possible to reduce latency for M3U8?

how do i reduce the latency for m3u8 ? is there a config that i can adjust the chunks in nimble streamer on ubuntu 16.04? currently i have more than 20 seconds delays. I'm trying to achieve less than 10 seconds of delay.

You can try to reduce Chunk duration on WMSPanel in Nimble Streamer -> Live Streams Settings on Global (or Applications, if you have defined it) tab to 2-3 seconds.
Also consider using SLDP protocol ( https://wmspanel.com/nimble/sldp ) for achieving low latency.

I'm having trouble getting reduced latency with LL-HLS m3u8 output. I have ssl working and VLC can see the HLS stream as HTTP/2. Chunklist shows "#EXT-X-PART-INF:PART-TARGET=1" just as it should be from LL-HLS settings. Vanilla HLS chunk size is reduced like your very good FAQs suggest.
Still my HLS stream latency is ~20 seconds, even on the WMSPanel internal JW player link.
Client can only accept m3u8 so I'm stuck. any ideas?

Hello, San.

At the moment, LL-HLS is not recommended for usage. Please read the notice on our documentation page:
https://blog.wmspanel.com/2019/12/introducing-apple-low-latency-hls-softvelum.html

Please do not hi-jack old thread that's not LL-HLS related at all, and start a new thread if needed next time.

Thank you.
