Hello Firefox support, where can i find a documentation about the "timeout" settings in the about:config? Thanks a lot. Michael Hardwiger from Werth Messtechnik

Details: We use a NGINX Server to provide HLS HTML5 Video over https. The videos runs great with Firefox. But after 20-30 minutes the video stop and we have to reload the page. I suppose with the timeout settings in the about:config i can solve this problem. But there are many timeout settings. Which settings are important for my task? Is there a documentation?

Thanks a lot Michael Hardwiger

If the connection is still open and active, I don't know why there would be a time-out. Do you see any indication of a problem in the Web Console or Network Monitor?

You might also look at logging, although it can be extremely verbose: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Debugging/HTTP_logging
