EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME in Release 4.4.1

Wowza Streaming Engine

Hi,

I’m testing the latest release. So the new property in HTTPStreamers>Properties called “cupertinoEnableProgramDateTime” would be nice for us. But, if I do it right, it will not work.

Just got my Information from the release notes which said :

Added HTTPStreamer/Properties property to control display of program date and time headers in Apple HLS (cupertino) chunklists for live streams. This property must be true and program date and time set in chunk for the header to display:

cupertinoEnableProgramDateTime: Boolean property to control if EXT-X-PROGRAM-DATE-TIME headers are added to chunklist (default is false)

What I’ve done

                <HTTPStreamer>
                        <Properties>
                                <Property>
                                        <Name>cupertinoEnableProgramDateTime</Name>
                                        <Value>true</Value>
                                </Property>
                              <Property>
                                        <Name>cupertinoUserHTTPHeaders</Name>
                                        <Value>Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *</Value>
                                </Property>
                              <Property>
                                        <Name>mpegdashUserHTTPHeaders</Name>
                                        <Value>Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *</Value>
                                </Property>
                              <Property>
                                        <Name>smoothUserHTTPHeaders</Name>
                                        <Value>Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *</Value>
                                </Property>
                        </Properties>
                </HTTPStreamer>

But a

curl http://10.10.40.22/clemschltest/_definst_/what/a/test.mp4/chunklist_w237516550.m3u8

returns

#EXTM3U

#EXT-X-VERSION:3

#EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE:NO

#EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:12

#EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:17

#EXTINF:11.745,

media_w237516550_17.ts

#EXTINF:5.823,

media_w237516550_18.ts

#EXTINF:11.713,

media_w237516550_19.ts

Are there any further hints? :confused:

Thanks a lot!

Hi Michelle,

thanks for Response! I’ve done it!

It works. I thought it was just a property to set. :slight_smile:

Thanks,

Hi Tom,

You’re most welcome. I’m glad it worked out for you. We do have doc coming in the pipeline that has an example source code and that addresses this requirement. I’ll post it here once it gets published.
