smooth streaming player - Protecting HLS streams using Playready -

i trying playready protect hls streams using transform manager.

it seems output can played using url "t_200-m3u8-aapl.ism/manifest(format=m3u8-aapl)"

1. i believe standard http server wont able stream wont able interpret /manifest call. kind of server capabalities required?

2. is there way can achieve following workflow: create hls stream using apple segmenter -> playready protect package (which tool?)

azure media services supports protection , streaming of hls playready.

to achieve workflow, have first encode video smooth streaming format, , run through encryptor task here playready settings.

once have encrypted smooth streaming asset, can create second hls playready protected asset passing file through packager task here.

the resulting hls asset encrypted playready, , .m3u8 contain proprietary playready tags use player framework capable of getting license , decrypting content. there several third party drm companies provide such player frameworks. microsoft not provide playready player sdk ios @ time, have go third party drm company.
