I've looking for practical ways to prevent deep-linking of an HLS stream in a HTML element. I can add a token authorization, where the token expires after a few minutes, but the issue with HLS is that there are sub-playlists that need to be protected to. Someone could easily get the sub-playlist URL and embed that on a different site.
To my knowledge I can't control how the player fetches the sub-playlists or the TS segment chunks.
So does anyone know if this is at all posible, maybe I'm missing something?
