Description

I used this library for audio buffer but the track doesn't start playing unless more than 22% is buffered first; It doesn't start instantaneously when click play song; Am using media player and API return audio with MP3 formats.

Thanks,

Research direction
Investigate the buffering strategy in the AndroidVideoCache library. Look at the proxy or downloader classes to understand why playback waits for 22% buffering. Check if there is a configurable threshold for minimum buffering before starting playback, and examine any related commits or pull requests. The issue lacks maintainer response, so clarify the expected behavior by reproducing the issue.
