I have multiple m3u8 files which I want to play one after another in the same video player. Is there a way to include all of them in one m3u8 file? For example, let's say that I have these files: zebra.m3u8, giraffe.m3u8 and lion.m3u8, how can I play all of them one after another in the same player?

I was thinking about an m3u8 file which will work like this:

zebra.m3u8 -> master playlist -> media playlist
giraffe.m3u8 ...

Some kind of file which will contain the manifests' urls for the m3u8 clips.

Edit: An idea which came to mind was to list the .ts urls of all clips in the correct order and create sort of a merged m3u8 playlist but it doesn't work, any ideas?
