[Bug 753879] adaptivedemux: doesn't answer queries for live streams

[GStreamer (GNOME Bugzilla)]

--- Comment #6 from Thiago Sousa Santos <thiagossantos at gmail.com> ---
adaptivedemux is not public API so we can change as much as we need. So far we
have no plans on extending it to new formats, I'm only aware of HDS from Adobe
but the spec is a bit vague and I don't think it is adopted much.

So far I haven't seen any of the 3 allow knowing the duration of a live stream
so I'm more in favor of the simpler approach of handling it in the base class
and removing live checks for subclasses, might want to leave a g_return_if_fail
for catching programing errors in the future.

If someone ever implements knowing durations of live streams (live
transmissions with predefined ending time?) we can change this again, no
problem.
