      Article summary

      Using the media actions (parameter "mk") and the transferred positions (parameter "mt1"), the key figures for the media streams are calculated. It is therefore important to ensure that the requests are sent in the correct order. For example, no actions will be measured until a "play" for the video has taken place.

      Notes on Media-Sessions

      Please observe the following notes on media sessions:

      • A media session is terminated with the media actions eof, stop and init (initalso creates a new media session in this request).

      • With constant media ID and subsequent play follows, the old media session is continued.

      • With constant media ID and subsequent init, the old media session is closed and a new media session is started.

      • With different media IDs, a new media session is started. The will lead to multiple media sessions in parallel.
