--- Comment #5 from Philippe Normand <phil at base-art.net> ---
I've been experimenting with this approach:

- source element handles a "http" context query performed by uridownloader and
adaptivedemux
- the context is set on adaptivedemux
- the context somehow stores the cookies. For now I'm reusing the GstCookieJar
from bug 731170
- when downloading fragments adaptivedemux fetches the cookies from the context
and set them on the source element if it has a cookies property

We could store more informations inside the context, like HTTP referer,
user-agent, custom headers, I suppose.

With this approach I have here WebKit fetching the main playlist with the
webkitwebsrc element, and uridownloader/adaptivedemux downloading
fragments/manifests with cookies in http requests managed by souphttpsrc :)
