DRM video doesn`t in google cast web receiver (CAF)


I am experiencing a problem when working with CAST web receiver. DRM Video does not start on the TV (Android TV). Preloader works endlessly. How to solve this problem?

The title and description in the player is shown.

The logs show errors:

"shakaErrorCode":6007

LICENSE_REQUEST_FAILED - 6007 - The license request failed. This could be a timeout, a network failure, or a rejection by the server. error.data[0] is a shaka.util.Error from the networking engine. (https://shaka-player-demo.appspot.com/docs/api/shaka.util.Error.html)

"detailedErrorCode":905

LOAD_FAILED - 905 - A load command failed. - Verify the load request is set up properly and the media is able to play. (https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/web_receiver/error_codes?hl=en)

Error 6007 indicates problems with the license server. We checked the request parameters on another player and the DRM video starts. This does not work in cast receiver.

The problem occurs on the physical device
Sender: Redmi Note 8 Pro
Device with chromecast: Android Box
Chromecast built-in: 1.56.276477
CAST SDK CAF Version: 3.0.0103

    const context = cast.framework.CastReceiverContext.getInstance();

const ContentType = {
  DASH: 'application/dash+xml',
  HLS: 'application/x-mpegurl'
};
const mediaFormatID = {
  DASH: 2,
  HLS: 4
};

// Debug Logger
const castDebugLogger = cast.debug.CastDebugLogger.getInstance();
const LOG_TAG = 'MyAPP.LOG';

// Enable debug logger and show a 'DEBUG MODE' overlay at top left corner.
castDebugLogger.setEnabled(true);

      request.media.metadata = metadata;

      resolve(request);
    });
  });

  context.start({playbackConfig: playbackConfig});

Solution

  • There are 3 handlers that are used by the Shaka response filters -

    1. PlaybackConfig#manifestHandler
    2. PlaybackConfig#licenseHandler
    3. PlaybackConfig#segmentHandler

    I added this code and the error was solved:

    playbackConfig.licenseHandler = data => {
     return new Promise((resolve, _reject) => {
        resolve(new Uint8Array(data));
     });
    };
