Live HLS Stream through CDN Filename Issue KeyCDN

We’re using KeyCDN to distribute both VOD and Live Stream content with, the VOD content is fine however they’re saying there’s an issue with the Live Stream Content or in this case a Scheduled Playlist of video content which does occasionally also interject true live content. So the CDN has to consistently cache the content. But the issue I guess is the file for HLS playback is generating a different file for each chunk of video content and the CDN can’t handle that and I need to change the Wowza config so it doesn’t.

Basically the URL is :1936/APP/stream/playlist.m3u8 so that file is generating different I guess chunks of the video playback

It is the .ts file that supposedly is different names each time. The stream is also an adaptive bitrate by Wowza
