Start delay is really only for Windows and is only there to help the
startup of the socketwrapper transcoding chain typically on low end PC
systems. It will no really do anything on Linux except change the start
time of the stream (i.e. the timecode of 

the first packet).  You have a problem not getting a packet in the
middle of streaming.  Network loads (e.g. morning and evening) will
increase packet response time. 

This happens to me occassionally but I'm pretty sure it is due to local
WLAN (Homelink) having a bad moment.

It is possible there is a [problem with stream getting ahead of the
stream in the servers - if this is the case then it is a bug in the DASH
implementation.  Again Start time won't change this behaviour.
Any messages especially 4xx (e,g. 404 not available , 403 forbidden
etc.) in the log ?

Following comments from BBC streaming engineer saying they see 404's
being sent but I cannot reproduce this issue but I have found a possible
bug.
