For HLS in particular the master playlist must include either #EXT-X-KEY:METHOD=MARLIN-BBTS or #EXT-X-KEY:METHOD=AES-128 tag otherwise the content will be recognized as clear and the ExpressPlay SDK will exit with error. Playlists need to flag the content protection. The DASH and HLS streaming formats are applicable to Marlin protected content. Consequently, with PDCF there can be one or more content IDs and corresponding content keys, while with DCF, there is a single content ID and content key. In the case of PDCF, each track can be individually encrypted, while with DCF, the entire in-the-clear content is encrypted in bulk. They should be used for downloaded and progressively downloaded content only (note that in the case of progressive download, the application is responsible for the downloading). They are used primarily for encrypted H.264 (AVC) + AAC content.

These formats are based on the ISO Base File Format (14496-12).

These are two formats for protected MP4 content. Here are the most common formats in which Marlin content is provided: Marlin-protected content is simply regular video and/or audio content provided in an encrypted form in a file whose format is based on an extension to a standard media file format. For example, knowledge of the MP4 file format will be necessary if you want to use the mp4edit tool to insert, remove, or replace atoms in an MP4 file. Some tools, such as those for obtaining information from or converting existing files, do not require much prior knowledge. that are referenced by the tools, other than providing a very brief overview below of the main Marlin-protected content formats. This guide assumes you are already familiar with the Marlin and other concepts, content file formats, etc.

Processing MS3 (Marlin Simple Secure Streaming) compound URIs to obtain both the content URL and the Stream Access Statements (SASs) that define usage requirements and provide the decryption key(s).

For example, mp4edit can be used to insert, remove, or replace atoms (a.k.a. For example, the mp4info tool returns detailed information about an MP4-based file, such as whether or not it is encrypted, what the encryption scheme used is, what the overall video/audio length is, and information about the tracks in the file (if any). For example, the Ts2Encrypt tool encrypts and packages an MPEG-2 TS file into a Marlin BBTS file, and the Ts2Decrypt tool performs the opposite operation, decrypting a BBTS file to create an MPEG-2 TS file.

Converting between different file types.

The tools are capable of performing the following tasks: This should be reserved for special use cases when the Apple HLS format is not suitable.Д¬ollectively the ExpressPlay Packaging Tools can support standard MP4 and MPEG-2 TS files, as well as Marlin-protected files, such as DCF and PDCF files that can be created from MP4 files.

ExpressPlay TS Tools (available HERE, documentation is below), for packaging TS media into Marlin BBTS formatted media.

Apple HLS Tools (tools and documentation available at Apple's developer web site) for streaming of TS media.

Bento4 Tools for DASH/Smooth/MP4 (tools and documentation available at for streaming and downloaded MP4 media.

Three groups of command-line tools are part of the ExpressPlay Packaging Tools set, with the first 2 recommended for the majority of use cases: ExpressPlay Packaging Tools are a set of recommended tools which provide you the ability to convert and encrypt audio/video content files into a Marlin-protected format suitable for playback using the ExpressPlay SDK or any Marlin compliant player device.
