Closing because I think the question has been answered, and I’ve updated the live streaming docs page to try and make this behaviour more clear (this will go live with the next library release).

Maybe It’s too late to answer this question, but I think these lines are logic of determination (In case of HLS).

    boolean disableSpeedAdjustment =
        mediaItem.liveConfiguration.minPlaybackSpeed == C.RATE_UNSET
            && mediaItem.liveConfiguration.maxPlaybackSpeed == C.RATE_UNSET
            && playlist.serverControl.holdBackUs == C.TIME_UNSET
            && playlist.serverControl.partHoldBackUs == C.TIME_UNSET;
