The logic is applicable only when use_template is enabled and use_timeline
is disabled. The logic monitors the flow of segment indexes. If a streams's
segment index value is not at the expected real time position, then
the logic corrects that index value.
Typically this logic is needed in live streaming use cases. The network
bandwidth fluctuations are common during long run streaming. Each
fluctuation can cause the segment indexes fall behind the expected real
time position. Without this logic, players will not be able to consume
the content, even after encoder's network condition comes back to
normal state.
When use_template is enabled and use_timeline is disabled, typically
it is required to generate the segments at the configured segment duration
rate on an average. This commit is particularly needed to handle the
segmentation when video frame rates are fractional like 29.97 or 59.94 fps.
There are use cases where average segment duration needs to be configured
and muxer is expected to maintain the average segment duration. So, using
the name 'min_seg_duration' will be misleading. So, changing the parameter
name to 'seg_duration', where it can be minimum segment duration or average
segment duration based on the use-case. The additional updates needed for
this functinality are made the sub-sequent patches of this patch series.
When using hls_list_size with hls_flags delete_segments, currently
hls_list_size * 2 +- segments remain on disk. With this new option,
the amount of disk space used can be controlled by the user.

This reduces the need for an edit list; streams that start with
e.g. dts=-1, pts=0 can be encoded as dts=0, pts=0 (which is valid
in mov/mp4) by shifting the dts values of all packets forward.
This avoids the need for edit lists for such streams (while they
still are needed for audio streams with encoder delay).
This eases conformance with the DASH-IF interoperability guidelines.

Adds a `-hls_flags +temp_file` which will write segment data to
filename.tmp, and then rename to filename when the segment is complete.
This patch is similar in spirit to one used in Plex's ffmpeg fork, and
allows a transcoding webserver to ensure incomplete segment files are
never served up accidentally.

start_number option starts the playlist sequence number
(#EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE) from the specified number. Unless hls_flags
single_file is set, it also specifies starting sequence numbers of
segment and subtitle filenames. Sometimes it is usefull to have unique
starting numbers at each run, but currently it is only achiveable by
setting this parameter manually.
This patch enables to specify start_number source parameter by
introducing hls_start_number_source with 3 possible values:
generic/epoch/datetime. This ensures to set start sequence number
automatically for practically unique numbers. Generic option is the
default and this is the curent behaviour: start_number option value
specifies the start sequence number. (start_number default value is 0)
If hls_start_number_source is set to epoch, then the start number will
be the seconds since epoch (1970-01-01 00:00:00). If set to datetime,
then the start sequence number will be based on the current date/time
value as YYYYmmddHHMMSS. e.g. 20161231235659.
Hls speficication allows 64 bit integers as sequence numbers. This patch
also changes some code where only 32 bit integer values were handled
correctly.

1st:
This patch makes it possible to put actual segment file size (measured
in bytes) and/or duration (calculated in microseconds) into segment
filenames. This feature is useful when post-processing live streaming
access log files. New behaviour works only when -use_localtime option
is set and second_level_segment_size or/and
second_level_segment_duration new hls_flags are specified. %%s is the
placeholder for size and %%t for duration in hls_segment_filename
option. Fix sized trailing zeropadding also works eg. %%09s or %%023t.
A command to test new features:
./ffmpeg -loglevel info -y -f lavfi -i color=c=red:size=640x480:r=25 -f
lavfi -i sine=f=440:b=4:r=44100 -c:v mpeg2video -g 25 -acodec aac
-cutoff 20000 -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 192k -f hls -hls_time 3 -hls_list_size

-use_localtime 1 -use_localtime_mkdir 1 -hls_segment_filename

in filenames
Putting date/time values into segment filenames is very usefull.
But to produce non-conflicting segment filenames with -use_localtime
option with date/time
values in hls_segment_filename option, sometimes is not enough.
Like in cases when multiple segments produced in the same second.
But hlsenc currently does not make possible to use segment index (%d) at
the
same time whe use_localtime is in effect, due to identifier conflict.
This patch makes possible to use strftime identifiers and still put
segment index (%d) at same time in segment filenames by introducing
second_level_segment_index flag. When -use_localtime is active,
identifier %d is for month day index, so %%d is the segment index
placeholder. This enhanced behaviour only exists when new
second_level_segment_index flag is specified.
For instance putting 'segment_%Y%m%d%H%M%S_%%05d.ts' value into
-hls_segment_filename option and specifing -hls_flags
second_level_segment_index and -use_localtime 1, may produce segment
filename as 'segment_20161230235758_00002.ts'
An example:
ffmpeg -loglevel info -y -f lavfi -i color=c=red:size=640x480:r=25 -f
lavfi -i anullsrc=r=44100:cl=stereo -c:v mpeg2video -g 25 -acodec aac
-cutoff 20000 -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 192k -f hls -hls_time 3 -hls_list_size
5 -hls_flags delete_segments+second_level_segment_index -use_localtime 1
-hls_segment_filename "segment_%Y%m%d%H%M%S_%%05d.ts" stream.m3u8
will produce segments filenames:
....
segment_20161227005902_00013.ts
segment_20161227005902_00014.ts
segment_20161227005902_00015.ts

Add keyframe index metadata
Used to facilitate seeking; particularly for HTTP pseudo streaming.
1. read live streaming or file by sequence
2. if use add_keyframe_index option, add a mark flag at the position,
use to insert new context at the last step.
3. add the keyframes *offset* and *timestamp* into a list
4. if use add_keyframe_index option, shift the metadata data from
mark flag offset
5. insert the keyframes *offset* and *timestamp* from the list by
sequence
6. free the list
7. end.
