/**
 * Returns whether or not the loader should wait for a timeline change from the timeline

 *
 * Primary timing in VHS goes by video. This is different from most media players, as
 * audio is more often used as the primary timing source. For the foreseeable future, VHS
 * will continue to use video as the primary timing source, due to the current logic and
 * expectations built around it.

 * Since the timing follows video, in order to maintain sync, the video loader is
 * responsible for setting both audio and video source buffer timestamp offsets.
 *
 * Setting different values for audio and video source buffers could lead to
 * desyncing. The following examples demonstrate some of the situations where this
 * distinction is important. Note that all of these cases involve demuxed content. When
 * content is muxed, the audio and video are packaged together, therefore syncing
 * separate media playlists is not an issue.
 *
 * CASE 1: Audio prepares to load a new timeline before video:
 *
 * Timeline:       0                 1
 * Audio Segments: 0 1 2 3 4 5 DISCO 6 7 8 9
 * Audio Loader:                     ^
 * Video Segments: 0 1 2 3 4 5 DISCO 6 7 8 9
 * Video Loader              ^
 *
 * In the above example, the audio loader is preparing to load the 6th segment, the first
 * after a discontinuity, while the video loader is still loading the 5th segment, before
 * the discontinuity.
 *
 * If the audio loader goes ahead and loads and appends the 6th segment before the video
 * loader crosses the discontinuity, then when appended, the 6th audio segment will use
 * the timestamp offset from timeline 0. This will likely lead to desyncing. In addition,
 * the audio loader must provide the audioAppendStart value to trim the content in the
 * transmuxer, and that value relies on the audio timestamp offset. Since the audio
 * timestamp offset is set by the video (main) loader, the audio loader shouldn't load the
 * segment until that value is provided.
 *
 * CASE 2: Video prepares to load a new timeline before audio:
 *
 * Timeline:       0                 1
 * Audio Segments: 0 1 2 3 4 5 DISCO 6 7 8 9
 * Audio Loader:             ^
 * Video Segments: 0 1 2 3 4 5 DISCO 6 7 8 9
 * Video Loader                      ^
 *
 * In the above example, the video loader is preparing to load the 6th segment, the first
 * after a discontinuity, while the audio loader is still loading the 5th segment, before
 * the discontinuity.
 *
 * If the video loader goes ahead and loads and appends the 6th segment, then once the
 * segment is loaded and processed, both the video and audio timestamp offsets will be
 * set, since video is used as the primary timing source. This is to ensure content lines
 * up appropriately, as any modifications to the video timing are reflected by audio when
 * the video loader sets the audio and video timestamp offsets to the same value. However,
 * setting the timestamp offset for audio before audio has had a chance to change
 * timelines will likely lead to desyncing, as the audio loader will append segment 5 with
 * a timestamp intended to apply to segments from timeline 1 rather than timeline 0.
 *
 * CASE 3: When seeking, audio prepares to load a new timeline before video
 *
 * Timeline:       0                 1
 * Audio Segments: 0 1 2 3 4 5 DISCO 6 7 8 9
 * Audio Loader:           ^
 * Video Segments: 0 1 2 3 4 5 DISCO 6 7 8 9
 * Video Loader            ^
 *
 * In the above example, both audio and video loaders are loading segments from timeline
 * 0, but imagine that the seek originated from timeline 1.
 *
 * When seeking to a new timeline, the timestamp offset will be set based on the expected
 * segment start of the loaded video segment. In order to maintain sync, the audio loader
 * must wait for the video loader to load its segment and update both the audio and video
 * timestamp offsets before it may load and append its own segment. This is the case
 * whether the seek results in a mismatched segment request (e.g., the audio loader
 * chooses to load segment 3 and the video loader chooses to load segment 4) or the
 * loaders choose to load the same segment index from each playlist, as the segments may
 * not be aligned perfectly, even for matching segment indexes.

      //    arbitrary mapping. If audio and video streams are not perfectly in-sync, then
      //    the mapping will be off for one of the streams, dependent on which one was
      //    first saved (see (1)).
