I am sorry, but won't this simply copy the metadata to the resulting mgets 
segments - but if the stream metadata is not updated following the initial 
copy, wouldn't that be the same (initial) metadata, and not the updated one as 
it comes in on the input stream?

Thanks!

Christo

You can use hls_ts_options to set the mpegts metadata.
