I have an SSL site all over the place and I am getting errors pulling content from my audio video streaming service

I am using SSL on my site, so I get errors when I pull the video stream from my azure media services account. All urls I get to stream content of the source server when publishing are http. I need them to be https. Is there anyway I can configure the origin service or is there something I can do before publishing to have the service serve these requests using SSL?

Unfortunately, Windows Azure Media Services (WAMS) does not support Https.

Streaming formats like HLS are actually transfer formats like Http. HLS, by its very nature, does not support HTTPS. Instead, it has other content protection mechanisms, WAMS uses HLS + 128-bit AES. All content streamed is AES encrypted.



Depending on your security requirements, you won't need to serve requests with https. The request that retrieves the source locator url must be https already, the request that stores it in your database must be https, the request that provides the url to the client must be https, so when encrypted with AES by default it is fully protected.
