#7158(avformat:new): Send "Accept-Encoding: gzip" on .m3u8 HTTP requests
#7158: Send "Accept-Encoding: gzip" on .m3u8 HTTP requests ----------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: DeHackEd | Type: enhancement Status: new | Priority: normal Component: avformat | Version: unspecified Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Reproduced by developer: 0 Analyzed by developer: 0 | ----------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Some live streaming servres (such as Youtube live feeds) can generate multi-megabyte .m3u8 files when uncompressed and on long feeds. Accepting gzip'd playlist files can both save bandwidth and dramatically improve playback performance. I've tested this by just using "Accept-Encoding: gzip" but I don't think that would be an acceptable solution. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/7158> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker

I have a couple of live-event streams that can generate a 1mb big playlist. It would benefit everyone if that m3u8 can be gzipped instead. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/7158#comment:1> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker
