Hello, I'm trying to create HLS output with segment time of 6 seconds, but sync samples (fragments) every 1 second. I want to have AVAssetWriter write a sync sample / moof header every second. Am I correct in understanding that I could only achieve this with a pre-fragmented MP4 and use a passthrough rendition with setting preferredOutputSegmentInterval to indefinite and running flushSegment() as needed? Or is there another method using AVFoundation? Thanks in advance.

Hello, Is there an example from Apple on how to extract the data to create an Iframe playlist using the AVAssetSegmentTrackReport? I'm following the example of HLS authoring from WWDC 2020 - Author fragmented MPEG-4 content with AVAssetWriter It states: "You can create the playlist and the I-frame playlist based on the information AVAssetSegmentReport provides." I've examined the AVAssetSegmentTrackReport and it only appears to provide the firstVideoSampleInformation, which is good for the first frame, but the content I'm creating contains an I-Frame every second within 6 second segments. I've tried parsing the data object from the assetWriter delegate function's didOutputSegmentData parameter, but only getting so far parsing the NALUs - the length prefixes seem to go wrong when I hit the first NALU type 8 (PPS) in the first segment. Alternatively, I could parse out the output from ffmpeg, but hoping there's a solution within Swift. Many thanks

Hello, I'm having an issue where my app is in TestFlight, and some of my testers are reporting that FairPlay protected videos are not playing back in iOS 17. It's been working fine in iOS 16 (my app's initial target). I can see from the debug logs that for an online stream request - contentKeySession(_ session: AVContentKeySession, didProvide keyRequest: AVContentKeyRequest) is never called. Whereas, a download for offline playback request, the function is called. I've used much of the sample code in "HLS Catalog With FPS" as part of the FPS developer package. All of my m3u8 files are version 5 and contain encryption instructions like below: #EXT-X-KEY:METHOD=SAMPLE-AES,URI="skd://some-uuid",KEYFORMAT="com.apple.streamingkeydelivery",KEYFORMATVERSIONS="1" Here's a short excerpt of the code being run: let values = HTTPCookie.requestHeaderFields(with: cookies) let cookieOptions = ["AVURLAssetHTTPHeaderFieldsKey": values] assetUrl = "del\(assetUrl)" clip!.assetUrl = AVURLAsset(url: URL(string: assetUrl)!, options: cookieOptions) clip!.assetUrl!.resourceLoader.setDelegate(self, queue: DispatchQueue.global(qos: .default)) ContentKeyManager.shared.contentKeySession.addContentKeyRecipient(clip!.assetUrl!) urlAssetObserver = self.observe(\.isPlayable, options: [.new, .initial]) { [weak self] (assetUrl, _) in guard let strongSelf = self else { return } strongSelf.playerItem = AVPlayerItem(asset: (self!.clip!.assetUrl)!) strongSelf.player.replaceCurrentItem(with: strongSelf.playerItem) } The error thrown is: Task .<8> finished with error [18,446,744,073,709,550,614] Error Domain=NSURLErrorDomain Code=-1002 "unsupported URL" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=unsupported URL, NSErrorFailingURLStringKey=skd://some-uuid, NSErrorFailingURLKey=skd://some-uuid, _NSURLErrorRelatedURLSessionTaskErrorKey=( "LocalDataTask .<8>" ), _NSURLErrorFailingURLSessionTaskErrorKey=LocalDataTask .<8>, NSUnderlyingError=0x2839a7450 {Error Domain=kCFErrorDomainCFNetwork Code=-1002 "(null)"}} Which I believe is being thrown from AVPlayerItem. Without the delegate, it appears to playback fine. However, I need the delegate (I think), since I'm appending some query params to each request for the segments. I have an observer on the playerItem, per the example project which is changing the status to .failed once he -1002 error is thrown. Please let me know if anything rings to mind to try, or if I can provide any additional info. Thanks in advance!
