.NET 8.0
.NET library for parsing and generating SCTE-35 cue messages (port of Comcast/scte35-go)
Get Started
$ dotnet add package Scte35.NetReadme
Scte35.Net
A .NET 8 library for parsing and generating SCTE‑35 cue messages, adapted to idiomatic C# with guardrails around binary parsing and validation.
Based in part on Comcast's scte35-go, with C#/.NET adaptations and additional validation.
- Source:
src/Scte35.Net
- Tests:
tests/Scte35.Net.Tests
- License: Apache 2.0
Features
- Decode/encode SCTE‑35
splice_info_section to/from bytes, Hex, and Base64.
- High-level helpers:
FromHex, FromBase64, TryDecode, ToHex, ToBase64.
- Commands: SpliceNull, SpliceSchedule, SpliceInsert, TimeSignal, BandwidthReservation, Private (unknown → preserved).
- Descriptors: Avail, DTMF, Segmentation, Time, Audio, plus opaque Private descriptors.
- CRC32 (MPEG‑2) computed/validated via
Crc32Valid.
- .NET 8 target, nullable enabled.
Install
- NuGet (package id:
Scte35.Net):
dotnet add package Scte35.Net
From source: open Scte35.Net.sln, then dotnet restore and dotnet build.Quick Start
Decode from Base64/Hex/Bytes
using Scte35.Net;
using Scte35.Net.Model;
// Base64
SpliceInfoSection section = Scte35.FromBase64("/DABAAAAAAAAAP/wFAUAAABf+/w==");
// Hex ("0x" prefix optional)
section = Scte35.FromHex("FC300000000000000FFF0140500000017FEFF");
// Raw bytes
if (Scte35.TryDecode(mySpan, out var parsed)) {
// parsed.SpliceCommandType, parsed.SpliceDescriptors, parsed.Crc32Valid, ...
}
Create a Basic Time Signal and Encode
using Scte35.Net;
using Scte35.Net.Model;
using Scte35.Net.Model.Enums;
using Scte35.Net.Model.SpliceCommand;
var section = new SpliceInfoSection {
SapType = SapType.NotSpecified,
Tier = 0x0FFF,
SpliceCommand = new TimeSignalCommand {
TimeSpecifiedFlag = true,
// 10 seconds in 90kHz ticks
PtsTime90K = 10UL * 90_000
}
};
byte[] wire = Scte35.Encode(section);
string b64 = Scte35.ToBase64(section);
string hex = Scte35.ToHex(section);
Create a Basic Splice Insert (Program Immediate)
using Scte35.Net.Model.SpliceCommand;
var insert = new SpliceInsertCommand {
SpliceEventId = 1,
OutOfNetworkIndicator = true,
ProgramSpliceFlag = true,
SpliceImmediateFlag = true,
DurationFlag = false,
UniqueProgramId = 1,
AvailNum = 0,
AvailsExpected = 0
};
var msg = new SpliceInfoSection { SpliceCommand = insert };
string insertHex = Scte35.ToHex(msg);
Tests
- Run:
dotnet test -c Release
- Suite: xUnit; tests mirror source (e.g.,
tests/Scte35.Net.Tests/Model/SpliceInsertTests.cs).
- Focus areas: bit‑exact encode/decode, CRC32 validation, descriptor loops, and edge cases (e.g., 33‑bit PTS masking).
- Includes conformance/spec vector coverage under
tests/Scte35.Net.Tests/Conformance.
Advanced
- Private Commands: pass a recognizer to skip unknown PrivateCommand identifiers during decode:
Scte35.FromHex(hex, privateId => privateId == 0x43554549 /* CUEI */);
- Hex/Base64 helpers are available via
Scte35.ToHex/ToBase64 and Bytes utilities.
