Could you look in the HLS navigation bar: it´s not possible to move to a desired position due to the splitting of the video in very small parts

I try change standard HTML5 player to video,js, but video.js not fully play MPE stream, and i revert to standard ... MPE gives the stream in batches (I don't know who controls this VLC or MPE itself), but in the end we get not a whole playlist with pieces of video, but small playlists with pieces, the videojs player stops after playing the first playlist, the standard HTML5 one continues to work but does not allow displaying the full duration video, so I'm not sure if this can be fixed.

Only problem seems to be navigating to another position in the video shows endless spinning icon without any progress

The stream that gives the MPE cannot be skipped if it is not fully loaded. Previously, there was a separate player in the skin and a separate progress bar for control. And a trick was used in the form of stopping the player, transferring to it a new file for playback with a point in time from which to start, and it was loaded and played. Now we only have a player, I'll try to add the same trick, but I don't know if it will work.

But this will not be very correct, since cannot be skipped back ... Only forward. Well, or you need to add another progress bar and manage it, which is also not convenient ...

Perhaps this is a problem in the VLC, or in the settings or in 2.2.8, because streaming goes through the VLC. Maybe need to update it to the current version and check if everything works as before the update, check the functions further, it is possible to try to edit the transcoding profiles (but I don't understand anything here). If nothing comes of it, then add crutches.

Never change a running system

Agree but everything becomes obsolete and changes, if everything works with the latest vlc version, then why not update, there are many performance improvements and new transcoding functions. Maybe someday I'll figure out the profile settings, or someone will help, and we can improve what already works more or less.

BTW: My test are from 0.7.213

Yes, this is the current version, but I don't remember there are links to YouTube and imdb in details for the film.
And so on the players I did everything I could. There are no more ideas yet.
I will add support for video in pictures, I think to improve the receipt of Exif a little and update the VLC, these are the nearest plans.

VLC updated to 3.0.11 but not tested ...

Test results 0.7.216 (using Backdrop 0.7.213 because of no new version):
Movies are played correct with "Direct" profile, navigation on bar works perfect - new IMDB and Youtube buttons work perfect as well
Recorded TV: none of the available profiles work

Recorded TV: none of the available profiles work

IE new VLC not work for all modes except direct streaming? Any errors in logs? Can you attach?
