- NAME is optionial now in the Hls Manifest
- Use the id field in Format to store the NAME instead of
a field in Variant to mimic DASH's behaviour
(see the DASH Id PR, which is not merged yet at this time).
When switching format in HLS, we instantiate a new extractor, which
adjusts TS presentation timestamps so that they align properly with
the start of the first segment in the new format. Some HLS streams
appear to have slightly misalignment that causes a glitch when using
this approach.
It's better to re-use the same timestamp adjustment across formats,
and only reset it when seeking or when there's an actual discontinuity.
This is because the HLS spec guarantees PTS timestamp alignment across
different formats.
We'll also need something like PtsTimestampAdjuster to share between
separated audio and WebVTT tracks, which also contain PTS timestamps
that are aligned, and will need to share a common adjustment.

When a live stream ends, what typically happens is that the manifest
is refreshed and the refreshed version is not marked as live/dynamic.
When this happens we:
1. Don't want the duration of the track to change.
2. Still want to consider the possibility that we may have fallen behind
the live window.
3. Don't want to allow futher manifest refreshes.
This change uses the right thing in the right place.
- Remove unused method in DashChunkSource.
- Remove inputEncoding parameter for subtitle parsers. We're
ignoring it in all but one of the parsers, and for the one
that does use it, it'll only ever receive null, since that's
all we're passing.
- Make TextTrackRenderer advance to the next subtitle even if
the current one hasn't finished, in the case that they overlap.
This shouldn't ever really happen, but it seems best to trust
the start time of the new sample rather than the last event
time of the previous one.
- Video track is always marked as adaptive, the resolution is
stripped out (since it's otherwise just set to whatever the
resolution of the first selected variant is), and the max
dimensions are set.
Issue #514
Remove MPEG TS stream filtering based on AudioCapabilities.
Pass AudioCapabilities to MediaCodecAudioTrackRenderer so it can choose between
passthrough/raw and decoding for AC-3 tracks.
Everything I've seen that uses ExoPlayer sets it to true, and
setting it to false is poorly supported / likely to result in
bad initial A/V sync after each seek.
Prior to this change, there was a bug where playback would
fail with the following steps:
1. Start playback.
2. Pause playback.
3. Disable all renderers.
4. Enable at least one renderer.
5. Resume playback.
An accumulation of several fixes:
1. Change to HlsExtractorWrapper is just a move + documentating
things that were already true + adding a precondition in the
configureSpliceTo method.
2. Change in HlsSampleSource.readData ensures that configureSpliceTo
and hasSamples aren't called on an extractor that isn't prepared.
3. The other change in HlsSampleSource ensures the correct "previous"
TsChunk is used. If a TsChunk fails to load and is replaced, the
previous chunk should be the one before that whose load completed
successfully.
4. Determine switchingVariantSpliced based on the actual format of the
previous chunk, so it's set correctly in the case of a TsChunk load
failure and subsequent replacement.
This fixes the case where we need to switch from one variant to
another during preparation, having loaded zero samples, because
the first chunk for that variant gave us a 404 error. In this
case the first extractor will have no samples, and there will
be a second extractor that does.
There was a mess where we were indexing into both a list of variants
and a (differently ordered and possibly of differing length) list of
formats. This sanitises everything.
to if the playlist load fails.
NB - I'm aware the casting is a bit messy, but I don't want a common
interface because I'm hopeful that TsChunk will go away at some point.
Issue: #537
This makes it so that it's no longer necessary to specify the number
of downstream renderers to HlsSampleSource, FrameworkSampleSource and
ExtractorSampleSource, by forcing the downstream renderers to register
with the SampleSource instances in their constructors. This eliminates
a common source of subtle client bugs where the passed value is incorrect.
