New description:
Using fMP4 segments with strftime and hls_init_time produces segments
which are too short and cannot be played back.
Example call:
{{{
./ffmpeg -y -i timer_1M.mp4 -acodec aac -b:a 64k -vcodec h264 -b:v 1M -f
hls -hls_segment_type fmp4 -strftime 1 -hls_segment_filename '%%18d.m4s'
-hls_flags second_level_segment_index+split_by_time -hls_time 0.6
-hls_init_time 0.600001 index.m3u8
}}}
This produces a segment 000000000000000006.m4s which is only about a tenth
of the size of the other segments. Running FFprobe on it (by creating a
dummy playlist with only this segment), it seems to contain only audio,
but no video frames.
Removing the hls_init_time parameter from the command "resolves" the
issue, i.e., the segments are then split correctly and have video frames.
