Packaging Guides (Standalone)

Choose the guide to help you package your media for use with Studio DRM Standalone.

πŸ“˜

If you are using JW Platform for hosting, processing, and delivering of your VOD media, or are using JW’s Broadcast Live, you do not need to package your media. JW Platform will package your media.


Studio DRM Standalone is compatible with any media packaging service that supports the Content Protection Information Exchange Format (CPIX). The Studio DRM CPIX API will return a CPIX document that contains keys and DRM information used for encrypting and protecting video content.

JWP uses Unified Streaming’s packager and origin to serve LIVE and VOD DRM content through the JW Platform.

The following table outlines packagers that have been tried and tested with Studio DRM.
