Is there a way to create a group of streams with AWS MediaConvert that has 1080p and 720p HLS streams, and a 4K AV1 stream (not compatible with iOS yet) that is an option for users on PC’s and Android?
MediaConvert seems to only allow AV1 in CMAF if I use MPEG-DASH, but then it doesn’t work on iOS.
If not the only workaround I can think of is creating 2 FVPlayer shortcodes, one with the HLS and one with DASH, then somehow tell the browser which shortcode to load based on which browser it is? I hope I’m wrong about that because I’d like to avoide having duplicates of every vid.
Thanks!

Hello Strad,
Are you using the URL signatures to increase protection of your HLS stream? If so then next FV Player Pro plugin will include a new feature which is described here: https://foliovision.com/2023/07/limit-video-quality
To get it right now please deactivate and delete the FV Player Pro plugin you are using, then hit “Install Pro extension” at the top of the wp-admin -> FV Player -> Settings screen.
Then switch to the Beta release using the steps from here if you are not already using it: https://foliovision.com/player/basic-setup/switching-fv-player-pro-to-beta
Then you should be able to avoid using that 4K stream for mobile.
Thanks,
Martin
