replay stops after last segment created about scte-35_hls_x9k3 HOT 7 CLOSED

Dude, that's just some random on my server, I would not use that for any kind of testing.
At least re-encode it, I don't even know what codec it uses to be honest with you.

When I get some time I will look at the discontinuity issue.

I think I know what is causing that... give me a minute.

This should fix it.

python3 -mpip install --upgrade x9k3

This fix solved issue above (replay stops after last segment created). THX!

However there must be another thing, since the play on segments with EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY does not continue smooth. Same source file as above. Same config, just updated x9k3 version to new. Problem detected with ~seg32.ts, ...seg134.ts, seg187.ts ...

When testing in browser using VideoJS 7 in Chrome on windows 10, I see some report in console of browser around segment with EXT-X_DISCONTINUITY (this is I believe where stream is restarted from beggining):
Segment with index 3 from playlist 0-https://edited.com/variant0/index.m3u8 has a duration of 10.431999999999988 when the reported duration is 5.339 and the target duration is 3. For HLS content, a duration in excess of the target duration may result in playback issues. See the HLS specification section on EXT-X-TARGETDURATION for more details

and video player stops and browser is re-fetching same segments a few time (in should normally just move on) then stops.

Is that with the longb.ts video?

from scte-35_hls_x9k3.

yes, longb.ts

from scte-35_hls_x9k3.

I double reset the stream when I fixed the loop, wait 10 mins and run pip again.

If you are using something with a big GOP like that , you can adjust the seconds with the -t switch and
that will up the target duration.

target duration is hard to predict,
You cannot change the target duration on a playlist,
and the you cant just make it a big number because target duration *3 cannot exceed the total seconds of the playlist.

longb is a kick ass video though, I ride longboards.
