VeeplayMarlinManager

Veeplay provides support for Marlin DRM, using the SDKs provided by ExpressPlay. To install:

  • Install the ExpressPlay SDK.
  • Add the following line to your Podfile:

      pod "VeeplayMarlinManager"
    
  • If installing without CocoaPods, get the latest static library and header files from the repository.

  • Import the VeeplayMarlinManager header file:

      #import "VeeplayMarlinManager.h"
    
  • Instantiate a Marlin manager object and register it with the player:

      VeeplayMarlinManager *marlinManager = [[VeeplayMarlinManager alloc] init];
      [[APSMediaPlayer sharedInstance] registerUnitManager:marlinManager];
    
  • Set the managerType property of the APSMediaUnit object to @"marlin". If doing this programatically, you can also use the kVeeplayMarlinDRMEncoding constant.

  • Optionally, to have the player download and add a broadband license to the local store, you can set the kAPSMetadataDrmUrl key in the metadata dictionary of an item to the string URL to the license file. To configure from JSON, set the drm_encoding_url metadata key.

Example unit configurations

  • Configuring a unit progamatically:

      APSMediaUnit *unit = [[APSMediaUnit alloc] init];
      unit.url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://url.to/your-protected-media"];
      unit.managerType = kVeeplayMarlinDRMEncoding;
      unit.metadata = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithDictionary: @{ kAPSMetadataDrmUrl: @"http://url.to/marlin-broadband-key" }];
    
  • Configuring a unit from JSON:

      {
              "url": "http://url.to/your-protected-media",
              "manager": "marlin",
              "metadata": {
                      "drm_encoding_url": "http://url.to/marlin-broadband-key"
              }
      }
