Interface: shakaExtern.ManifestParser

Parses media manifests and handles manifest updates. Given a URI where the initial manifest is found, a parser will request the manifest, parse it, and return the resulting Manifest object. If the manifest requires updates (e.g. for live media), the parser will use background timers to update the same Manifest object.
