Milestone
Shaka creates incorrect segment url leading usually to 404 errors. This is MSIE 11 known nasty bug that won't be fixed by M$.
When you use:
new MutationObserver(function() {}).observe(document.body, {childList: true, subtree: true});
The DOMParser breaks after that. It generates multiple text nodes around each hypen, but Shaka counts only with one inside element.
Related Shaka code:
Workaround is to use elem.textContent instead of contents.nodeValue. I'll prepare pull request.
