Comment (by HoldenForever):

 There have been many attempts to make this work from various people. Check
 out AirStachPlayer hls.c file:
 https://github.com/AirStash/AirStashPlayer/blob/d0013059c63cf0807196c1dd396aa4ba2bbc1663/android/contrib
 /ffmpeg-x86_64/libavformat/hls.c

 I have not made their implementation work as of yet. You can hack around
 the problem by modifying the hls_read_packet function and change the end
 of the function to:

 /* If we got a packet, return it */
     if (minplaylist >= 0) {
         struct playlist *pls = c->playlists[minplaylist];
         *pkt = pls->pkt;
         pkt->stream_index += pls->stream_offset;
         reset_packet(&c->playlists[minplaylist]->pkt);

         if (pkt->dts != AV_NOPTS_VALUE)
             c->cur_timestamp = av_rescale_q(pkt->dts,
 pls->ctx->streams[pls->pkt.stream_index]->time_base,
                                             AV_TIME_BASE_Q);

         pkt->dts = AV_NOPTS_VALUE;
         pkt->pts = AV_NOPTS_VALUE;

         return 0;
     }
     return AVERROR_EOF;


 Just add the 2 lines:

         pkt->dts = AV_NOPTS_VALUE;
         pkt->pts = AV_NOPTS_VALUE;


 This seems to make FFMPEG handle #EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY

 Obviously you will need to compile your own build to make this work.
