We are not sure what characters are allowed in chapter titles.
Emoji seem to be disallowed. It is unknown whether things like accents or smart quotes are allowed.
To be conservative, we warn if there are any non-ascii characters in the chapter title.
This happens when we are live viewing a stream, and the last available segment
is at the end of an hour.
We generate the end timestamp as being the end of the last available hour,
which might be within the range of the last available segment. When this happens
we stream the last segment then say we reached the requested end point.
This makes the player stop asking for more segments.
The fix is to pad the end time by an extra hour so we're asking for 1 hour more than the
last available hour.
Flask sends a chunked response with one chunk per item yielded.
This adds a lot of overhead per yielded item.
We avoid this by collecting the lines of the media playlist into larger chunks
and only flushing once every 1000 segments.
For small playlists this means they'll be emitted as one chunk,
but for large playlists we still get the streaming behaviour.
Sometimes in the wild (particularly on youtube) segments may not be timed perfectly, so allow up to 10ms of gap or overlap
to be counted as "equal" for purposes of finding the best segment.

This should hopefully result in frames on the edge of timestamps being extracted
from a combination of the neighboring segment and the naive one,
so that we don't get errors extracting a frame.
