Build your app with the DRM-X Universal Player.Choose Android, iOS/iPadOS, Apple TV or Samsung Tizen. Each package includes player integration, a sample app and setup instructions. These packages are developer previews; use the device evidence below to plan your own release checks. This new guide is currently available in English.

1. Choose your platform#

Android

Kotlin, Media3 and Widevine. Phone and TV samples, streaming and protected VOD downloads on compatible devices.

Try the APK and build an Android app →

iPhone & iPad

Samsung Smart TV

JavaScript, Samsung AVPlay and Widevine DASH VOD. Full-screen controls, playlists and remote navigation.

Try the TV kit and build a Tizen app →

2. Download the SDK from Console#

Sign in.Open Console → Integrations using the customer organization with an active Professional or Enterprise subscription.
Choose your platform card.Download Android's AAR/full SDK, the Apple SDK ZIP, or the Tizen SDK ZIP. iOS and tvOS use the same Apple ZIP.
Extract and open README.md.Keep the supplied folder structure. The Console shows release details and SHA-256 checksums. Keep customer SDK bundles in your private team dependency storage.
Run the sample, then connect your app.Follow the platform guide. Use your own app identifiers and signing certificates. Qualify your content, backend and physical devices before distributing your app.

Download	Access	What you receive
Android SDK	Professional / Enterprise	1.0.0-preview.13 AAR, complete SDK and build-verified consumer sample projects
Apple SDK	Professional / Enterprise	1.0.0-preview.3 Swift Package, iOS/tvOS Xcode samples and tests
Tizen SDK	Professional / Enterprise	1.0.0-preview.1 JavaScript API, types, remote-control sample and tests
Android evaluation APK	Public	Signed demonstration app; download and install
Samsung evaluation kit / WGT	Public	Unsigned widget and local companion; configure and sign for your TV
Apple evaluation	Build from the eligible SDK	Sign the sample with your Apple team. No public IPA or TestFlight release is supplied.

Trial and Standard accounts can read every guide and download the public evaluation apps. SDK download permission is checked by the server, including when an old download link is reused.

3. Connect your backend and published content#

Package and publish an encrypted video. Use DASH/CENC for Android/Tizen and HLS/CBCS with an active FairPlay deployment for Apple.
Create an authenticated HTTPS playback-session endpoint in your own backend. It checks the viewer's entitlement and calls DRM-X Playback Session API.
Return Universal Playback Session Contract v1 with the registered manifest, license/certificate routes, bounded authorization and release route. Keep the Site Key and Access Key on the server.
Set the app's endpoint, published Content IDs and viewer-login callback. A streaming session is created when viewing begins; stop or replace playback to release it.
Play VOD first. Confirm audio, seek, captions supplied by your content, content switching, denied access and session release. Test live only during an active event.

The SDK does not replace your customer login or subscription logic. Start with the backend examples; use a token proxy when your architecture needs it.

See the player interfaces#

Images show app controls, without account details, credentials or license tokens. DRM-protected video may appear black in a screenshot; images alone do not establish playback support.

Android player settings screenshot with quality, audio, captions and speed controls — **Android settings.**Earlier development UI capture. The current APK adds the updates described in the Android guide. Tap the settings control inside the video to choose supported tracks and playback options.

Physical iPhone Universal Player in Ready state with downloaded playlist — **Physical iPhone app.**Ready state and downloaded playlist. Choose a title, then Play; use the in-video settings for captions and audio. This image shows the app interface, not an active movie frame.

Physical Apple TV player paused with playlist and transport controls — **Physical Apple TV app.**Playlist on the left; playback and settings below the video. The protected video area is black in the capture. Use the remote to choose a video, move to controls, seek or enter full screen.

Samsung TV interface desktop preview explicitly labelled no video playback — **Samsung interface preview.**Captured from the maintained UI in a desktop test fixture, explicitly labelled “NO VIDEO PLAYBACK.” It illustrates playlist, remote focus and control positions. The separate physical M5 VOD result is described below.

Tested devices and release checks#

Platform	Recorded physical evidence	Scope to qualify in your app
Android	Samsung S24 Ultra: VOD/offline flows and live key rotation; September 17 live run reached 1920×1080.	Your device/CDM, quality/output policy, offline expiry, cold start and renewal. This result does not claim Android 4K playback.
iOS	iPhone 11: VOD, protected download/resume/renewal; six-minute 4K-capable live/key-rotation run.	Fully disconnected cold start, your content/output policies and physical iPad. Simulator layout is not FairPlay playback evidence.
tvOS	Physical Apple TV: FairPlay VOD and remote controls.	Live, 4K/HDR and each Apple TV/output combination. This package offers streaming on tvOS.
Samsung Tizen	M5 LS27DM501EEXXY / Tizen 9: protected Full HD VOD, advancing playback and English/Chinese caption switching confirmed September 17.	New customer-contract wrapper with your backend and each TV. Live, offline and HDR are not qualified. The local demo helper is an evaluation dependency.

Customer release validation: Android consumer apps compiled against the packaged AAR; Apple package passed 25 tests and both iOS/tvOS simulator builds on Xcode 26.3; Tizen lifecycle/UI tests and companion tests pass. Device results refer to the earlier physically tested engines and UI, not a fresh physical acceptance run of every customer package.

If the sample does not play#

SDK download unavailable: confirm the selected organization has an active Professional or Enterprise subscription; sign in again if the session expired.
Video authorization fails: check the Published Content ID, viewer entitlement and server endpoint. Do not put tenant credentials into the app to work around it.
Apple simulator cannot play: run on a signed physical device for FairPlay.
Samsung installation fails: check Developer Mode, DUID, certificate profile and Permit to install applications. Follow the Tizen signing steps.
TV video stutters: provide a compatible codec/rendition ladder; the tested M5 needs Full HD rather than a UHD-first demo manifest.

For support, share SDK version, device/OS, Content ID, time and a redacted error code. Exclude credentials, session authorization, signed URLs and license payloads.
