nDVR still working on v4.5?

Wowza Streaming Engine

Hi

Can anyone confirm or deny if nDVR still works on v4.5? It’s a straightforward setup but I can’t seem to make the Playlist delegate work. By that, I mean it just plays from the current time (live), regardless if start time and/or duration are provided, through default variables or custom ones. It does show It always starts from the current.

Tested with OSMF as we’re still unsure if playlist.m3u8 has started working through Jwplayer (iOS bug) or not. The main objective it to play delayed stream via m3u8.

The logs do show:

DvrStartDurationPlaylistRequestDelegateLegacy : Resolved Playlist: {DvrPlaylistRequest: [live] timeScale:DVR_TIME playlistStart:7677571, playlistEnd:ignored}

DvrStartDurationPlaylistRequestDelegateLegacy : Available Playlist: {DvrPlaylistRequest: [live] timeScale:DVR_TIME playlistStart:7677571, playlistEnd:ignored}

DvrStartDurationPlaylistRequestDelegateLegacy : Request: wowzadvrplayliststart:null wowzadvrplaylistduration:null

(Yes I switched to the Legacy version for troubleshooting).

It should have been a simple, less than an hour setup but has consumed most of the last two days and nights. So any directions are welcome with thanks.

Thanks

Hi,

DVR certainly does work with 4.5. It looks like you created a similar thread here, which I have replied to.

If the issue persists, then please consider opening a support ticket (include a zip of your /conf and /logs plus links to any test streams etc) and we can take a closer look.

Regards,

Paul

Hi,

What do I need to enable to see:

DvrStartDurationPlaylistRequestDelegateLegacy

in the log?

I have:

dvrPlaylistRequestDelegatecom.wowza.wms.dvr.impl.DvrStartDurationPlaylistRequestDelegateLegacy

in my Application.xml file
