Offline DRM playback is only supported by JWPlayerKit.

<br />

By requiring authorization from a key manager, DRM protects content from unauthorized consumption. However, there are situations when your viewers are offline and cannot immediately request this authorization.

Without instantiating a player, `JWPlayerKit` uses the `JWDRMContentLoader` to enable downloading your DRM-protected content and the required authorization. Later, a viewer can play the protected content offline.

<br />



**Flow Explanation**

  1. The `JWDRMContentLoader` is initialized with a `JWDRMDataSource` and `JWDRMContentKeyManager`. The `JWDRMDataSource` supplies the content keys. The `JWDRMContentKeyManager` stores the content keys.

  2. After the `JWDRMContentLoader` has been initialized, you can pass either a playlist comprised of an array of `JWPlayerItems` or a playlist URL generated through your JWP dashboard.

  3. User initiates playback.

  4. Informed of the acquisition of content keys, the `JWDRMContentKeyManager` permits protected content playback or deletes downloaded content from the device.

    The `JWDRMContentKeyManager` must be implemented outside of the iOS SDK. JWP makes available a default, customizable `JWDRMContentKeyManager` in the <a href="https://github.com/jwplayer/jwplayer-ios-bestPracticeApps" target="_blank">Best Practice Apps repository</a>.

<br />

  1. When the user initiates playback, authorized protected content plays.
