Steps
Check platform support by calling shaka.offline.Storage.support() before offering a download option in the UI.
Instantiate a shaka.offline.Storage object, optionally passing an existing Player instance to reuse its network and DRM configuration.
Call configure() on the Storage instance to set progress callbacks and offline-specific track selection preferences.
Call store(manifestUri, appMetadata) to download and persist the manifest and segments into IndexedDB, awaiting the returned promise.
Use list() to enumerate stored content and load its generated offline URI into a Player for playback; call remove() to delete stored content when no longer needed.
Known gotchas
Offline storage relies on IndexedDB, so storage limits and eviction behavior are governed by the browser, not Shaka Player itself.
Multi-DRM protected content requires a key system that supports persistent licenses for offline playback to work at all.
A Storage object should be destroy()'d when done, and shouldn't be used for a store() operation at the same time a Player instance is actively playing online.
