How to stream hls v4/v5 encoded to Chromecast?












1















I'm facing an issue to cast my video url to Chromecast



I can't play this video



http://cdnlb.tvplayhome.lt/vod/eds/220830_test1/220830_test1/_/hls_v4/220830_test1.m3u8



but if I switch to hls_v3 or 2 or 1 it is playing



http://cdnlb.tvplayhome.lt/vod/eds/220830_test1/220830_test1/_/hls_v3/220830_test1.m3u8



This is the basic implementation



            let url = URL.init(string: "http://cdnlb.tvplayhome.lt/vod/eds/220830_test1/220830_test1/_/hls_v4/220830_test1.m3u8")
guard let mediaURL = url else {
print("invalid mediaURL")
return
}

let mediaInfoBuilder = GCKMediaInformationBuilder.init(contentURL: mediaURL)
mediaInfoBuilder.streamType = GCKMediaStreamType.none;
mediaInfoBuilder.contentType = "application/x-mpegURL"
mediaInfoBuilder.metadata = metadata
mediaInfoBuilder.mediaTracks = nil
let mediaInformation = mediaInfoBuilder.build()

let rmc = GCKCastContext.sharedInstance().sessionManager.currentCastSession?.remoteMediaClient


let request = rmc?.loadMedia(mediaInformation)
request!.delegate = self


and I'm getting this in the console



cast connected
-[GCKMediaControlChannel didReceiveTextMessage:] - Received unexpected error: Invalid Request.
-[GCKMediaQueue request:didFailWithError:] - error fetching queue item IDs: Error Domain=com.google.cast.GCKError Code=4 "Invalid request" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=Invalid request}

  • May be the problem is in the encoding of the video, but I don't know what it is exactly. We switched to DASH :) I'll leave the question unanswered because I'm not sure what exactly was the problem...
