Producer Reference Time

Producer Reference Time is a concept introduced in the context of LL-DASH. The PRFT supplies times corresponding to the production of associated media. Among other benefits, this information (i) provides media clients with information to enable consumption and production to proceed at equivalent rates, avoiding possible buffer overflow or underflow,

Low-Latency Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP

Low-Latency Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP is an extension of the MPEG-DASH protocol designed to minimize latency in video streaming. While both LL-DASH and DASH are based on similar principles and share many features, the key difference lies in their focus on reducing latency.

Encoded Bitrate

Encoded Bitrate is the bitrate of the compressed (i.e. during ABR encode/transcode) audio or video media objects, each Bitrate level representing different quality levels in ABR. The concept of Encoded Bitrate is inherent in various ABR-related definitions: e.g. CMCD br key, e.g. HLS Playlist Variant Stream BANDWIDTH parameter, e.g. DASH

Common Media Application Format

Common Media Application Format is an Apple-Microsoft standard aiming to simplify workflows by defining concurrent use of multiple ABR methods (e.g. DASH, HLS) while using one set of audio and video media files.

Manifest

A manifest refers to a text file that describes other files that can be fetched as part of Adaptive Bitrate Streaming (ABR). A master manifest is a text file which describes a list of rendition manifests along with the resolution, bitrate, location (URL) and other details of each rendition. A rendition
