If master.m3u8 contains the URI to the encryption key, it is converted to an IPFS link! #22

The file master.m3u8 contains the URI to the encryption key #EXT-X-KEY:METHOD=AES-128,URI="https://hlsbook.net/enc.key",IV=0xecd0d06eaf884d8226c33928e87efa33

Here is the error in the console:

Error: File not found: Qma4qsd4h5PY7YmxHgva1w68FMcPv4c8fBR5LjUwfzZEzq/enc.key
    at getFile (index.js:125)

In a context where a video is encrypted, it does not make sense to include the key in the ipfs directory itself. The URI should remain https and not become ipfs.
