A very good point.

This issue came to light when trying to resolve bug725137. Having done some
more digging, the problem is not that the playlist fails to load, but that the
playlist does not contain media assets.

bug725137 is causing the wrong URL to be generated, and the CDN provider is
returning the master playlist when presented with this wrong URL.

I think this bug still stands however, as it is possible that an incorrectly
configured HLS server might provide a playlist without media assets. This
shouldn't cause a segfault.

I will update the bug description.
