Are you referring to the PreRoll element? We can bring this in as an additional subsection of IF-5

Will the CR support the pre-roll element in the new MPEG DASH amendment ?
Hi @haudiobe / @technogeek00 ,
From our side, it looks like that the best way to handle Pre-Roll in a live Stream is to use a chain manifest. This has the advantage of forcing the player to load the preroll ad and to start at its beginning. AlternativeMPD event could also be a way to achieve it, but I think it's more complex. The Preroll Event will have to be in the main manifest for the duration of the stream (so that the main manifest can be served to all users) and players should only request it when they start a new session.
PreRoll can be added to Server Side Ad Insertion.
Provide clear requirements on how a PreRoll can be added to a client joining a service.
