What is the equivalent of cast.player.api.Player live stream options on CAF receiver?

Question

Right now using the cast reference player I pass Infinity as the second parameter on cast.player.api.Player.load() when I want to play live content. How can I accomplish that with the CAF receiver?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Try this:

playerManager.setMessageInterceptor(
    cast.framework.messages.MessageType.LOAD, function (loadRequestData) {
    loadRequestData.currentTime = Infinity;
    return loadRequestData;
    }
);

You should use chrome.cast.media.StreamType.LIVE as the media type in the load request.
