[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] fix: the "delete-segment" flag did not work properly (implementation in commit 97b65f6). The set length of the list was populated twice (e.g. setting the list-size to 10, creates a list of approx. 20 files). Now calculation works on the theoretical playlist length compensated for the segment lengths that are currently in the playlist.
