Currently we have updated to FMS4.5 and doing some evaluation on HDS.

We published our RTMP streams to the livepkgr application and successfully setup and playback HDS.

However, we found that a we can't access some onMetaData Properties during playback.

1. Our player use onMetaData - "videodatarate" and "audiodatarate" properties. We are trying to migrate it to playback HDS, however, we don't seems to be able to get back the two fields, any suggestion?

    Correct answer

    Thanks for the reply.

    So the metadata you are mentioning is the <metadata> tag in the f4m manifest?

    Is there any future plan adding back videobitrate and audiobitrate in the metadata?

    Also, if i have added some custom fields in the onmetadata, will it be accessible from HDS?


    Yes, the metadata is the metadata field you see in f4m file.

    As I mentioned videobitrate is the bitrate of the stream which is already available in the manifest. As per the audiodatarate and custom fields in the metadata, they are implemented but not yet available publicly. I will update you with more information when it is available.

    Thanks.

    Are you not able to access only these properties or all properties. And when you say "we can't access some onMetaData Properties" - I am assuming its for HDS playback and not RTMP playback. Also are you using default manifest.xml or you manifest.xml for HDS has some metadata information?

    I use default manifest.xml and basically following this tutorial "http://help.adobe.com/en_US/flashmediaserver/devguide/WSd391de4d9c7bd609-52e437a812a3725dfa0-8000.html".

    I can't access "videodatarate" and "audiodatarate" with HDS. ( I have setup a control and both parameters exist in RTMP )
