DRM Protection editor


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.


  • Profile Selection:

This dropdown contains PROFILE options. The available options are dynamically loaded from the backend, specifically from the profileOptions property in VALUE. A validation check ensures that these values are properly populated. It's important to note that the PROFILE field is not part of the MEDIATYPE (GVP_CONTENT_KEYS) of the DrmProtection component but instead belongs to the MainForm (CDN_LIVES). However, we still need it within DrmProtection for critical backend validations. Therefore, we always keep it updated with the user's selection.

Clicking on the "Choose an Option" select will display two action options: Select Existing and New Generate Key

  • Select Existing: Allows the user to select an existing key.
  • New Generate Key: Enables the creation of a new key.


In each row, we will have two buttons:

  • Remove Button: Use the DeleteRed3.png button to remove key.
  • View Button: By clicking in the Preview.png button in each key, you can preview Contents Protection and PSSH Box Content.
