streaming adaptive playlist / protected acces
Hi there
I just recently aquired the premium edition and am trying the following:
several mp4 video are hosted on amazon s3.
those videos are in 720p quality.
I would like to stream them in adaptive mode, thus making them available in several qualities and for different bandwiths.
I added pipleines and elastics transcoding jobs.
I added cloudfront distributions.
1. so How do I embed those playlist files into the jwplayer ?
everytime I try to do it, it tells me the file is not available.
in most tutorials there seems to be a step missing. getting from the CF-distribution to the actual file-link that has to be put into the publishing wizard...
2. I also have to make sure the URLto the playlist is a signed URL, or some other kind of protection mechanism.
I wondered if making the bucket access restricted to the webserver IP would do any good ?
is the P that "reads" the files the one of the webserver or the client accessing the webserver ?
thanks in advance
