  1. The MPEG-DASH Standard for Multimedia Streaming Over the Internet Chih-Hsiang Chou Advisor: Prof Dr. Ho-Ting Wu Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Taipei University of Technology Taiwan, ROC. Data:13/05/27

  2. Outline • Introduction • DASH • A simple case of adaptive streaming • Scope of MPEG-DASH • MPD and Segment format • Additional features • References

  3. Introduction • Problems : • Delivering video content over the Internet started in the 1990s with timely delivery and consumption of large amounts of data being the main challenge. • Video streaming service in a heterogeneous network environment is the variation in the receiver’s video playback capability.

  4. Introduction • Problems : • Contention for CPU and I/O resources at the video server. This may cause variations in the transmission rate supportable by server.

  5. Introduction • Potential market • Watching the Olympics live over the Internet? • Streaming last week’s episode of your favorite TV show to your game console? • Watching a 24-hour news TV channel on your mobile phone?

  6. Introduction • Potential market • Every commercial platform is a closed system with its own manifest format, content formats, and streaming protocols. • One of the main enablers of this would be an adopted standard that provides interoperability between various servers and devices.

  7. DASH • About DASH • Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), also known as MPEG-DASH, enables high quality streaming of media content over the Internet delivered from conventional HTTP web servers.

  8. DASH • About DASH • 3GPP - Adaptive HTTP Streaming • Open IPTV Forum – HTTP Adaptive Streaming • Adobe – Dynamic Streaming • Microsoft – Smooth Streaming • Apple – HTTP Live Streaming

  11. A simple case of adaptive streaming

  12. Scope of MPEG-DASH

  13. Scope of MPEG-DASH • program timing • media-content availability • media types • resolutions • minimum and maximum bandwidths • accessibility features • required digital rights management(DRM) • media-component locations on the network

  14. Multimedia Presentation Description

  15. Segment format • A segment is defined as the entity body of the response to the DASH client’s HTTP GET. • A media component is encoded and divided in multiple segments. • The first segment might be an initialization segment containing the required information for initialization

  16. Segment format • Each media segment is assigned • a unique URL • an index • start time and duration

  17. Segment format • To enable downloading segments in multiple parts, the specification defines a method of signaling subsegments using a segment index box. • The indexing information of a segment can be put in the single box at the beginning of that segment, or spread among many indexing boxes in the segment. • Different methods of spreading are possible, such as hierarchical, daisy chain, and hybrid.

  18. Additional features • Switching and selectable streams. • selecting one audio stream from different languages, • selecting the subtitles from provided languages, • dynamically switching between different bitrates of the same video camera. • Ad insertion. • Compact manifest. • Fragmented manifest.

  19. Additional features • Scalable Video Coding (SVC) and Multiview Video Coding (MVC) support. • A flexible set of descriptors. • components’ roles, • accessibility features, • camera views, • audio channels’ configuration • Quality metrics for reporting the session experience.
