ContentType specification in mp4dash #103

Open rodrigobdz opened 8 years ago

It should be possible for mp4dash to define the contentType of an Adaptation Set which is visible in the Manifest file. This could be achieved with a flag for mp4dash to differentiate between video and audio adaptation sets.

This is something I can add in the next release. But please also note that it is usually recommended that the mimeType attribute be used to differentiate between content types, as documented in the MPEG DASH IF recommendation (http://dashif.org/guidelines/)

Thanks. I had some problems with the DASH-IF DASH Live Simulator when the contentType attribute was not present in the Manifest.
