On Ubuntu 18.04, with a fresh install of PeerTube 3.1.0, no plugin, the webtorrent videos are working, however, when trying to broadcast a video with HLS with P2P, the video fails to run with two JS errors printed to the console.
HLS.js error: mediaError - fatal: false - fragParsingError
HLS.js error: mediaError - fatal: false - bufferAddCodecError
Can anyone point out what is wrong with HLS?

Hi,
Please check your ffmpeg version that should >= 4.1
Indeed, it was the problem! I had a 3.x version of ffmpeg.
On Ubuntu 18.04, it turns out that snap is installing the 3.x version, just like apt (default flavor).
In the end, I found the solution to install ffmpeg 4.x at https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2020/06/install-ffmpeg-4-3-via-ppa-ubuntu-18-04-16-04/
Thank you very much for your support. It’s enormously appreciated.
Best regards,
