Fix video not advancing + media not downloading on same-version startup

BUG-009: _on_video_eos was empty (stub). Added Clock.schedule_once
for next_media() when video reaches end of stream.

BUG-008: download_media_files only ran when server_version >
local_version. Added download check in up-to-date branch so media
files are synced even when playlist version hasn't changed.
