Hls.js support with Fairplay?

[AsifDeveloper]

I find that issue #2356 [https://github.com//issues/2356] is closed in 2019.

@itsjamie does hls.js supports Fairplay now? I have to play the video in the safari browser with FairPlay DRM. Help me out with a solution / ideas.

No. There is still no implementation of FairPlay in hls.js.

A solution would be contributing a pull request containing the implementation of adding support to the EME controller in hls.js to allow setting up using the FairPlay CDM when it was detected as advertised in the HLS manifest.

While waiting for the review process you could use this new controller by replacing the EME controller through the configuration.

See #EXT-X-KEY in the HLS RFC for a starting point on parsing the FairPlay "skd" identifier.

Second, when the content itself was appended to the MediaSource if there is a PSSH box in your initialisation segment advertising encrypted content this may also raise an "encrypted" event.

See #2833 for additional context on next steps.

Closing as duplicate. FairPlay support coming in v1.3.0 with #4930.
