Hi Wil -- That's a good idea. I don't have control over the server's streams (it's just icecast streamed mp3s). But do you mean to create a simulated HLS file locally?
I'd need to keep each segment very short though, maybe just 1 second long each? This way the file will appear to smoothly grow. Is that possible? Also, what is a recommended way to play back that will realize the HLS sequence has changed in the midst of playback.
