ffplay seems to grab wrong time, resulting in 404ing the segment fragments

Real time example, ffplay tries to play, which fails

https://live001.cda.pl/enc111/kapitanbomba/vs_1080_1668835006_2995380000.mp4

at the same time browser gets, which works just fine

https://live001.cda.pl/enc111/kapitanbomba/vs_1080_1668835006_2992140000.mp4


Other application handles that case just fine, so I think its something that ffplay has to improve.

Through a proxy i've determined the difference between what works (other unnamed app and browsers) and doesn't (ffplay,ffmpeg,ffprobe) is constant value of "-720000". Meaning the ffplay tries to grab a segment that does not exist yet.
I've been modifying the suggestedPresentationDelay and the segment difference was still -720000. This leads me to conclusion the bug within ffmpeg/ffplay/ffprobe (all are affected) ignores MPD values instead of adjusting segments to it. My solution proposals are: find and fix the bug or allow user to specify the segment offset with additional argument.

Sadly, 4 weeks in and no traction or whatsoever, latest nightly build still has the bug.

found decent file-less bug workaround for the time being, it should work for you too. It uses streamlink to grab segments and pipe them to ffmpeg. If stream is not DRM free you need to use forked version that adds DRM support. If you want to use it like ffplay then pipe it to ffplay or player of your choosing instead.

streamlink https://live002.cda.pl/enc117/2x2hd/2x2hd.mpd \
    best \
        --stream-segment-attempts 9999 \
        --ffmpeg-dkey "<REDACTED>" \
        -O|ffmpeg -nostdin -v fatal -hide_banner -nostats -re -i pipe:0 -c:v copy -c:a copy -f flv output"

This being said I consider it only workaround and still will wait for proper ffmpeg bugfix.

Thanks! This is helpful!
