Maybe you should not change current logic.
You can just add  about process EXT-X-START sence,.
For example:
compute the start_seq_no and save the value to a temp varible and
don't return immediately, check the third scence which get EXT-X-START
tag from playlist.
process the temp varible after start_seq_no compute from
live_start_index or EXT-X-START.

This is unnecessary, because the default -3 is ok and be using by
users from many years ago.
