I'd like to know when PlayReady Indirect Licensing vending will be supported. I have Smooth Streaming content which does contain the ProtectHeader but the LA_URL needs to be overridden and some custom data sent to the license vending service. The License Service does render a valid license but it's wrapped in JSON so needs to be parsed before used for playback. Can this use case be implemented on the current SDK?
From the documentation:
"Only direct PlayReady licensing is supported. Indirect licensing is currently unsupported. That is, for decryption to work, the ProtectionHeader must be available in the manifest and the LA_URL should contain a valid URL to an accessible PlayReady license server."
The documentation on the Developer Guide, section 9 actually is misleading, mentions only HLS -
We are limited in the types of video content supported on the device. We currently support .mp4, .mov, and .m4v files with H.264/AAC encoding as well as unencrypted WMV and HTTP Live Streaming.
We only support .wma and .mp3 audio files in the audio player.
And lastly - any plans to support MPEG-DASH?
