Only needs an update on the reference chain. Mark/Mike will provide a change request.
The ATSC-DASH-IF IoP should refer to the DASH-IF IoP v4.1 regarding how theDASH client starts playout, using MPD Anchor if provided. I propose that a statement be added to Section 4.4 Client Recommendations: "The DASH Client should follow the guidelines in the DASH-IF IoP v4.1 regarding Section 4.3.4.4 Joining, Initial Buffering and Playout Recommendations, including starting playback at the MPD Anchor, if one is present.”
added to v1.03
An API has been included in A/344 that allows a Broadcaster Application to control playback of on demand content through the Receiver Media Player using the MPD Anchor mechanism. (Refer to the A/344 Candidate Standard for definitions of the 'Broadcaster Application', 'Receiver Media Player' and the API used to play back on demand content.)
The MPD Anchor is defined in ISO 23009-1, extended in ISO 23009-1 Amd. 3, and it is discussed in the DASH IOP v4.0. It is not mentioned in the ATSC 3.0 DASH IOP v1.0.
A/344 would like to only normatively reference A/331 which, in turn, references the ATSC 3.0 DASH IOP v1.0. To allow A/344 to use the MPD Anchor, the ATSC 3.0 DASH IOP would be required to include a clause referencing the relevant syntax of the MPD Anchor from the appropriate standards or IOPs to avoid directly referencing the pertinent ISO 230091 Amd. 3.
Please add a clause to reference the MPD Anchor into the ATSC 3.0 DASH IOP.
