Trying to download an encrypted HLS stream we faced the following behaviour:
Setting requestCachePolicy
and/or urlCache
properties of URLSessionConfiguration
that used to create the AVAssetDownloadURLSession
seems to have no effect at all.
This is important for as since we need the HTTP caching policy to be applied for the .m3u8 manifest file of the stream.
Is this the intended behaviour of the download process or some kind of an issue?
