How to reduce number of items in index.m3u8

[OnlyInAmerica]

When FFmpeg updates the index.m3u8 Kickflip catches the filesystem write and processes the updated manifest in Broadcaster#onManifestUpdated(...). Note the last two lines (three if it's the final segment) of the just-updated index.m3u8 represent the last chunk. You should be able to modify that logic to your liking. If you can do this cleanly via a new API in Broadcaster we'd be happy to merge your work into the SDK!

I don't believe the HLS spec allows specifying a non-first segment for playback to begin with so you're probably limited to manually changing how the index.m3u8 is generated.

Thanks, I will look into in in more detail
