Nimble Streamer has wide support for MPEG-DASH live streaming, including subtitles processing.
When CEA-608 subtitles are integrated into a video track, most players require those subtitles to be declared in the manifest, otherwise a viewer cannot select them at all.
This tag is used in a manifest for the declaration:
where value contains the number of the track with subtitles and their language, e.g. "CC1=eng".<Accessibility schemeIdURI="urn:scte:dash:cc:cea-608:2015" value="CC1=lang">
This option can be set in server settings under Nimble Streamer / Live Streams Settings menu in Global tab in CEA-608 settings field.
This setting is applied to live and DVR output streams.
The format is as follows:
You may combine settings for multiple apps and streams, e.g.
<app1>[/<stream>]:N=<lang>[;N=<lang>] <app2>[/<stream>]:N=<lang>[;N=<lang>]
Each new application is separated by a space. Here's an example where all streams for "live_app" application will have first track with Russian subtitles:
The setting is simply "live_app:1=rus". This is what you'll see in a manifest:
<Accessibility schemeIdURI="urn:scte:dash:cc:cea-608:2015" value="CC1=rus">
This is how you'll see it in your player:
You may combine settings for multiple apps and streams, e.g.
live_app:1=eng;2=rus live_app2/stream1:1=eng;2=fra
will set two tracks for all streams in "live_app" application and also will define two tracks for a single "live_app2/stream1" stream.
If you want to set a setting for entire server, just skip "app=" part, e.g. set parameter to "1=eng"
