Rendition report is not used when switching resolution on avplayer (safari 16.3)

I'm developing a LL-HLS feature.

When playing the LL-HLS that I developed in Safari, the EXT-X-RENDITION-REPORT tag does not seem to work when the resoution is changed by ABR.

When changing the resolution, the following request is made.

  1. Request without _HLS_msn and _HLS_part query strings when calling chunklist.m3u8 of different resolutions.
  2. Request including _HLS_msn and _HLS_part query strings after requesting chunklist.m3u8 of 1).

In a hls.js, when changing to a different resolution, it was confiremed that _HLS_msn and _HLS_part query strings were included immediately.

Network in safari

  • First chunklist.m3u8 request with different resoltuion

    • _HLS_msn and _HLS_part query strings not found in URL
  • Second chunklist.m3u8 request

    • _HLS_msn=7&_HLS_part=1 query strings included in URL

I tried putting paths in various patterns such as absolute paths and relative paths in the URL property of the EXT-X-RENDITION-REPORT tag, but is didn't work.

Is this the behavior of the EXT-X-RENDITION-REPORT tag? If not, I would be grateful if you could let me know what part needs to be corrected.
