WebOS Native player dash streams (playready drm) Adaptive streaming

Web App Development

Dear Developers, I am currently looking for native player documentation to see how player handles fatal and non fatal errors on playback.
Our streams have multiple multiple bitrate quality levels and wants to know how player decide when to switch levels.

  1. What happens if the a playlist manifest returns 500 or any error. Does player retry again(same bitrate) or does it switch to different bitrate levels?
  2. Is there any to way to configure retry mechanism so that may we can configure it to retry 2 time and may be retry after certain cool off time?
  3. Is there any fatal or non-fatal error that player handles by itself without stopping the playback or throwing error.

If any one can guide me to any documentation or know the answer that will be great.
Thanks for the help and time.
Best Regards

In webOS TV apps, only some specific streaming protocol and DRM combinations are supported. To use PlayReady or Widevine Modular DRM, you should implement your own player with HTML5 MSE/EME or use third party solutions like Shaka Player. So DRM-related specifications are up to the app. We support HTML5 MSE/EME, not DASH. We do not guarantee DASH playback in the native player. Thank you.
