Hi there,

I have a WebM file generated with a combination of libvpx and libwebm. I'm trying to make a real-time streaming solution with minimal delay, so I ensured that a cluster would only contain a single frame. This procedure works fine in Chrome but causes Firefox to buffer indefinitely. You can find the video here:

If I allow the cluster size to be larger than a single frame, it appears to work.

Thanks!

I should note that I'm sending this over a WebSocket and I'm playing it back in a MSE video player. The format is VP8.

I opened in Firefox and it played fine, what ever it was.....what was it suppose to be ? Was just broken up colours like a over head projector thing from years past and coloured water. I am on FF 57 Final Release.
