CONNECT Player SDK 5 for Android Documentation

The CONNECT Player SDK 5 for Android enables you to embed the player within an existing or new native Java or Kotlin application. The SDK wraps and extends the media player API, providing a similar interface to the Android Video view.

Supported audio and video codecs

SDK file contents

NAGRA supplies two variants of the SDK library, one with PRM support and one without. 
If PRM is not required, the Android SDK 5 package typically contains the following files:

• opy-sdk-android-<version>-example-code.zip
  This contains code examples to demonstrate the features of the CONNECT Player; see the  Android SDK5 Example Code Quick Start  guide.
• opy-sdk-android-<version>-sdk-integration.zip
  This contains the .aar file used for integration activities; see the  Android SDK 5 Integration Guide: Creating the project.

• opy-sdk-android-<version>-sdk-production.zip
  This contains the .aar file that replaces the integration version when the application is ready to be deployed; see the  Android SDK 5 Integration Guide: Building the production version.

If you have requested PRM-protected playback with PAK support, PRM versions of the above files will be supplied:

• opy-sdk-android-<version>-example-code-prm.zip
• opy-sdk-android-<version>-sdk-prm-integration.aar
• opy-sdk-android-<version>-sdk-prm-production.aar

In addition, the PRM Operational Vault file opvault.json is also provided.
