WebRTC does nothing for a few seconds after clicking play

[hernanrz]

When playing WebRTC, after clicking play, the player does nothing for a few seconds, no loading indicator, after a while it starts playing but this can be a bit confusing for users. This is specially noticeable on slower connections. Is there a way to add a buffering indicator immediately after clicking play?

@hernanrz Hi. I also experienced the same problem. And when the player is initialized, if the autoStart option is set to true, the buffering indicator is visible, but if it is set to false, the buffering indicator is not shown.

When I tested it, when the autoStart option is false, the buffering indicator is displayed for a very short time and it looks like it is not displayed. I think I should check why this is happening.

Same problem here, no loading indicator, no matter if used with autoStart true or false.

We are also checking However, this issue has a low priority and is difficult to work with right away. Please stay tuned! Thanks.
