Description

I opened AbemaTV in the following commands, and video always stuck when the channel gets into advertisements.

streamlink --loglevel debug --player "D:\Program Files\mpv64\mpv.exe" --http-proxy http://127.0.0.1:1080 --https-proxy http://127.0.0.1:1080 https://abema.tv/now-on-air/abema-news best

Reproduction steps / Explicit stream URLs to test

AbemaTV news channel ads are more than others, it's easy to reproduction.

Sorry for late response.
Since i mentioned in #1949 . Because of ext-x-discontinuity issue, players may not handle live stream discontinuity properly.

If there is a common pattern to the ad segment names you might be able to ignore them with --hls-segment-ignore-names, or it could be extended to support your use case.
The discontinuous segments could be ignored, but there is a discontinuity between content -> avert and avert -> content, so if the stream starts in an ad you'd end up skipping the content and only playing the ads :D
