Released: 2024-07-17
Added
- Live DVR experience
This release delivers efficient Digital Video Recorder (DVR) window navigation in DIVA player, allowing users to catch up on the beginning of scheduled programs even if joining part-way through.
⚠️What to pay attention to: Settings (heartbeatSeekInterval) - Google PAL SDK adjustment
We've integrated the Google PAL SDK into the DIVA player to track server-side ad events, enhancing our analytics on ad performance and viewer interactions. - Entitlement adjustments
As part of this update, we've made Entitlement API improvements. This means that entitlement checks are now exposed from the containing application via the DIVA API, informing DIVA Player whether users can/can't watch content.
⚠️What to pay attention to: Settings (heartbeatSeekInterval) - AWS Media Tailor Integration plugin
We have integrated AWS MediaTailor with Diva, enabling the player to notify AWS SSAI when an advertisement is consumed. This is achieved by converting AWS SSAI metadata into events that Diva Player forwards to media analytics. - Supported AWS MediaPackage v2, which enforces stricter key rotation policies compared to v1. Ensure backward compatibility.
