1752207 - Add VIDEO_DROPPED_FRAMES_PROPORTION_EXPONENTIAL.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Audio/Video: Playback, task, P2)

Description

[Jeff Muizelaar [:jrmuizel]]

Currently the value of VIDEO_DROPPED_FRAMES_PROPORTION is mostly
0 or 1. This gathers the same data but does so with higher precision.

It also changes the distribution from linear to expontential as it feels
like that better represents the distribution of the underlying data.
