but if i revert back to 0.8.8 version of hls.js it plays okay

[robwalch]

Hi @Isaacjon.

Please provide an HLS playlist with the minimum number of segment(s) required to reproduce the issue.

Complete player logs (text) would be preferred over screenshots.

With audio? If you include segments missing audio or with corrupt audio, the stream will fail to play. Older versions may not have supported the audio track at all. While you might get video playback, excluding audio is not the correct behavior.

[Isaacjon]

If segment's audio was corrupted it wouldn't play in other online hls players

It is odd that the audio codec is listed twice:

sourceBuffer(audio/mp4;codecs=mp4a.40.2,mp4a.40.2)

[Isaacjon]

Then why other online hls players playing it?

I mean is it not supposed to be like that? Is this might be the issue hls.js player can't play it?

I don't know what "it" is. You must provide steps to reproduce the issue - that includes some sample of media that reproduces the issue for us to understand what exactly the problem is and how to fix it.

[robwalch]

In the m3u8 found in "kFrameUrl" you have the audio codec listed twice:

"avc1.640028,mp4a.40.2,mp4a.40.2"

Removing the duplicate codec string will fix SourceBuffer setup.

We'll address this in the next patch (v1.5.8). For now, you can test the fix in dev at https://hlsjs-dev.video-dev.org/demo/.
