  Issue Description

We tried to start a playback of a live stream with a valid IL URN but we became an http unauthorized response from streaming server

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

Start player with a valid live stream urn. This was urn:srf:ais:video:8a306007-4681-4cf9-9a21-2f945fad6173

Complete stacktrace output

No Stacktrace, instead a problem description:
We obtain the .m3u8 and player tries to playback it, but the player must request an token to request the stream for a akamai tokenized stream. So, as the player skips this step, we just become an unauthorized response.

Environment

The issue is most likely, as you explain, that you do not have the "Akamai" token. The AkamaiTokenDataProvider as a media player dataprovider should be used instead of the IlDataProvider directly.

Do you have a link to the repository of this application?

In the mean time, you can have a look at the ssrdemo module in the Android IL Repository https://github.com/SRGSSR/srg-media-player-android-play which uses this data provider.

Currently you can reproduce the problem with your ildemo Android Module: In Class DemoDemoLiveMediaPlayerActivity line 51 you can change the LIST_URL to "http://pastebin.com/raw/9wL5UaaL".

If you run the demo and start VIDEO:LIVE example the exception will be displayed

How can we resolve this bug? Our customer is disappointed about this issue.

[SebastienChauvin]

The paste bin link above seems invalid, can you correct it (or past its content here) ?

[Voto]

OK, here comes the urn: il:urn:srf:ais:video:c49c1d73-2f70-0001-138a-15e0c4ccd3d0

[SebastienChauvin]

In the IL Demo we have two ways to play IL Streams: with the token or without. The way you put your line is without token (il prefix). If you use tokenIl you will activate the AkamaiTokenDataProvider as suggested previously.

Let us know you have further questions

Ok, thanks works for me in the demo. Then we might change the way we load il streams from api. Actually, we cant differentiate between tokenized and normal li streams from backend.

[SebastienChauvin]

Differentiating is not (that) important. On Play SRF we always tokenize URLs as the server does not tell us whether this is required and Akamai does not seem to mind using a token when this is not required.

[Voto]

OK, we discussed if this a possible way to do. Quick but not as intended I guess? Is this token/not token Stream Issue in scope of the next player version? Thanks

[SebastienChauvin]

No, I am not sure the token necessary information is even available at the IL level (the different MAMs do not really know this). It has been working this way for 2 years in Play.
