Adaptive bitrate hasCongestion is always false

[penmatsa]

Hi @pedroSG94

When using adaptive bitrate in latest version 2.6.4 of RootEncoder as below line:

bitrateAdapter.adaptBitrate((long) bitrate, genericStream.getStreamClient().hasCongestion());

hasCongestion() is always false in low network conditions

Thanks.

Hello,

In which library version you can't reproduce the case?

Hi @pedroSG94,

We Worked with version 2.5.5 previously where hasCongestion() method is working Good.

But when Upgrated to version 2.6.4 facing with hasCongestion() not working for low internet conditions.

Thanks

Hello,

I think that the only change is that ktor was updated from 2.3.13 to 3.3.2
I did a branch for this case. Can you test using this branch (this revent the ktor version):
#1971

Hi @pedroSG94,

Using genericStream.getStreamClient().setSocketType(SocketType.JAVA) Socket but still the issue exists.

Thanks

I did other commit that revert the queue used in version 2.6.5.
Also, try use this method:

genericStream.getStreamClient().resizeCache(200)

In library version 2.5.5 the cache size was 200 and now is 400. hasCongestion method check if the cache size has a 20% or more filled.

Hi @pedroSG94,

Using genericStream.getStreamClient().resizeCache(200) is working good for our scenario of low internet connection.

Thanks for the support.

Hello,

That are good news.
I suppose that you can use last library version with resizeCache without use the others modifications.
