streamlink dash base_url BaseURL handling MPD manifest | streamlink streamlink/stream/dash.py base_url rsplit urlp path
Older notes for streamlink__streamlink-6338 can help with context, but they do not fully cover the current failure mode.
Why the common answers are incomplete
DASH base_url calculation in streamlink/stream/dash.py can lose the manifest path when processing BaseURL entries.
Derive base_url from the parsed MPD URL path with rsplit and urlparse/urlunparse before resolving BaseURL values.
The relevant code path includes dash.py, base_url, rsplit, urlp, and path, so the fix should be local to that URL decomposition code.
