[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 1/1] libavformat/hls: Reset options after open_url_keepalive() fails

[lists at edman007.com]

From: Ed Martin <edman007 at edman007.com>

open_url_keepalive() unsets the options when it uses them, this
includes the offsets for the Range: header. When using the HLS
tag #EXT-X-BYTERANGE along with multiple files, the range options
must be preserved after open_url_keepalive() returns EOF so that
the new file can be opened. Failure to do this results in ignoring
the #EXT-X-BYTERANGE tag and reading the wrong bytes of the file.

To fix it, reset the options before calling io_open() following
open_url_keepalive() reaching EOF
