Hi there,

As far as I know, you need to modify your m3u8 files to include the *hash*
and *expire* on every .ts segment. I used to stream HLS using the secure
link module and I remember needing to rewrite the files on-the-fly to make
them include those.

Nginx will not automatically generate a m3u8 file with all the hashes for
you. Unless things changed in the last few years and I'm outdated now, haha.
