When the publisher or source of a stream is offline, the server can be
configured to fill gaps in the stream with a video that is played on
repeat until a publisher comes back online. This allows readers to stay
connected regardless of the state of the stream. The offline video and
any future online stream are concatenated without decoding or
re-encoding packets, using the original codec.
When the absolute timestamp of incoming frames was not available, it
was filled with the current timestamp, which is influenced by latency
over time.
This mechanism is replaced by an algorithm that detects when latency is
the lowest, stores the current timestamp and uses it as reference
throughout the rest of the stream.
