Adaptive streaming with souphtttpsrc

[Aniket Hande]

I have a query about using authorization headers while using souphttpsrc
for video streaming. I'm providing my auth token by using "extra-headers"
property, however it seems to be only using the token for first part where
we download the hls playlist but the later chunks or video stream (ts)
download requests are not using the token which results in "401
Unauthorized"(I maybe wrong here). Is it expected to throw 401 from 2nd GET
request onwards or am I probably doing something wrong here?

Pipeline:
gst-launch-1.0 -vvv souphttpsrc is-live=true ssl-strict=false location=
https://some-server-ip/v1/devices/cam1/live/playlist.m3u8
extra-headers="header,Authorization=\"Bearer\
4fh7eecd-704a-44ba-4758-0bdbd67848ce\"" ! hlsdemux ! tsdemux ! h264parse !
avdec_h264 ! videoconvert ! autovideosink

logs with "http-log-level":
