Hashcode Editor
Hashcode Editor block allows you to generate a key for content encryption. This key will be inserted in the manifest file and validate (via the DRM Issuer) if the user has access/permission to watch the selected media.
The 
button generates a new hashcode, which can be used by other cdn lives that points to it. We have to accept the pop alert, to confirm this action.
There are some differences between the keys generated for PlayReady and AES and how to generate the key through Hashcode Editor.
PlayReady DRM
If the DRM Type field is PlayReady, simply click on the 
button to generate a new set of keys and automatically will generate a set of PlayReady keys that can be used for Live OTT signal encryption:
- Playready Key ID - ID for PlayReady Key.
- PlayReady Content Key Base64 - Key created in 64 bits.
- PlayReady Content Key Hexa - Key created in Hexadecimal.
Alternatively, you can click in the 
button. A dialog will be open to select an existing set of keys so you can choose the key you want. Take into account that if you link an existing key to this CDN live, it will be unlinked from the previous CDN live.
AES Encryption
If the Streaming Type field is HLS, simply click on the button to generate a new set of keys and automatically will generate a new AES key that can be used for Live OTT signal encryption:
- HLS Key Seed - The key of Hashcode created.
Alternatively, you can click in the button. A dialog will be open to select an existing set of keys so you can choose the key you want. Take into account that if you link an existing key to this CDN live, it will be unlinked from the previous CDN live.
DASH Encryption
If the Streaming Type field is DASHAVC or DASHHEVC, simply click on the button to generate a new set of keys and automatically will generate a new DASH keyS that can be used for Live OTT signal encryption:
- DASH Key ID - ID for Dash Key.
- DASH Content Key Base64 - Key created in 64 bits.
- DASH Content Key Hexa - Key created in Hexadecimal.
Alternatively, you can click in the button. A dialog will be open to select an existing set of keys so you can choose the key you want. Take into account that if you link an existing key to this CDN live, it will be unlinked from the previous CDN live.
To get data information to setup packager content protection, you can click in the 
. A pop-up message is displayed with this information.
DRM Protection
Allows to set DRM Protection for that Stream. The user can generate a new key or associate with an existing one.
DRM Protection fields are described below:
- Profile - Pick a profile. Each profile will have a set of Track Types. (Example: Default, Sports)
- Name - Name.
- Date - Date.
- Content ID - Content ID.
- Content Key Base64 – Content Key Base64
- Content Key Hexa – Content Key Hexa.
- Track Type - Example: AUDIO, HD, SD.
- Enabled - Enabled.
BPoint Editor
In BPoint Editor you can provide the CDN url configuration for Live OTT playback of this CDN live.
BPoint Editor fields are described below:
- Full Live Stream - URL with full live stream.
- Name - Name of the channel.
- Live Stream - URL to watch the channel.
- URL Parameters - Custom URL parameters.
- CDN Token Secret – CDN Token.
