Incorrect duration reported when playing an MPEG-DASH Widevine content

[moacir69]

When playing a Widevine MPEG-DASH content in ExoPlayer 2.7.2 demo application, the calculated duration is incorrect. Instead of using the duration in:

<Period duration="PT12M14.250S">

it seems to use the SegmentTimeline of one of the content subtitles:

<AdaptationSet codecs="stpp" contentType="text" group="3" lang="en" maxBandwidth="1000" mimeType="application/mp4" minBandwidth="1000"> <SegmentTemplate initialization="tears-of-steel-dash-widevine-$RepresentationID$.dash" media="tears-of-steel-dash-widevine-$RepresentationID$-$Time$.dash" timescale="1000"> <SegmentTimeline> <S d="60000" r="8" t="0"/> <S d="27000"/> </SegmentTimeline> </SegmentTemplate> <Representation bandwidth="1000" id="textstream_eng=1000"> </Representation> </AdaptationSet>

This way, instead of reporting 12m14s (734 seconds), it is reporting 9m27s (567 seconds) which is:

((60000 x 9) + 27000) / 1000

In order to reproduce the issue, you just need to add a the related content to the demo app samples,
I can provide a sample content url by email.
Can you please investigate this issue?
Please, let me know if any further information is needed.
Kind regards,

Dupe of #4029. Note that content with "short" representations, as is probably the case for your content, is likely to be forbidden by DASH IOP going forward.

Thank you for the quick reply. Will check issue #4029.
