Raise transcoding kill timeout.

[kevincox]

Changes
The Chromecast client only pings every 10 seconds, so having a 10 second timeout will result in spurious killing any time there is slight deviation in the polling. Set to a much safer value so that transcoding will only get killed if there is a serious hang somewhere.

Issues
Fixes: #11640

This timeout appears to have been introduced by @crobibero in #3460.

I believe this is not the problem if your playback does not even start

It isn't the main problem, but it is a problem. The fact is that 10s pings with a 10s timeout isn't going to work reliably.

Except we are not:

On chromecast we are pinging at 5s.

That isn't what I am seeing in the nginx access logs: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/files/15312949/jellyfin.txt

Trying the Unstable channel the pings seem to be usually a bit over 5s, but just copying the last few I did notice a missed one at 11s. Even then a bit more buffer would be good.

• 23:54:07
• 23:54:13 (6s)
• 23:54:18 (5s)
• 23:54:23 (5s)
• 23:54:28 (5s)
• 23:54:39 (11s)
• 23:54:44 (5s)
• 23:54:49 (5s)

Ok, in that trace Sessions/Playing/Progress was hit in the gap which appears to be wired up to the ping endpoint. 5s with 10s timeout still seems too tight for me as one missed request can result in a timeout (What if the request hangs?), but it seems that in good conditions the Unstable Chromecast client shouldn't have issues with this.

I double checked though and the logs from the Stable Chromecast don't have a progress update in the gap, so they are still only going every 10s.

Does Chromecast even use Progressive streams? I don't think so, but not sure.

From the Chromecast Client source code it does, but that pings the server at 5 second interval which should be good enough.
