    This API is dedicated only for Live and DVRLive media.

    To set the Low Latency,

                     .setTargetOffsetMs(15000L).setMaxOffsetMs(12000L).setMaxPlaybackSpeed(4.0f));

                        .setTargetOffsetMs(10000L).setMaxOffsetMs(7000L).setMaxPlaybackSpeed(1.5f));

CAUTION: If you want to use this API with Live -> VOD (While changing the media) content using the same player instance then you need to destroy the player before configuring the VOD media.
