Flussonic Media Server 21.10

Мы выпустили Flussonic Media Server 21.10.

Авторизационный бекенд теперь может передавать конфигурацию стрима в разных контекстах авторизации. On_publish – при авторизации сессий публикации (дает возможность кастомно реконфигурировать стримы: включить транскодер, DVR, рестриминг в соц.сети и др.); on_play дает возможность менять конфигурации стрима в контексте сессий проигрывания.

Внедрен новый механизм для врезки рекламы, который позволяет врезать рекламу путем замены сегментов потока в play сессии, что значительно затрудняет работу таких плагинов как AdBlock. Доступно для HLS и DASH (как для мультипериодных манифестов, так и для манифестов с одним периодом).

Реализован новый дизайн API со спецификацией в формате Open API 3.0.
