[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] libavformat/dashenc: add an option to the dash muxer to create smaller manifests during live streams

[Mathias Lacaud]

Add an option 'live_window_size' which sets the maximum number of 
segments kept in the manifest during the transcoding. At the end, all of 
the segments are written in the manifest. Ignored if window_size is not 
set to 0. This option may be used to create smaller manifests during 
live streams and then get the full manifest at the end for offline replay.
