Hi
I have created a low latency HLS stream using this guide:
https://www.wowza.com/docs/deliver-apple-low-latency-hls-live-streams-using-wowza-streaming-engine
It is working on a custom IOS app with low latencies of 2/3 seconds. Great!
It plays from the URL:
https://[hidden]/livelowprotected/demostream.stream/playlist_sfm4s.m3u8
BUT… I now want to encrypt the stream and have tried using this guide:
https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-secure-apple-http-live-streaming-aes-128-external-method
I have created my key file:
/keys/demostream.stream.key
And restarted my application
When i connect the IOS app to the stream… the video plays as before… its not encrypted.
And I notice no requests are made to my HTTP server that delivers my key.
I try to follow this guide to test:
https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-test-aes-encryption-for-apple-hls-streams
The first playlist (playlist_sfm4s.m3u8) is like this:
#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-VERSION:3
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=5542016,CODECS=“avc1.640020”,RESOLUTION=1280x720
chunklist_w849147949_vo_sfm4s.m3u8
Then the chunklist (chunklist_w849147949_vo_sfm4s.m3u8)
is like this:
#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-VERSION:6
#EXT-X-SERVER-CONTROL:CAN-BLOCK-RELOAD=YES,PART-HOLD-BACK=0.90000004,CAN-SKIP-UNTIL=6.0
#EXT-X-INDEPENDENT-SEGMENTS
#EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:1
#EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:804667
#EXT-X-PART-INF:PART-TARGET=0.3
#EXT-X-MAP:URI=“header_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_m3u8.cmfv”
#EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME:2020-06-03T13:50:40.586+00:00
#EXTINF:0.5,

#EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME:2020-06-03T13:50:41.127+00:00
#EXT-X-PART:DURATION=0.3,URI=“media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804668.0_m3u8.cmfv”,INDEPENDENT=YES
#EXT-X-PART:DURATION=0.2,URI=“media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804668.1_m3u8.cmfv”
#EXTINF:0.5,
media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804668_m3u8.cmfv
#EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME:2020-06-03T13:50:41.576+00:00
#EXT-X-PART:DURATION=0.3,URI=“media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804669.0_m3u8.cmfv”,INDEPENDENT=YES
#EXT-X-PART:DURATION=0.2,URI=“media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804669.1_m3u8.cmfv”
#EXTINF:0.5,
media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804669_m3u8.cmfv
#EXT-X-PART:DURATION=0.3,URI=“media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804670.0_m3u8.cmfv”,INDEPENDENT=YES
And when I try to download one of the CMAF files (media_w849147949_vo_sfm4s_804670.0_m3u8.cmfv) I get a 500 error
ie in the access logs:

Can anyone shed any light on this?
Is it possible to encrypt the low latency stream?
Do I have to recompile wowza to start the encryption process or does just putting a keyfile in the keys directory suffice?
Thanks!
James
