Unified Packager (Standalone)

Learn how to use the Unified Packager to package your media for Studio DRM.

🚧

The CPIX documents returned by the JW CPIX API are only compatible with USP version 1.10.14 and up.


The Unified Packager works with content protection schemes, such as encryption, DRM, and multiple-key DRM, to create a seamless viewer experience.

πŸ“˜

The Unified Packager can be used in conjunction with the Unified Origin. Both Broadcast Live and the JW Platform make heavy use of this software to deliver DRM video.


The following table provides implementation recommendations based upon use cases.

curl -X GET -H "API-KEY: {api-key}" \
  "https://cpix.vudrm.tech/v1/cpix/{client-name}/{content-id}" \
  > drm.cpix
  1. Package your content.
mp4split --license-key=$USP_LICENSE_KEY -o $ismName \
  --cpix=drm.cpix \
  video.ismv audio.isma



With a CPIX Edge Reverse Proxy Reference

  1. Package your content.
mp4split --license-key=$USP_LICENSE_KEY -o $ismName \
  --cpix="http://local-cpix-proxy/v1/cpix/{client-name}/{content-id}" \
  video.ismv audio.isma
