What did you do?

// Hardcoded for demo purposes
const bestMomentTimecode = 55 // Best moment of the video is at 55s
const isAppleShit = false
const videoUrl = 'https://storage.googleapis.com/shaka-demo-assets/bbb-dark-truths-hls/hls.m3u8'

const player = new shaka.Player()

await player.attach(document.getElementById('video'))

player.getNetworkingEngine().registerRequestFilter(function (_type, request) {
  if (isAppleShit) request.allowCrossSiteCredentials = true
  else request.headers.Authorization = 'Some Access Token'
})

player.configure('preferredVideoCodecs', ['vp09', 'avc1'])

if (bestMomentTimecode) {
  try {
    // I know this is not correctly implemented to actually preload the video
    // but preload requests should still be passing the Authorization header which they are not
    await player.preload(videoUrl, bestMomentTimecode)
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Failed to preload', error)
  }
}

await player.load(videoUrl)

What did you expect to happen?

Preload requests should have the Authorization header (just like usual requests).

What actually happened?

Preload requests didn't had the Authorization header.

Are you planning send a PR to fix it?

No, sorry.
