Song Caching

[3titter]

Would it be possible to introduce a feature that temporarily caches songs as they are playing rather than direct streaming?

Yeah totally

Right now there is a feature that downloads tracks as they are played, but I'd like to make our new player module handle this caching for us

@riteshshukla04 you think that we could do that? Have Nitro Player cache songs as they are played?

We cache songs and also perodically remove them . Since these are audio assets , caching too much of these in memory will just jank the app and OOM

I used to use another player that cached 1-2 songs ahead in queue during play so that there was seem-less transition even if my internet service for my JF server was... not great and then just deleted once played. It worked out pretty well for me since I don't have access to high quality internet service.

we cache 30 seconds up front. I can change it to 3 songs . But @anultravioletaurora In that case we will be needing 3 urls upfront.
