Many video players(Hls.js) - how to improve performance

Question

I have a dashboard on which I run at least 5 videos at the same time using HLS (Hls.js). The problem is that the utilization of resources is very high, so the performance of the site is not the best(~50% CPU). Is there a way to optimize this ?

Answer 1

Switch to fMP4, it is mandatory for decreasing CPU usage with hlsjs.

We are using it in our flussonic for client-side mosaic and can put up to 16 players on single page.
