Mediacache and SMIL

We would like to setup a secure vod project for deskiop and android device.

  1. setup RTMPE only connection, hotlink denial / secure token by using MediaSecurity

  2. setup media cache as our cache server.

  3. adaptive bitrate by using smil.

We have setup the point 1 and 2. it is very good for us. however, now we need a challenge that

we would like to deploy our VOD file with smil , how can we do it with mediacache?

Mainly, I don’t understand how to setup the relationship in the smil file.

rtmpe://mydomain.com/mediacache/contentserveralias/mp4:video_440k.mp4

rtmpe://mydomain.com/mediacache/contentserveralias/mp4:video_840k.mp4

rtmpe://mydomain.com/mediacache/contentserveralias/mp4:video_1500k.mp4

how can I build a smil file which working with the mediacache in this situation?

Put the smil file alongside the content, in the same folder of the content server. Then you will reference the videos exactly the same as described in the vod tutorial

Then you wlll play the smil from the content server:
