I am trying to play back a dash manifest using ffmpeg but I keep running into the issue of ffmpeg ending with the error
[http @ 0x671e580] Stream ends prematurely at 2250, should be 18446744073709551615
The dash manifest is for a livestream. I have tested the live stream in VLC player on Windows and MX player on Android and it plays perfectly fine.  The issue seems to be just with ffmpeg. Has anyone had this issue before or know what the cause may be? I have tried telling ffmpeg to reconnect but it just loops this error.  I have tried two different MPD live streams: * $Time$ based, and * $Number$ based The issue happens only with the Number based live stream.
