Use with AgileTV Origin

AgileTV Origin Configuration

AgileTV Origin communicates with ASR over a WebSocket URL that is used both to send audio to ASR and to receive subtitles back. The WebSocket URL is based on the id for your ASR account and have the form wss://<your-id>.asr.agilecontent.com/api/v1/sbapi.

When integrated with AgileTV Origin the audio and subtitle track languages are configured in AgileTV Origin. The language codes to use are described under ASR Engine. We currently support 2 variants of operation

1. One audio and one subtitle track with the same language code
2. When Speechmatic’s ASR engine is used it is also possible to specify the subtitle track langugage as a translated language instead of the original audio language as long as it is a combination supported by Speechmatics.

See the AgileTV Origin documentation for details on AgileTV Origin configuration.

Configure a AgileTV Origin Channel

Channels are configured in ASR to tune ASR settings for a AgileTV Origin channel. Create a channel configuration with input type sbapi in a file mychannel.json

{
  "id": "sbchannel",
  "name": "AgileTV Origin Channel",
  "input": {
    "type":"sbapi"
  },
  "engine": "google",
  "segmentation": {
    "rows": 2,
    "chars_per_row": 40,
    "progressive": false
  }
}

and apply it to the configuration API with

$ curl -i -u "<username>:<password>" -XPOST -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://<your-id>.asr.agilecontent.com/api/v1/channels -d @mychannel.json

Tune ASR settings by changing the engine and segmentation settings. Note that both the port in the input section and the outputs are unused when integrated with AgileTV Origin.

Remove a AgileTV Origin Channel

To remove a AgileTV Origin channel delete the corresponding resource in the API

$ curl -i -u "<username>:<password>" -XDELETE https://<your-id>.asr.agilecontent.com/api/v1/channels/sbchannel

This will also terminate any active AgileTV Origin sessions on the channel.
