JW / CF Expiry

this: http://wpacademy.tv/secure-rtmp-streaming-video-wordpress-plugin-for-cloudfront-flowplayer-and-jwplayer

lets me set expiry in the shorcode

how can that be done with your :

Amazon® S3/CloudFront CDN Storage & Delivery
JW Player® & RTMP Protocol

also, where does the code “live”…if i wanted to access the streams to use in a json feed to a web based video app?

Hi Bob.

You mean the expiration time for the CF URL s2Member generates?

also, where does the code “live”…if i wanted to access the streams to use in a json feed to a web based video app?

You mean use the URL to the file in CF in another application? You can use the URLs with querystring or without it, as explained in [hilite path]Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options[/hilite], it doesn’t have to be a shortcode.

The expiration time for CloudFront URLs, defaults to 24 hours.
The only way to change this in s2Member, is to filter the value via WordPress.

Create this directory and file:
/wp-content/mu-plugins/s2-hacks.php
( these are MUST USE plugins, see: http://codex.wordpress.org/Must_Use_Plugins )

also, where does the code “live”…if i wanted to access the streams to use in a json feed to a web based video app?

Sorry, I’m not sure what you mean by “live” in that context. Can you please elaborate just a bit further for me?

FYI: s2Member’s Shortcode for RTMP streams, can also produce a JSON object if you prefer. There is a code sample in your Dashboard, for JW Player, that uses a JSON approach.

See: Dashboard -› s2Member® -› Download Options -› Shortcode Attributes & API Functions
See also, API Function: s2member_file_download_url()
