Abstract:
A method of media streaming implemented by a network device, the method comprising encapsulating a message box into one or more packets in a segment, and sending the segment directly or indirectly to a streaming client.
Abstract:
System and method embodiments are provided for segment integrity and authenticity for adaptive streaming. In an embodiment, the method includes receiving at a data processing system a segment of a media stream, determining, with the data processing system, a digest or a digital signature for the segment, and comparing, with the data processing system, the digest/digital signature to a correct digest or a correct digital signature to determine whether the segment has been modified.

Abstract:
An apparatus comprising a memory, a processor coupled to the memory and configured to obtain a Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) (DASH) Media Presentation Description (MPD) from an HTTP server, wherein the MPD describes a media presentation as at least one encrypted segment, and wherein the encrypted segment is associated with an availability time and a decryption key, and pre-fetch the decryption key associated with the encrypted segment by requesting the decryption key from a key server prior to the availability time of the encrypted segment.
Abstract:
An apparatus comprises a receiver configured to receive a request for an adaptive streaming media presentation description (MPD), a processor coupled to the receiver and configured to generate the MPD, wherein the MPD indicates an event, and wherein the event is time-related auxiliary information, and a transmitter coupled to the processor and configured to transmit the MPD. A method comprises receiving a request for an adaptive streaming media presentation description (MPD), generating the MPD, wherein the MPD indicates an event, and wherein the event is time-related auxiliary information, and transmitting the MPD. An apparatus comprises a processor configured to generate a request for an adaptive streaming media presentation description (MPD), a transmitter coupled to the processor and configured to transmit the request, and a receiver coupled to the processor and configured to receive the MPD, wherein the MPD indicates an event, and wherein the event is time-related auxiliary information.
Abstract:
System and method embodiments are provided for asynchronous event notification and message handling in dynamic adaptive streaming over hypertext transfer protocol (DASH). The embodiments includes sending in a segment file, from a network server to a client, a message box that is configurable for encryption, for scheduling a callback from the client, and with one or more arguments according to a messaging scheme of the message box. The network server further sends a message handling descriptor to the client for reloading a media presentation description (MPD) for obtaining a DASH event. The client then configures a universal resource locator (URL) for the MPD using the message box and the message handling descriptor, and sends the URL back to the network server. After receiving the URL, the network server sends the MPD to the client, which then uses the MPD to request segments of an asynchronous event.
Abstract:
A method comprising encrypting a segment in response to receiving a segment request to generate an encrypted segment, and sending the encrypted segment, wherein encrypting the segment comprises encrypting a data content segment and a non-media segment in accordance with information provided in a dynamic adaptive streaming over hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) (DASH) media presentation description (MPD), and wherein encrypting the segment generates an encrypted data content segment and an encrypted non-media segment. A method comprising sending a segment request, receiving an encrypted segment, wherein the encrypted segment comprises an encrypted data content segment and an encrypted non-media segment, and decrypting the encrypted segment in accordance with information provided in a DASH MPD to generate a data content segment and a non-media segment, wherein the non-media segment comprises a non-playable media.
Abstract:
Embodiments are provided for segment demarcation and identification in adaptive streaming by enabling marking chunks according to multiple standards simultaneously. An encoder boundary point (EBP) structure is used to indicate a plurality of partitions corresponding to a plurality of representations for a same content. A partition is a set of continuous chunks within a media stream of a defined length according to a corresponding standard. The EBP structure includes a bit-mask that is set to indicate one or more partitions in the stream. The EBP structure can indicate a boundary point for more than two partitions allowing a stream to be partitioned in several ways according to different standards. Additionally, a program map table (PMT) descriptor is used to describe each partition, providing information to process each partition. The PMT descriptor includes a packet identifier (PID) value for packets containing EBP structures.
