Parameters in sub requests

[AlexisBallo2]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I am trying to authorize urls for streaming HLS video. I am able to sign the url for the path, but the signing API returns tokens that I pass as parameters to access the m3u8 files. The issue is that I can successfuly access the first m3u8 directly - using the loadsource url with params, but all subrequests that the hls package makes are made using the base directory and do not include parameters.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would love to see the ability to pass parameters (tokens, etc) to the HLS source so authentication can be made in file requests.

You can implement custom loaders or use xhrSetup to achieve this, otherwise the expectation (and requirement in Safari) is that your server would add these arguments to the playlist urls in your manifest.
