Remote asset limitations
The following are limitations you should be aware of when using remote asset videos:
- SSAI is not supported for remote assets.
- DRM is supported only if you can customize the player to communicate with the DRM license server. This is possible with the Brightcove Player through a plugin. For other players, you will need to consult the player documentation.
- All videos ingested into Video Cloud can be played back in the Brightcove Player. For non-Brightcove players, which is you will mostly encounter in Brightcove Beacon, you will need to verify that the video format is fully supported by each platform. Also, there are a few advanced features of DASH and HLS that Brightcove do not yet support
