[FEATURE] Why does Widevine force a security level of L3? about betterplayer HOT 9 OPEN

@os5633 BetterPlayer doesn't work with Widevine L1/L2 because of textures. BetterPlayer uses VideoPlayer and the way VideoPlayer processes video is using textures in software level.

I need too a player with DRM L1 and I've been working some weeks building my custom plugin using hybrid composition for Widevine L1 support and it works good. Now I'm trying to migrate the cool stuff from Better Player to my plugin or changing textures to Hybrid Composition in VideoPlayer for DRM L1 support. I hope to finish soon but I have no so much time to work with it. If you want to join efforts, it would be great :)

Hi @TDUser91 sure. The Android side is 90% migrated, but using ExoPlayer lastest version (I want to finish it before upgrading to media3, there are some challenges I cannot solve while migrating to media3 due to time reason). Widevine L1 now works like charm.

I'm working in iOS side using Swift, already playing clear content, now I will start go for DRM using FairPlay.

I followed you.

@pastorrmelendez @TDUser91 Have you published any packages related to DRM L1?

from betterplayer.

Thank you for your answer. I have one more question Does the implementation plan also have the ability to import DRM license keys stored on local storage from betterplayer?

from betterplayer.

DRM License keys stored on local storage, no by now, but after published the update, hopefully someone is willing to do the work and submit a PR.

It's not so difficult to do Android native work, but it's an object-c is a big obstaclePlease consider the transition to swift...

I was facing the same issue and I came to the same conclusion, I'm trying to Implement exoplayer (preferebly with media3) using HybridComposition using AndroidViewSurface (Reason: https://source.android.com/docs/core/graphics/architecture and https://medium.com/androiddevelopers/android-hdr-migrating-from-textureview-to-surfaceview-part-1-how-to-migrate-6bfd7f4b970e).

We can work on this together (add me @GitGud31). Let me know!

@pastorrmelendez great thanks, feel free to add me to the project, I'm available to work on the Android part, as from my side I've already made a working version (that I was working on) of Media3 with DRM L1.
