Enumerations
EVENT

playlist. This allows viewers to scrub back to the beginning of the playlist.
LIVE
The playlist is a live stream and there are no restrictions on whether media segments can be
removed from the beginning of the playlist.
UNKNOWN
The value returned if the actual value is not exposed by the requested API version.
