders/files are not cleared. Comment 5 sounds
relevant/similar.
