DVB MPEG-DASH Profile Specification

The DVB MPEG-DASH Profile Specification defines the delivery of TV content via HTTP adaptive streaming. This includes the following:
  • A profile of the features defined in MPEG DASH (referred to by MPEG as an "interoperability point") largely based on the "ISOBMFF live" profile defined by MPEG.

  • Constraints on the sizes or complexity of various parameters defined in the MPEG DASH specification.

  • A selection of the video and audio codecs from the DVB toolbox that are technically appropriate with MPEG DASH constraints and/or requirements for the use of these, without mandating any particular codec.

  • Using MPEG Common Encryption for content delivered according to the present document.

  • Use of TTML subtitles with MPEG DASH.

  • Requirements on Player behaviour needed to give inter-operable presentation of services.

  • Guidelines for content providers on how to use MPEG DASH.
