Manifest manipulator for live streams

The Pod Serving API provides access to encoded and conditioned ad segments, prepared in such a way that they can be stitched directly into a user-facing HLS or MPEG-DASH media playlist. For MPEG-DASH, the Pod Serving API also provides a manifest template to provide additional information and context for these ad segments.

This guide is focused on implementing a basic Pod Serving manifest manipulation server for live streams.

Prerequisite: Configure livestream events in Google Ad Manager

Before making any requests from the pod serving API, you must create an Ad Manager livestream event for each stream you process. You can create a livestream event using the LiveStreamEventService API or the Google Ad Manager web interface.

For a livestream event to be used with the pod serving API, you will need to populate several attributes of your event:

  • customAssetKey - A custom identifier to be used for this Event. Must be unique across all Events for the network.
  • adTags - Primary ad tag URL generated by the Ad Manager trafficking workflow.
  • dynamicAdInsertionType - Must be set to POD_SERVING_REDIRECT.
  • streamingFormat - Set to HLS or DASH accordingly.
  • segmentUrlAuthenticationKeyIds - at least one HMAC key used to sign ad segment requests.
  • daiEncodingProfileIds - A list of the DAIEncodingProfile IDs enabled for this event.
  • startDateTime - The start date and time of the event
  • endDateTime - The scheduled end date and time of this event. This attribute is required if unlimitedEndDateTimeis false and ignored ifunlimitedEndDateTimeis true.unlimitedEndDateTime` - Boolean. See above.

Receive stream manifest requests

Your manifest manipulator must provide an API endpoint to listen for manifest requests from the video player client app. At minimum, this endpoint must collect a stream ID from the client player app, and must return a stitched stream manifest. The stream ID is used to identify the streaming session to Ad Manager.

You also need to collect some other information to identify the appropriate content stream, for example, a content ID.

Example of a potential manifest request endpoint

GET /api/video/{asset_key}/manifest.{format}
Host: {your_domain}
Path parameters
asset_key A hypothetical ID corresponding to the requested livestream in your system.
format A hypothetical parameter corresponding to the stream format. One of either:
mpd For MPEG-DASH streams
m3u8 For HLS streams
Query parameters
stream_id The Ad Manager stream ID from the client video player app.

Retrieve the content stream

Use the content ID collected from the manifest request to select the content stream to stitch with ads.

Stitch ad segments into content stream

Stitching ad segment URLs will differ, depending on your stream format.

HLS streams

HLS streams are usually served as a multivariant manifest, which will contain a set of links to variant manifests, which correspond to each of the encoding profiles.

note: For simplicity, this guide assumes that your HLS media is encoded in a format which muxes audio and video into the same segment file.

Proxy multivariant playlists

You will need to replace each variant playlist URL in the original multivariant playlist with another endpoint call to the manipulator to process the player's selected variant manifest.

The remaining steps for stitching HLS will assume that a single variant manifest is being processed.

Example of a potential variant request endpoint
GET /api/video/{asset_key}/variant/{variant_id}.m3u8
Host: {your_domain}
Path parameters
asset_key A hypothetical ID corresponding to the requested livestream in your system.
variant A hypothetical parameter containing an identifier for the specific variant being processed.
Query parameters
stream_id The Ad Manager stream ID from the client video player app. used here to identify a user session with the manifest manipulator.

Identify ad break segments and insert discontinuities

As you process the variant manifest, keep track of the start time, duration, and index of the next upcoming ad break, until the dynamic manifest being processed contains segments that will be replaced by the ad content.

Ad breaks may be delineated from content segments in different ways, depending on your encoder. One common way to delineate an ad break is to preface the ad segments with an #EXT-X-CUE-OUT tag and follow it with an #EXT-X-CUE-IN tag.

To separate Google-hosted ad breaks from your content segments, you must insert #EXT-X-DISCONTINUITY tags at the start and end of each ad break. If these discontinuity tags don't appear in the final manifest, playback will fail.

The inserted ad segment URIs are unencrypted. If your content is encrypted, you will also need to remove encryption by specifying #EXT-X-KEY:METHOD=NONE prior to the first ad segment of each ad break and then add it back after the ad break.

Process ad pod segments

For each segment within an ad pod, you must track a few additional values:

  • segment_number: Segment index within the ad pod, starting with zero. Or "init" for mp4 initialization segment.
  • segment_duration: Duration of the current segment in milliseconds. This value should be the same for all segments except the last one in the pod.
  • segment_offset: Segment offset calculated by adding the previous segment's duration to its segment offset in milliseconds
  • last: Boolean value identifying the last segment in an ad pod. Defaults to false.

Build ad segment URLs

Replace each segment within the ad break with a URL of the format:

/linear/pods/v1/seg/network/{network_code}/custom_asset/{custom_asset_key}/pod/{pod_id}/profile/{profile_name}/{segment_number}.(ts|mp4|vtt|aac|ac3|eac3)
Path parameters
network_code The Ad Manager 360 network code for this network.
custom_asset_key The custom livestream asset key specified in the LiveStreamEventService API or on the livestream page in the Ad Manager 360 web interface.
pod_id Identifier for the ad break. Should be an integer starting at 1 and increasing by one for each ad break.

This value must be the same across all users viewing the same ad break in the current event.
profile_name Identifier for the profile being requested,
segment_number The index of this segment within the current ad pod, starting at zero.
When using MP4 container, the initialization segment can be requested by setting segment_number to "init".
Query parameters
stream_id Required The user's stream_id param returned from the Stream Create request.
sd Required segment_duration
so Optional segment_offset

If so is missing, it's assumed that previous segments all have the same duration and the segment offset is calculated from segment_number and sd.
pd Required, except for events with durationless ad breaks enabled The duration (in milliseconds) of the ad break. Also referred to as ad_pod_duration.
auth-token Required A signed, url-encoded HMAC token for this ad pod.
last Optional Boolean indicating the last segment in the ad break. Defaults to false.

The query parameter values must be properly encoded to be URL-safe. This is especially important for the auth-token field, since it could contain /, +, and = characters.

Populate the period template

The period template contains several macros that you must replace for each ad break. All macros must be replaced. Unused macros should be replaced with an empty string ("").

Macro Description Example
$$pod-id$$ The index of the ad pod this period represents. This value must match for the same pod across all viewer sessions. 1
$$period-start$$ The time when the period starts in the current MPD. An optional attribute that should be replaced by start="###", where ### is the presentation time at which the ad break starts. If the period's start time is not provided, this macro should be replaced with an empty string. start="PT2H33M30S"
$$period-duration$$ The duration of the complete ad period. An optional attribute that should be replaced by duration="###", where ### is the duration of the ad period in the standard DASH duration format. If the period's duration is not provided, this macro should be replaced with an empty string. duration="PT15S"
$$pod-duration$$ The expected duration of ads to be decisioned for this pod, in milliseconds. 15000
$$number-of-repeated-segments$$ This value is calculated by dividing the ad period duration (in milliseconds) by the value of segment_duration_ms, and rounding up to the nearest whole number. 3
$$cust_params$$ This macro can be replaced by the custom targeting parameters unique to the current ad break, if. provided. The value must be formatted as described in this Ad Manager Help Center article. If no custom params are needed this macro should be replaced with an empty string. &cust_params=section%3Dblog%26anotherKey%3Dvalue1%2Cvalue2
$$scte35$$ This macro needs to be replaced by a scte35 value unique to that ad break, if one is provided. If no scte35 information is needed, this macro should be replaced with an empty string. /DAqAAAAAAAA///wDwVAAAT2f0/+ecF1mQABC/8ACgAIQ1VFSQAAAAsuZVlR
$$token$$ A signed, url-encoded HMAC token. This token is required. custom_asset_key%3DiYdOkYZdQ1KFULXSN0Gi7g~exp%3D1489680000~network_code%3D6062~pd%3D180000~pod_id%3D5~hmac%3D6a8c44c72e4718ff63ad2284edf2a8b9e319600b430349d31195c99b505858c9
