Dear @developer , thanks for sharing this issue. Details about MEDIA_ERR_DECODE/PLAYBACK_VIDEO_DECODING_ERROR can be found at PLAYBACK_VIDEO_DECODING_ERROR | Bitmovin Player API 8.129.0. This error could occur due to different reasons, most common being incompatible audio/video codec configuration with the platform.

Since DRM is involved, it could also be related to incorrect content key leading to incorrectly decrypted audio/video data. Can you please share following additional information to help us support you with this behaviour.

  • Which browser(Chrome/Edge/Safari) is the issue observed on?
  • Is it observed on all 3 browsers? Does playback work on any browser?
  • Which version of player SDK are you using?
  • Can you share a test player page where we can replicate the issue?
  • If not, then can you provide source configuration(including DRM configurations headers) for us to replicate this behaviour?

As the complete configuration could be confidential information, it would be better if you can create a support ticket and provide the required information in there. Thanks for your understanding.

Have found the issue. That was a problem with our older urls.

To fix this, we have deprecated such videos
