<div id="demoplayer"></div>
<script>
  var player = new Clappr.Player({
    source: "YOUR_PLAYLIST_URL", 
    parentId: "#demoplayer",
    plugins: { 
      playback: [HlsDnaPlugin]
    },
    dnaConfig: {},
    hlsjsConfig: {},
  });
</script>

 

Parameter name Mandatory Description
dnaConfig No

The object in which you can pass Streamroot options (property, contentIdGenerator, id, etc.).
hlsjsConfig No

The object in which you can change hls.js options. More information can be found hereunder.
HlsDnaPlugin Yes The name of the Streamroot playback plugin.
YOUR_PLAYLIST_URL Yes Your HLS playlist.

 

Step 3: Visualize Streamroot

In order to verify if Streamroot was correctly configured, please install our DNA Graphs.

 

Recommended hls.js options

hls.js has a wide variety of configuration parameters that can be instantiated in hlsjsConfig object for fine-tuning. You can learn more about them in their API Documentation.

To get the best performances with live contents, we recommend setting the following values:

hlsjsConfig: {
   "maxBufferSize": 0,
   "maxBufferLength": 30,
   "liveSyncDuration": 30,
   "liveMaxLatencyDuration": Infinity
}

Otherwise, liveSyncDuration and liveMaxLatencyDuration are not needed for VoD streams.
