In DASH each of the segment is numbered (it is related to UTC)  and it
is up to the plugin to figure out the URL with the coirrect segment
number - LMS will not know.   Up to know the plugin left LMS to deal
with pause/stop etc functionality (which can get messy as I have a jump
back / forward facility so the segment number relating to the time when
pause was pressed can be offset by the jump time value)  and so I have
no idea what LMS decides as I think LMS mau change pauss to stops under
some circumstacnes.  All this is speculation which is why it needs lots
of time to  fix.

HLS is different  and pause may or may not work but if it doesn't it
will be harder to make it work and if I fix DASH I'll have to fix HLS as
otherwise users complain.
