Research direction

The report is a user's bandwidth-restriction scenario rather than a pinpointed fault, and the payload names no file, class or test. Reproducing it needs a network throttle and a live stream, and the five comments were not included, so any maintainer direction is unknown. Done would mean a diagnosis of the bitrate or adaptation logic that the maintainer agrees with, which is not visible here.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Target Bitrate : 3360000
ranges are :720p (above 3.3MB), 480p (1.2 to 3.3MB), 360p (less than 1.2)
Now I am restricting bandwidth to 3MB in router.
My expectation is, I should receive bandwidth less than 3MB and it should stream at 480p.
In my bandwidth restriction scenario, Fills occurs in many place even user received sufficient BW for 480p. Network was maintained around 2MB. Dropped frames also happening. How could I resolve this and what is causing this issue
