Support for basic vs extended format ?

Open spiff-radio opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, I saw that a m3u8 file can be "basic" or "extended".

eg. A basic line for a track would be

#EXTINF:240,Artist - Title

While extended would be

#EXTINF:240,a=Artist,t=Title

Could your parser support this ?

By the way, I noticed title is not returned at all ? Related to https://github.com/videojs/m3u8-parser/pull/158 ?

I'm not seeing anything related to this extended support in the HLS specification: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-pantos-hls-rfc8216bis#section-4.4.4.1
