place.stream.playback · 7- place.stream.playback.getLivePlaylist query not from the namespace authority Get an HLS CMAF playlist for a live stream. Returns a master playlist when `track` is omitted, or a single-track media playlist when `track` is supplied. The playlist references each segment + per-track init segment via getLiveSegment. Segments come from an in-memory sliding window fed as the stream is ingested (or replicated to this node), so a playlist is only available while the stream is live here.
- place.stream.playback.getLiveSegment query not from the namespace authority Fetch a single live HLS segment, or a track's init segment, from the in-memory live window. `seg` is `init` for the EXT-X-MAP init segment, otherwise the segment's media-sequence number; a cosmetic `.m4s` suffix is accepted (and ignored) so ffmpeg-based HLS players will fetch it. HTTP Range is honored. Segments are the verbatim signed canonical .m4s, so provenance travels with playback.
- place.stream.playback.getPlaybackServer query not from the namespace authority Get available playback servers for a livestream.
- place.stream.playback.getPlaybackSession query not from the namespace authority Mint the caller's own playback session for their live stream. Every playback URL carries a signed session as `sid`; the anonymous one a playlist hands out opens published streams only, while the owner session this returns also opens the caller's unpublished (pre-live) stream to their own player. Requires an authenticated session; the result is bound to the caller's DID. Pass it as `sid` on getLivePlaylist.
- place.stream.playback.getVideoBlob query not from the namespace authority Fetch a content-addressed MUXL playback blob by CID. Serves either a primary fMP4 archive or a per-track init segment — both are CID-addressed and indistinguishable from the endpoint's point of view. HTTP `Range` headers are honored; HLS media playlists generated by getVideoPlaylist reference this endpoint with `EXT-X-BYTERANGE` to serve segments out of the primary blob. The `did` identifies the owning account for egress accounting: the blob itself is content-addressed and owner-agnostic, so the
- place.stream.playback.getVideoPlaylist query not from the namespace authority Get an HLS CMAF playlist for a video. Returns a master playlist when `track` is omitted, or a single-track media playlist when `track` is supplied. The playlist references each segment + per-track init segment via getVideoBlob, addressed by content hash. The `uri` is an AT-URI pointing at a playable record — today only place.stream.video records are supported, but the surface is collection-agnostic so other record types can join later.
- place.stream.playback.whep procedure not from the namespace authority Play a stream over WebRTC using WHEP.
