[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Improved EXT-X-TARGETDURATION generation

[Artem Skoretskiy]

It improves EXT-X-TARGETDURATION when some chunk duration is bigger than requested -hls_time N

In the current implementation, it is ceiling the value (if float part is bigger than 0.001) but it should be rounded. Specification ​https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pantos-http-live-streaming-22#page-49 allows both implementation, but rounding is more precise and better matches user needs (especially having in mind that HLS segmenter could generate slightly longer than requested).
