I have not looked at it yet, due to some disadvantage told me on irc,
sry but I have forgotten those disadvantage of chapters.
if any one here still believe that chapters approach will be better,  I
will look at it.

Though I have done some new implementation, it is out of avcodec folder.
I have tweaked slightly AVFormat public structure.

for details please review attached draft patch.

I would appreciate, if someone pinpoint architecture issue first.
I really get demoralized when I have to throw all my work after
considering all review comments.
then at last some architecture comments.

lots of memory leakage are still there, please ignore it for time being,
i am working on it.

follwing is the command which is also added in commit message to use
this patch
./ffmpeg_g -vsync 0 -copyts -i ~/test_videos/mpegwithscte35.ts
-hls_list_size 1000 -dcodec copy  tmp/some.m3u8
