Abstract:
MPEG-DASH is the emerging adaptive streaming standard that's designed to replace proprietary transport mechanisms such as HDS, Smooth Streaming or HLS. Already adopted or considered by many TV standards around the world, deployed by YouTube and Netflix and supported in Google Chrome, Chromecast, and Microsoft Internet Explorer among others, MPEG-DASH is taking the video world by storm. Even though adaptive streaming is often considered a pure video topic, the panel will discuss its implications on the audio side from an engineering and commercial perspective.
