I have tried VOD singel server and Http origin, with

external method - [https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-secure-apple-http-live-streaming-aes-128-external-method](https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-secure-apple-http-live-streaming-aes-128-external-method)

But it doesn’t seem to work.

It just serves without any encryption.

How to enable it ?

Now it is working for VOD single server but not for the Http Origin.

Hello,

Thanks for contacting Wowza Forums!

Thanks for the information and follow up. To get it to work for VOD single server, did you do anything to get it to work?

regards,

Jermaine
