allowChunklessPreparationForHls

Specifies whether the player should try to prepare HLS streams without downloading media segments. This is generally possible if the #EXT-X-STREAM-INF tag contains the CODECS attribute and may speed up startup time.

In case of muxed closed-caption tracks that are not declared in the HLS playlist, enabling chunkless preparation will cause exclusion of those tracks.

Default is false.
