 Summary of the bug:

 This is relevant when using segment option in ffmpeg
 I cannot see such option
 For vlc, there is an option
 ,index-url=http://37.188.125.31/demo/medium-########.ts}
 which specifies in what format the filenames are saved inside the m3u8.

 I am sorry if I missed it.

Comment:

 I believe this should be fixed in:
 {{{
 commit 5e278c19c752d65fdc1da1ceb599b091f71a4b4b

     lavf/segment: add segment_list_entry_prefix option

     This option allows to add a prefix to the segment list entry
 filenames.

     Also set by default the list entry filenames to the corresponding
     segment basename, consistent with the HLS muxer.

     Based on an idea by Steven Liu <lingjiujianke at gmail.com>.
 }}}

 The new option allows to set the prefix to use for the playlist file.
