code removed by PR #564 need more investigation

[dapharsyde]

Here are some patches that at least get the value of PresentationTimeOffset parsed out of the SegmentTemplate, but I don't know how to incorporate it into the clock timing. I'm hoping it's just a matter of some adding/subtracting some time values but this is all over my head. @matthuisman - can you explain why this was removed in #564 and what it would take to add it back in? Would it break streams from other providers?

I looked again at this problem
i see that this provider send "partials" manifest updates
if you look at subsequent manifests they "lack" of many data like representation tags
this is the cause of following warnings

2023-07-06 01:36:32.228 T:4304  warning <general>: AddOnLog: inputstream.adaptive: adaptive::CDashTree::ParseTagAdaptationSet: Skipped AdaptationSet with id: "4289974598", has no representations.

2023-07-06 01:36:32.228 T:4304  warning <general>: AddOnLog: inputstream.adaptive: No periods in the manifest

atm "partials" manifest updates are not supported on ISA
and so must be implemented from scratch

since you have already provided the manifests will be easier for the future do the implementation
and so presentationTimeOffset should not be a problem

this issue is similar to #1426
