The change has caused regressions for many users and consumers. Playlist reloads only happen when a playlist doesn't indicate that it has ended (via #EXT-X-ENDLIST), which means that the addition of future segments is still expected. It is well possible that an HLS server is temporarily unable to serve further segments but resumes after some time, either indicating a discontinuity or even by fully catching up. With a segment length of 3s, a max_reload value of 1000 corresponds to a duration of 50 minutes which appears to be a reasonable default. --- avformat/hls: Partially revert "reduce default max reload to 3" This change has caused regressions for many users and consumers.
