Why Does a Video Freeze After CDN Is Configured?

A possible cause is that the video file is not cached on a PoP, resulting in slow requests.

  • You are advised to prefetch the video file before accessing it. After you submit a cache prefetch request, the origin server proactively sends the most current content to a CDN PoP to be cached. If a user requests the content, the CDN PoP immediately returns the cached content. It does not need to pull any new content.
  • For details, see Cache Purge and Prefetch.
