[2.8.0] DataView: expected ArrayBuffer, got Uint8Array

[boris-petrov]

This is a regression from 2.7.0:

at new DataView (<anonymous>)                                                                                                                     
at Function.getPSSHData (...)         
at Object.onKeyMessage (...)

I don't have exact lines, I could get them if needed. The error under Firefox is the one in the title, under Chrome is TypeError: First argument to DataView constructor must be an ArrayBuffer.

In this issue there is more information about our usecase (we use Clearkey encryption e.g.) - it hasn't changed since then.

Please tell me if you need more information.

Hi @boris-petrov ,

I 'd like to help you but I can't reproduce the issue with streams in dash.js reference page. Is it possible that you give us acces to one of your stream?

@nicosang - thanks for the answer! Can you try with the ones I've attached in this comment in the other thread that I linked please? They are the same as the ones we use (they are autogenerated with ffmpeg for test purposes).

[nicosang]

@boris-petrov , could you, please, also share dash.js log messages? I don't have the same behavior that the one you described...

Thanks,

[nicosang]

one more question for you @boris-petrov : do you use the call to setProtectionData function?

[boris-petrov]

@nicosang - no, we don't use that particular function. We do exactly what I've written in this comment from the other thread. As for the log messages - I'll do that most likely on Monday. Thanks for the support!

@nicosang - here are the logs:

Error: [130][ProtectionKeyController] Failed to retrieve clearkeys from ProtectionData

Actually, now that I see, there is another error before the one I've specified in this issue thread - Failed to retrieve clearkeys from ProtectionData. Any ideas why that might be and what may have changed between 2.7.0 and 2.8.0?

[davemevans]

Looks to me like that is caused by the debug.warn call in KeySystemW3CClearKey.getClearKeysFromProtectionData - there's no warn method on debug - a getLogger or similar is needed I imagine.

Would be useful if the catch in processClearKeyLicenseRequest logged the message from the exception.

[boris-petrov]

So I am to understand that this indeed is a bug, right? Not some wrongdoing on my side?

[nicosang]

There is indeed a small bug in the logger of KeySystemW3CClearKey. I'm fixing it....

[nicosang]

@boris-petrov , could you, please, take a look at my PR? Does it fully fix your issue?

thanks,
Nico

[boris-petrov]

@nicosang - yes, this branch fixes the issue.

[Murmur]

Please see this example player, I can use laurl for ClearkeyDRM system but kid:key option does not work. I have used a latest and nightly dash.js script. Is this fix still missing from the nightly build?

kid=QyFWeBI0EjQSNBI0EjQSNA==
key=EjQSNBI0EjQSNBI0EjQSNA==

This one works fine using a ClearkeyDRM laurl option.
