Validation of live media stream based on predetermined standards

摘要

A method includes receiving at least one manifest file, playlists and video chunks for at least one channel of a live media stream. The method includes validating, by a processing device, the live media stream to ensure that the at least one manifest file, the playlists and the video chunks are available. Validating the live media stream includes determining whether the at least one live media stream complies with at least one predetermined standard. The method includes validating the live media stream to ensure that the files are not stale and live. The method also includes validating the live media stream to ensure that the video chunks are properly sequenced, and validating the live media stream based on Hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) headers for the video chunks to determine whether errors are received associated with the live video stream.
