MPEG-DASH

MPEG-DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP) is a popular and widely-used adaptive bitrate streaming technology. It allows video and audio content to be streamed seamlessly to a wide range of devices over the Internet.

The main advantage of MPEG-DASH is its adaptive nature, which means that it adjusts the quality of the video stream in real-time based on the user’s network conditions and device capabilities. This allows for an optimal viewing experience, as the user can continue to watch the video without any buffering or quality interruptions, even if their network conditions change.

To implement MPEG-DASH, the content is divided into small segments and encoded at different bitrates and resolutions. These segments are then stored on a web server, from where they can be retrieved and played back by the client (e.g. a web browser, media player, or mobile device).

The client uses an HTTP-based protocol to request the segments from the server, and the server responds by providing the segments in a sequential order. The client then uses the information from the segments to dynamically adjust the quality of the video stream based on the available network bandwidth.

MPEG-DASH also provides a number of advanced features, such as encryption and content protection, multi-language support, and support for live and on-demand streaming. It is compatible with a wide range of video and audio codecs, including H.264, H.265, VP9, and AAC.

Overall, MPEG-DASH provides a flexible and scalable solution for delivering high-quality video and audio content over the Internet. Its adaptive nature and support for multiple devices make it a popular choice for online video and audio streaming services, including Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Prime Video.
