Unable to create encrypted mp4 download using Azure Media Services

140 views Asked by At

I've gone through the steps of uploading an asset, encoding it, and applying encryption settings.

For right now I am doing minimal testing and want to avoid the streaming fees, so progressive mp4 is fine- however it appears when I link to the mp4 via progressive download, the encryption is skipped and it is the original, unencrypted asset which gets downloaded.

Is there a way to download the mp4 with CENC or Fairplay or Clearkey applied?

Here's a screenshots of the configuration screen (redacted since I'm specifically asking about a misconfiguration on security, and not sure what details are important here):

You cannot progressive download encrypted MP4 files. Mp4 files doesn't have binding for CENC or FairPlay. You need streaming protocols such as DASH, Smooth Streaming or HLS.
