Description Zaheer Abbas Merali 2004-07-23 13:47:49 UTC 
oggmux should emit a new ogg header as if its a new file when it gets such a
discontinuity (and maybe reset timestamps if necessary).  I would do it, but I
dont want to screw up oggmux.

I would be a very happy guy if you did this :)
Comment 1 Andy Wingo 2005-07-15 09:45:37 UTC 
Does this mean it would produce a chained ogg? Wouldn't new_media be a better
event? And you should totally get this in HEAD, we'll just lart you if you break
anything ;-)
Comment 2 Zaheer Abbas Merali 2005-07-15 14:01:42 UTC 
The question re: head is what the solution for multiple sequential media use
cases is.

I should write out the use cases somewhere and see what people think the
solutions to them are.
Comment 3 Jan Schmidt 2006-01-20 11:16:16 UTC 
This is still broken in HEAD. Does NEWSEGMENT cover the right use cases that NEWMEDIA used to?
Comment 4 Tim-Philipp Müller 2006-07-18 08:19:33 UTC 
Zaheer, is this still relevant for 0.10 or can it be closed as OBSOLETE?
Comment 5 André Klapper 2006-10-05 19:37:34 UTC 
zaheer: *ping*
Comment 6 Zaheer Abbas Merali 2006-10-06 04:09:27 UTC 
It is still relevant but I have no idea yet how we should handle new media in 0.10.
Comment 7 André Klapper 2008-11-16 17:52:35 UTC 
No news for two years here. Still valid?
Comment 8 David Schleef 2008-11-16 18:04:12 UTC 
Yes
Comment 9 Vincent Penquerc'h 2011-11-03 11:36:00 UTC 
What is "new media discontinuities" in this context ?
Merely "we get a new pad requested", or something more involved ?
Comment 10 Olivier Crête 2018-05-04 11:28:37 UTC 
Anyone cares about ogg? I guess it should just return an error on a discont and one shold put a videorate or similar before to ensure a continuous stream.
Comment 11 Tim-Philipp Müller 2018-05-04 14:57:08 UTC 
Let's close this, special case anyway, we'll pick it up again with a special scenario in mind if someone needs it again
