Fora Soft Video Engineering Handbook
This spec sheet puts native players, streaming formats, DRM, offline APIs and app-store billing for iOS and Android on one page, plus the cbcs rule that lets one package serve FairPlay and Widevine. We wrote seven volumes covering the whole video stack; start with Volume 3 for players and DRM, then Volume 2 for HLS, DASH and CMAF, with Volume 1 for encoding. Written by Nikolay Sapunov, CEO at Fora Soft.
