What’s FairPlay Streaming?
FairPlay Streaming (FPS) is Apple’s proprietary DRM system for securing digital video media across their range of products.
Their system works natively with HLS muxed MPEG-TS, but also CMAF (using an fMP4 container) for Common Encryption (CENC) compatibility.
Apple platforms using FPS:
- iOS
- iPadOS
- tvOS
- Safari browser
- macOS

Heads-up! Apple requires OTT services to first complete a registration step with them before their DRM system can be used.
Apple currently doesn’t allow FairPlay Streaming to be used with MPEG-DASH content. But no worry! We’ll help you to enable DRM-secured MPEG-DASH on iOS and iPadOS with our powerful PRESTOplay player SDK.
