DASH-JS with ISO Base Media File Format Support
DASH-JS has been updated to the latest version of the Media Source API and now supports ISO Base Media File Format (IBMFF)-based media segments. Now the latest version (v.23) of Google Chrome supports the Media Source API by default, enabling the playback of WebM and IBMFF media segments.
DASH-JS is a seamless integration of Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) into the Web using the HTML5 video element. Moreover, it is based on JavaScript which uses the Media Source API of Google’s Chrome browser to present a flexible and potentially browser independent DASH player.
