botr_KEY_KEY.loadVideo() and Content Signing

7 replies [Last post]

How do I go about using the loadVideo call with my Content Signed BOTR account.

For example; I have video selector control that allows the user to choose what video to queue up in a single player on the page -- a crude channel selector.

I did the proof of concept using my public BOTR account, but now I need to stream the content from my signed account.

I can see how to generate keys easily enough.

But how does one go about combining that with loadVideo?

I'm afraid that the loadVideo call has only been designed for unsigned players. There is no way to make it work with player signing.

How about with just secure video downloads, and player embeds (not secure).

Bump. Anyway to make this work with signed content and unsigned players?

I'm not certain, have you tried it?

If it works, it works, if it doesn't, there is no way to make it so either.

Here's an idea. How about I load all my secure videos into a playlist and embed the secure playlist player and then manipulate using the playlistItem() call.

Question:
Do all of the Javascript API calls work with embedded/signed players (except the loadVideo call).

All of the Javascript API calls found here.

The JavaScript API works normally. LoadVideo only doesn't work for signed embed codes because it loads an unsigned asset, and your account security does not allow that.

So even the LoadVideo call works, the only problem is that on the loaded asset you will get an access denied error.

The playlistItem() call didn't work.

I have a signed playlist/player with signed content. I am in a WP site using the WP plug-in.

The playlist is coming up just fine, and the playlist selector built-into the player works.

I have some selectors below that will call playlistItem(*index*) on an onClick event. It doesn't appear to be triggering specific item in the playlist.
