The current guidance says built-in playback can rewind livestreams and premieres. The application now uses HLS at the live edge and disables built-in live seeking.

Update the provider table, playback guide, and rewind feature entry to explain that rewind requires yt-dlp and an available DVR window; streams with DVR disabled cannot be rewound.

Application change: OpenTubeX/OpenTubeX#1764.

Validation: all 41 website tests pass; documentation links and Markdown changes checked.

Changes made by GPT-6.1-Sol through the Codex harness in T3 Code.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The documentation now states that Built-in plays live streams and premieres at the live edge without seeking. Rewinding requires yt-dlp and a rewindable stream from YouTube.

Changes

Live-stream seeking documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Document live-stream seeking behavior
src/content/extra-features.md, src/content/guides/playback.md, src/content/guides/providers.md
The pages specify that Built-in does not seek in live streams or premieres. They state that yt-dlp can seek when YouTube provides a rewindable stream, which may cover less than the full broadcast. The extra-features page also states that DVR-disabled streams cannot be rewound.

Review details

Systems and components

  • observed — src (service) was modified; 3 changed files map to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in src/content/extra-features.md: The description no longer presents rewind as experimental or generally available. It specifies that yt-dlp is required, rewind depends on YouTube providing a rewindable stream, and DVR-disabled streams cannot be rewound; the built-in method plays live streams and premieres at the live edge without seeking.
  • observed — Modified behavior in src/content/guides/playback.md: The guide replaces the general warning that live streams may not support seeking through the full video with a specific distinction: built-in playback does not support seeking in live streams or premieres, while yt-dlp can enable seeking when YouTube provides a rewindable stream, potentially for less than the full broadcast.
  • observed — Modified behavior in src/content/guides/providers.md: The Built-in description now specifies live-edge playback without seeking, replacing the previous claim that seeking works when YouTube provides a rewindable stream. The yt-dlp description now specifies seeking in live streams and premieres when YouTube provides a rewindable stream; its availability requirement and longer-startup caveat are unchanged.
