Do you support DRM content on Chrome? #1428

Closed matenadasdi closed 6 years ago

matenadasdi commented 6 years ago

I was wondering about hls.js + DRM for multi-browser usage. Since hls.js is transmuxing chunks I guess using DRM won't work in Chrome where mp4 is needed. Is there a solution for this usecase?

Could you please confirm my hunch? As far as I understand hls.js correctly if the TS chunk is encrypted with DRM, it won't be able to transmux it to mp4 on the client side. Am I right?

hls.js is also supporting HLS with fmp4 fragments. with which you could potentially use common encryption.

there is some work remaining so that hls.js can expose the key signalled in the manifest and invoke EME API to decrypt the content.
