MRSS filenames in log file? Please explain.

Anyone... 

I have a MRSS feed in my presentation updated from my own MRSS feed. Works fine BUT if I look at the LOG file it only shows the no-hash file names. (NOT the file names used for the media int he feed)

Can some one explain the format of the no-hash files or how it is generated in the MRSS pool feed so I can link / decrypt and tie that back to original file name to be able to report on the play-out of all MRSS videos/media?

Thanks!

J

    Hi Jaco,

    In order to get the original names of the files, you should calculate the sha1 checksum of the contents which were included in the MRSS feed and compare the sha1 values with the data in the log.

    We have a feature request (# 20296) to improve the logging of MRSS / Dynamic Playlist playback. It is going to be implemented in BrightAuthor version 4.4.

    I have tried the following in php

    $filename = sha1_file($filepath);

    the response is not the same as the one from the log file, filename
