place.stream.playback.getVideoPlaylist

did:web:stream.place

Documentation

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.

Parameters

end integer Optional

End time in milliseconds. Omit to include all remaining content. Local to the clip's timeline when playing back a sourceClip record.

sid string Optional

Opaque playback session identifier. Omit on the master playlist request; the server generates one and embeds it in every sub-playlist URL it returns. Players never have to construct it themselves — they just follow the URLs the master playlist hands them, which carry the sid into media-playlist + segment requests. Used downstream to correlate a player's playlist + segment fetches for view-count accounting.

start integer Optional

Start time in milliseconds from the beginning of the video. Defaults to 0. For a place.stream.video record whose source is a place.stream.media.defs#sourceClip, this is in the clip's local timeline (0 == the clip's start).

track string Optional

Track ID (stringified u32 matching the MUXL container) for a single-track media playlist. Omit for the master playlist.

uri string at-uri Required

AT-URI of the record to play back (e.g. at://did:plc:.../place.stream.video/<rkey>).

Output

Encoding*/*

Errors

VideoNotFound No record indexed at the supplied AT-URI.
TrackNotFound The requested track ID is not present in the video's blob.
BlobNotFound The record references a blob this node hasn't indexed an origin for.
UnsupportedCollection The AT-URI points at a collection this endpoint doesn't know how to play back.
