Bunny Stream new Premium Encoding

[Solved]

Hi there, I just enabled Premium Encoding for Bunny steam. I’m not noticing any difference in the loading of videos using FV player. Is this supported or do I need to enable some setting?

Hello Tom,

Please ask Bunny Support if you need to do anything with the older videos which you are already linking to using the m3u8 file links.

I see that their new Premium Encoding uses the VP9 video format which won’t play on iOS if you have iPhone older than 15 or iOS version below 17. Overall VP9 has 93.5% browser support while MP4 has 98.4%.

So you might still need to store the MP4 versions too, which means you need to pay for more storage.

Thanks,
Martin

OK thanks for that. Will try it with a new video. The Premium encoding has the option to choose MP4 or VP9, or both… I might try it first with just the MP4 option.

Many thanks for the feedback.
Tom
