Could you give some examples of the devices this happens on?

This one eventually worked after a reload:

This one never worked under chromium:

You can see the little spinner that never goes away. I turned off my add-blockers in case that was the issue.
It did work under Firefox but was also very CPU intensive.

Thanks for the feedback and testing of this 👍
Was this on a computer?

The good news is that it works better with Firefox. The bad news is that it really grabs system resources -- like 10% of the CPU. I think this is because the "peering" part is actually working. Like 500 byte upload on FF compared to 50 byte on chromium.
Eventually, it finishes buffering (0 up/ 0 down) on FF.
You know, if I could just download the video it would probably take fewer resources.

Fedi.Tips 🎄 (feditips@mstdn.social)'s status on Sunday, 15-Oct-2023 18:49:47 JST Fedi.Tips 🎄 I use Firefox on Linux with a cheap laptop and hadn't noticed problems, which OS is this on?
I'm wondering if it is behaving badly on some setups... 🤔
About the chromium spinner problem, looks like this has been reported before and is fixed on the updated version of PeerTube:

Unfortunately my managed hosting provider hasn't updated to the latest version yet, I will ask them about updating.
