19805 2012-10-31 22:11:15 +0000 Restriction to only use initData in createSession is too restrictive 2013-04-24 22:35:13 +0000 1 1 1 Unclassified HTML WG Encrypted Media Extensions unspecified PC All RESOLVED FIXED P2 normal --- 1 steele ddorwin adrianba ddorwin mike public-html-media public-html-bugzilla oldest_to_newest 77587 0 steele 2012-10-31 22:11:15 +0000 I would like to see this note removed from the createSession() method -- "Note: cdm must not use any data, including media data, not provided via initData." This is too restrictive, since the CDM may do things like signing the key request with an embedded key, which would add data not provided by initData. 77604 1 ddorwin 2012-10-31 22:43:06 +0000 This was intended to refer to media data or any other media/stream-specific values. The intent is that all media-identifying values used to create a license should be available in the needkey event and could be constructed by the application without relying on the stream. This intent seems independent of your use case. I think s/data/media data/ would address both concerns. What do you think? 77608 2 ddorwin 2012-10-31 22:51:39 +0000 Oops, that replacement doesn't make sense. How about this? "Note: cdm must not use any stream-specific data, including media data, not provided via initData." 77682 3 steele 2012-11-01 16:04:03 +0000 That text is much better. Now I understand the intent. 77685 4 ddorwin 2012-11-01 16:45:29 +0000 Will update in a future edit. 86743 5 adrianba 2013-04-24 22:35:13 +0000 Fixed -> https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/html-media/rev/70e0d6713156
