• DVB-I servies are Live services
• DVB-I services use the DVB DASH format as transmission format
• MPD’s referenced in service lists are provided by Origin servers
• How to create the live feeds ?
• The reference architecture includes different components (see next slide)
• Goals:
 a) interoperability with DVB DASH devices
 b) Interoperability with other devices (e.g. HLS devices)
 c) content interoperability, re-use content for catch-up/VoD, re-broadcast
 d) interoperability between components in architecture
 e) support commercial DRM
 f) support content insertion/replacement

Encoding profiles for DVB DASH
DVB DASH 2014 features: SD/HD/stereo/multi-channel, AVC,HEVC, aac-he v2
DVB DASH 2017 additional features : Next gen audio (MPEG-H audio), HDR, HFR …..
• Input could be an other DVB broadcast feed
• For mezannine, SDI, Zixi, SRT or other inputs could be used
• SMPTE ST 2110
• For ABR delivery, encoders should output CMAF based
fragmented MP4 content for best results

CMAF Track
ftyp sidx
Example CMAF Track
• Live encoder feed with CMAF tracks must be ingested to origin
servers/packagers
• It is recommended to use the HTTP POST method for this
• The detailed protocol was specified in collaboration with companies in the
DASH-IF and published as a DASH-IF technical specification
• The CMAF ingest of tracks is defined in section 5 of:
 https://dashif-documents.azurewebsites.net/Ingest/master/DASH-IF-
Ingest.html
Specification for live uplink/ingest
• Can be used by different manifest formats
• Common format for VoD and Live
• Features like chunking Segments can achieve lower latency in workflows
• CMAF allows signalling track role, language, bit-rate, etc. in a commonly accepted
standard
• By not yet publishing the manifest, late binding can be applied, i.e. Selecting the
relevant tracks for the presentation
• Live support through DASH-IF ingest specification
• Support for common encryption (CENC)

DVB DASH can support any
DRM
e.g.:
Widevine
Playready

By using CPIX key information can be exchanged

CPIX
CPIX
- CPIX defines an XML schema
- ContentKeyID
- ContentKeyList
- CPIX documents can be used for
- Exchanging key information
- Example API AWS Speke = CPIX
- Recommended for complex cases like
Multi-drm, multi-key and so on.

• For DVB-I DVB DASH is the main delivery format
• Track role and accessibility signalling (DASH 4th edition)
• MP4 fragmented subitles encapsulating ttml
• Constraints on mpd and segments (e.g. Non-multiplexed)
• DVB Programme metadata (MPD Event)
DVB DASH delivery
https://dvb.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/12/a168_dvb_mpeg-dash_oct_2019.pdf
DVB DASH with low latency
Feature Explanation Usage
PlayBackRate Allows setting min and max playback rate For player catchup to live edge
Chunked segments Enables smaller granularity processing
@segmentProfiles includes cmfl
For chunked delivery to clients
ProducerReferenceTime Element to signal wallclock time and utc timing
element for synchronizing server and client
For computing the latency at
clients
Scope Element New element in Service Description Useful for distinguishing low
latency and non low latency
clients
ServiceDescription Used to set the requirements for the service
description, may include Latency and playbackrate
Elements
Used by client to find the
service requiremenst
Latency Element to signal Latency (target, min,max) Used by clients to check if they
can playback the content
Example DVB DASH Service Description
<ServiceDescription id="1">
<Scope schemeIdUri="urn:dvb:dash:lowlatency:scope:2019" />
<Latency target="2000" max="6000" min="1000" />

Desciption
MPD Events
Are used to carry meta
information in DVB
DASH
Splice Information in live streams
• HLS uses EXT-X-DATERANGE for carrying SCTE-35 used for ad insertion
• The DASH analogue is an MPD event carrying SCTE-35 according to SCTE 214/DASH IOP
4.3
• The MPD Proxy or ad insertion service, can use this information for inserting or replacing
content, given that the splice timing of the MPD event and the scte-35 match.
<Event presentationTime="1585215648" duration="19" id="649">

<Binary>/DAgAAAAAAAAAP/wDwUAAAKJf//+ABoXsMAAAAAAALcrxk8=</Binary>
</Signal>
</Event>
Presentation time and duration of slot
SCTE-35 is encapsulated as binary
MPD Proxy
• Some features are manifest only changes, and can be handled by an
MPD proxy
• The MPD proxy changes the manifest, but not the segments
 Single to Multi period
 Adding supplemental descriptors (e.g. Adaptationset switching)
 Adding metadata
 Changing the ServiceDescription Elements
 Content insertion of stitching (based on segments already in the CDN)
Origin Server Tips
• Challenge of origin server is handling scale
• Errors (404) can be problematic as they can mitigate through to CDN
• For live streaming CDN offloading is rather effective
• Per channel dimensioning of servers is sometimes deployed, making
a small virtual server for each channel.
• This way channels will be isolated in case of failures
DVB-I Service and play list
• Reference the mpd’s
• In case of live mpd’s only, channels could be fixed running on
different origins 24x7
• It may be necessary to have some more methods for
notification of changes/updates (TBD)
Summary
• Distributed Workflow for encoding and packaging
• Reference architecture with standardized interfaces
• Encoder can produce CMAF and media encoded with the DVB profile
• Packager creates DVB-DASH and commercial encryption
• Origin is used for Distribution via CDN
• Splice information is carried in MPD Event
• Programme metadata is carried in MPD event
• Proxy can add MPD properties and/or insert/replace content based on MPD Event or HLS
DateRange tags
• Proxy could also make specific geo-specific localization changes for DVB-I to the manifest

Splice Information in live streams • HLS uses EXT-X-DATERANGE for carrying SCTE-35 used for ad insertion • The DASH analogue is an MPD event carrying SCTE-35 according to SCTE 214/DASH IOP 4.3 • The MPD Proxy or ad insertion service, can use this information for inserting or replacing content, given that the splice timing of the MPD event and the scte-35 match. <Event presentationTime="1585215648" duration="19" id="649"> <Signal xmlns="http://www.scte.org/schemas/35/2016"> <Binary>/DAgAAAAAAAAAP/wDwUAAAKJf//+ABoXsMAAAAAAALcrxk8=</Binary> </Signal> </Event> Presentation time and duration of slot SCTE-35 is encapsulated as binary
  • 21. MPD Proxy • Some features are manifest only changes, and can be handled by an MPD proxy • The MPD proxy changes the manifest, but not the segments  Single to Multi period  Adding supplemental descriptors (e.g. Adaptationset switching)  Adding metadata  Changing the ServiceDescription Elements  Content insertion of stitching (based on segments already in the CDN)
  • 22. Origin Server Tips • Challenge of origin server is handling scale • Errors (404) can be problematic as they can mitigate through to CDN • For live streaming CDN offloading is rather effective • Per channel dimensioning of servers is sometimes deployed, making a small virtual server for each channel. • This way channels will be isolated in case of failures
  • 23. DVB-I Service and play list • Reference the mpd’s • In case of live mpd’s only, channels could be fixed running on different origins 24x7 • It may be necessary to have some more methods for notification of changes/updates (TBD)
  • 24. Summary • Distributed Workflow for encoding and packaging • Reference architecture with standardized interfaces • Encoder can produce CMAF and media encoded with the DVB profile • Packager creates DVB-DASH and commercial encryption • Origin is used for Distribution via CDN • Splice information is carried in MPD Event • Programme metadata is carried in MPD event • Proxy can add MPD properties and/or insert/replace content based on MPD Event or HLS DateRange tags • Proxy could also make specific geo-specific localization changes for DVB-I to the manifest
