Play DRM-protected content

Learn how to play DRM-encrypted videos in the FastPix iOS Player using Apple FairPlay.

The FastPix iOS Player supports DRM-encrypted playback through FairPlay. To enable DRM, you need to provide a playback token, a DRM license URL, and a FairPlay application certificate URL.

For a complete guide on setting up DRM, see Secure playback with DRM.

Play a DRM-protected video

Construct the license and certificate URLs using your playback ID and token, then pass them as DRMOptions:

1
if let token = self.playbackToken {
2
    let licenseURL = URL(string: "https://api.fastpix.com/v1/on-demand/drm/license/fairplay/\(self.playbackID)?token=\(token)")!
3
    let certificateURL = URL(string: "https://api.fastpix.com/v1/on-demand/drm/cert/fairplay/\(self.playbackID)?token=\(token)")!

5
    playerViewController.prepare(
6
        playbackID: playbackID,
7
        playbackOptions: PlaybackOptions(
8
            playbackToken: token,
9
            drmOptions: DRMOptions(
10
                licenseURL: licenseURL,
11
                certificateURL: certificateURL
12
            )
13
        )
14
    )
15
}

Required parameters

• playbackToken: A valid JWT token that authorizes playback.
• licenseURL: The URL for the FairPlay DRM license server.
• certificateURL: The URL for the FairPlay application certificate.

Note: Spritesheet-based seek preview thumbnails are fully supported for DRM-protected content. The SDK handles secure fetching and rendering of spritesheet assets without exposing protected URLs.
