+        (presentationTimeline.getSegmentAvailabilityEnd() > getPeriodEnd());


I am not certain that this is the best way to compute that we will need to evict references.

So you are right that there are two cases:

We need to add segments. This happens when the period goes beyond the availability window. Your logic for this already looks good to me.

We need to evict segments. This happens when the period is available, but the availability duration is finite. Try this, with the computation done in stages for clarity:

const periodAvailable = availabilityStartTime <= getPeriodEnd(); const availabilityFinite = presentationTimeline.getSegmentAvailabilityDuration() != Infinity; const willNeedToEvictReferences = periodAvailable && availabilityFinite;

The getter getSegmentAvailabilityDuration() will need to be added to PresentationTimeline. There is an internal member for it already called segmentAvailabilityDuration_.

@joeyparrish what do you think about simplifying this to

const willNeedToEvictReferences = presentationTimeline.isLive();

All live streams and only live streams have a segmentAvailabilityStart time that moves forward and therefore have segment references that that need to be evicted.

That is broader, but some false positives should be okay. A live stream can have an infinite availability duration (technically), in which case nothing would ever be evicted. But it may not matter much if we ignore that case here.

This change is needed to make the timer continue firing until the entire period is prior to the segment availability window so that all references will be evicted. Prior to this the timer stopped firing prematurely causing a large number of these error messages

"Assertion failed: Should not see evicted segments after available segments"

Ah, I see! That makes sense. Good catch, and thank you for the fix!

Can you please put your PR comment into a code comment, so that some well-meaning person doesn't some day revert your change to "optimize" something? Something like this would work for me:

I see now that earlier in this thread, you mention that I had verified that you are in the charter-contributors group. But that's not true. I apologize for any miscommunication. I don't have access to that group or its membership, so I have no idea if you are in it or not. Someone in Charter should have access to add you, but I don't know who that is. It appears that I can file a ticket within Google to find out who the group admin is at Charter. Please let me know if I need to do this.

In the meantime, I'll go ahead with review of the PR. I've file a ticket internally to ask if there is a way the CLA bot could provide more useful information to understand why a check fails in cases like yours.

Also, I wonder if this complex work is needed for the bug. From your description, it seems the problem is that we remain updating segment indexes forever. Could you just stop the timer once we get a new Period? We only need to update the segment indexes in the last Period; so you could just have the manifest update stop index updates for non-last Periods and call fit one last time to fit to the updated duration?

I think I agree with the conclusion that we should continue evicting until the period is empty. Otherwise, we end up with some old periods that are empty and some that aren't (based on timing of the timer callbacks WRT the moving availability window). This results in assertion failures, and I suspect, the hanging issues some have been seeing.

The other issue is the updating-forever issue, which is wasteful, but otherwise doesn't seem to break anything AFAICT. This is the issue solved by getting updated period durations throughout the session.

@caridley, have I accurately represented all of that from your point of view?

caridley · 2021-05-21T22:27:47Z

The other issue is the updating-forever issue, which is wasteful, but otherwise doesn't seem to break anything AFAICT.

Forever appending to the segment index for a period that does not initially have a finite duration is in fact the biggest problem. It makes the streaming engine attempt to fetch segments that do not exist at the end of an advertising period. Then for reasons I don't entirely understand, when the stalled player position falls our of the availability window, the player starts fetching and playing segments from the main stream instead of the inserted ad periods. Those segment happen to exist even through they are not used by the manifest during an ad break. Video is being played and you think everything is ok, but the wrong content is being played.

I am guessing that when player tries to recover by seeking forward into the availability window the segment index for the first period of main content has extended itself all the way to the availability end time.

@caridley, may we merge this PR now for a much-needed bugfix release, and follow-up with additional work once you find the cause of the assertion failure? May I offer to help debug in some way?

I have not been able to reproduce that assertion failure this morning, and I am OK with merging this PR.

In fact, I would really like to merge this PR as two distinct commits: one to address the DashParser issues around segment reference generation, and a second to resolve the issues with StreamingEngine and SegmentIterator. I think if we are bisecting or cherry-picking in the future, having these as distinct commits will be useful.

Do you need me to create separate PRs for the two issues? or is this something that is done on your end?

In DASH with SegmentTemplate and a fixed duration, indexes would continue to grow so long as they had not ended. However, this was based on a callback which captured an end time variable that could become out-of-date in a multi-period live stream. This prevents indexes from continuing to grow indefinitely by always using the most up-to-date end time for the period. This also fixes eviction of segments in the same scenario, which fixes SegmentIterator access and related assertions later. Issue #3354 (partial fix) b/186457868 Change-Id: I2b34ee52dd12b59e1c1237258050b50e3189bee3

In multi-period live DASH streams, the SegmentIterator would sometimes get reset to a value pointing to the beginning of the segment references for the period, causing StreamingEngine to re-fetch segments it already had. This fixes SegmentIterator's getIteratorForTime() to return null when a reference can't be found, and fixes StreamingEngine to handle null returns by waiting and checking again.

I don't know what I should have done differently to make GitHub see the PR as merged. It's possible that my two-commit breakdown made that impossible. Sorry! But it is merged, and you are listed as the author of both commits.

Thank you so much for your contributions and your patience. I'm going to start the process of cherry-picking, testing, and releasing v3.1.1, v3.0.12, and v2.5.23 now.

Based on discussion of PR #3419 Backported to v3.0.x Change-Id: I02bfc615a169b54b94cdc624ace77d9ffefd624e

In DASH with SegmentTimeline, we had previously assumed that the timeline would only ever have items added to its end. In practice, some content adds segments to the beginning of the timeline in an update. When this happened, assumptions higher up the stack were broken, and StreamingEngine began streaming from the wrong position, re-fetching segments that were already buffered. It is relatively simple to filter the incoming segment references to ensure that we only ever grow our list from the end. This fixes assumptions in other components and resolves the re-fetching issue for SegmentTimeline-based content. PR #3419 will further address issues with SegmentTemplate+duration.

I don't know what I should have done differently to make GitHub see the PR as merged. It's possible that my two-commit breakdown made that impossible. Sorry! But it is merged, and you are listed as the author of both commits.

Thank you so much for your contributions and your patience. I'm going to start the process of cherry-picking, testing, and releasing v3.1.1, v3.0.12, and v2.5.23 now.

@joeyparrish we have not been seeing these problems with the 2.5.x versions

This particular change didn't apply to v2.5, but I was waiting to release from all three active branches.

@joeyparrish and @caridley Do this fix intended to support "static" or only live? I am seeing this issue with the multi-period static type.

@joeyparrish and @caridley Do this fix intended to support "static" or only live? I am seeing this issue with the multi-period static type.

I think this particular problem was specific to live multi-period streams. We never observed this problem with our static VOD multi-period streams.

joeyparrish · 2021-07-20T17:11:09Z

That's correct. The change only affected live, multi-period DASH.

mlevkov · 2021-07-21T00:02:03Z

@caridley I have this case right now and would be open to sharing whatever (within reason) you need to confirm. @joeyparrish Thank you for letting me know.
