SCTE35 Parser
The SCTE (Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers) defines the SCTE-35 as "SCTE 35, Digital Program Insertion Cueing Message for Cable, is the core signaling standard for advertising and distribution control (ex. blackouts) of content for content providers and content distributors" SCTE-35 CUEs are signals that can be used to identify AD breaks, program chapters etc in a VOD, DVR or live streams contents. While creating the original content, encoders uses SCTE-104 messages to insert appropriate SCTE-35 info in the stream. This usually will be packaged as separate stream with other video, audio streams. The downstream packager can use this info to create appropriate SCTE-35 CUEs on the end user metadata, for example HLS manifest, DASH manifest etc. Sample manifest with SCTE-35 cues: #EXTM3U #EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:10 #EXT-X-VERSION:3 #EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:00001 http://server-host/path/file44.ts http://server-host/path/file45.ts SCTE 35 2016 SCTE STANDARD ©SCT
