4 Media presentation conformance
4.1 Overview

A media presentation conforming to ISO/IEC 23009-1 obeys the rules for the media presentation

description (MPD) and the segments referenced within the MPD. To verify the conformance of a media

presentation, the following steps need to be completed:
— the conformance of the MPD according to Clause 5.
© ISO/IEC 2020 – All rights reserved 1
---------------------- Page: 7 ----------------------
ISO/IEC FDIS 23009-2:2020(E)

— the conformance of the segments, which includes the conformance of individual segments and

representations, as well as the conformance of representations that are jointly provided in

adaptation sets and periods. For details, refer to Clause 6.
The process of MPD and segment conformance checking is shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 — MPD and segment validation

MPD + segment validator: gets as an input the MPD and segments referenced from within the MPD

and performs the MPD and segment validation according to the rules defined in Annex A. On success,

the output is an OK report; otherwise, an error message is provided.
4.2 Software tools
The following software tools are included:
— MPD conformance software;
— ISO BMFF segment validator;
— MPEG-2 TS segment validator;
— Conformance software for dynamic services;

[12]

SCHEMA . If an error occurs, the corresponding error message shall be provided; otherwise, the

XLink-resolved and schema-validated MPD document is provided. The details for this step of the MPD

conformance checking are defined in A.3.

Step 3 (schematron validator): gets as an input an XLink-resolved and schema-validated MPD

document and performs schematron validation as defined in ISO/IEC 19757-3 according to the rules

defined in A.4.2. If an error occurs, the corresponding error message shall be provided; otherwise, the

XLink-resolved, schema-validated, and Schematron-validated MPD document is provided. The details

for this step of the MPD conformance checking are defined in A.4.

The following command may be used to validate an MPD document with the chain depicted in Figure 2.

This requires Apache Ant .
ant run –Dinput=ʺfiletovalidate.mpdʺ

The program outputs a message for each step. If an error occurs during one step, the following steps are

not executed.

All conformance tools are available at https:// standards .iso .org/ iso -iec/ 23009/ -2/ ed -3/ en.

5.2 Static MPD conformance
An MPD with MPD@type=ʺstaticʺ shall comply with the rules in 5.1.

In addition, the availability of all resources in the MPD during the MPD@availabilityStartTime and the

MPD@availabilityEndTime shall be checked. A function remoteFileExists($url) may be executed for

each segment that is documented in the MPD. This function shall return true for all Segments in the MPD

during the time interval defined by the MPD@availabilityStartTime and the MPD@availabilityEndTime.

The following snippet shows an example for the remoteFileExists function written in PHP.

5.3 Dynamic MPD conformance
5.3.1 General

To ensure that servers offering a dynamic DASH media presentation adhere to the timing requirements

and that clients are able to properly consume the dynamic presentation without observing unavailable

segments, the DASH conformance software is extended to include and address media presentations

with MPD@type=ʹdynamicʹ. In 5.3, the requirements which go beyond those for static DASH conformance

are listed and a functional description of the conformance software implementation is provided.

[1]

The document is aligned with the guidelines for live services as documented in ISO/IEC TR 23009-3 .

5.3.2 Background and requirements
5.3.2.1 MPD-specific checks

Clients make use of the information in an MPD. Based on an MPD that is fetched at a certain fetch time

FT the client can determine the following information:
a) At any time, WT where WT ≥ FT, a client can determine:

1) the latest available period on the server, denoted by its Period start time PS*;

2) the segment availability start time of any segment at position k within the Period, denoted as

SAST(k);

3) the position of the latest segment that is available on server in the Period, referred to as k*;

4) the URL of the latest segment that is available within this Period;

5) the time when to fetch a new MPD based on the current presentation time, or more specifically,

the greatest segment position k' within this Period that can be constructed by this MPD;

6) the media presentation time within the Representation that synchronizes closest to the live

edge, MPTL;
4 © ISO/IEC 2020 – All rights reserved
---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
ISO/IEC FDIS 23009-2:2020(E)

7) the media presentation time within the Representation that synchronizes to other clients, MPTS.

b) At any time, WT, all segments with availability start time at or before WT and availability end time

at or before WT are accessible.

c) An updated MPD is made available on time, taking into account the minimum update period (MUP)

of the MPD. Note that by not updating the MPD, the existing MPD is validated for another MUP time.

Detailed equations to derive segment availability times are provided in ISO/IEC 23009-1 and

[1]

ISO/IEC TR 23009-3 . When providing an MPD, the content author ensures that the segment availability

times can be derived.
5.3.2.2 MPD times

In order to use the same concepts with different timing and addressing schemes, the following values

are introduced according to ISO/IEC 23009-1:
— the position of the segment in the Period denoted as k with k=1,2,...;
— the MPD start time of the segment at position k, referred to as MST(k);
— the MPD duration of a segment at position k, referred to as MD(k).

Assuming that the wall-clock time at the client is denoted as WT, the client can derive the following

information.
5.3.2.3 General derivation
Using these times, the values from above can be derived as follows.

— The latest Period is the Period for which AST + PS + MD(1) ≤ WT where AST is the value of the MPD@

availabilityStartTime and PS is the PeriodStart as defined in ISO/IEC 23009-1.
— The segment availability start time is obtained as
SAST(k) = AST + PS + MST(k) + MD(k)

— Within this Period, the latest segment available on the server is the segment at the position k* which

results in the greatest value for SAST(k*) and at the same time is smaller than WT.

— The address of the latest segment can be derived using the position information k*. The exact value

depends on the addressing method.

— Within this Period, the greatest segment position k' that can be constructed by this MPD is the one

that results in the greatest value for SAST(k') and at the same time is smaller than FT + MUP.

The media presentation time in a Period is determined for each Representation as the presentation

time value of the media segments minus the value of the @presentationTimeOffset, if present, for each

Representation.

It is further assumed that a segment at position k has an assigned earliest media presentation time EPT(k).

5.3.2.4 Requirements
When receiving an MPD, the DASH client is guaranteed that:

— Each segment at position k in this Period is available prior to the sum of its earliest presentation

time and its duration; SAST(k) ≤ EPT(k) + MD(k).

— If each segment with segment number k is delivered starting at SAST(k) over a constant bitrate channel

with bitrate equal to the value of the @bandwidth attribute, then each sample with presentation time

PT shall be available at the client by the time given by PT + (AST + PS) + MBT + MD(k).

© ISO/IEC 2020 – All rights reserved 5
---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
ISO/IEC FDIS 23009-2:2020(E)

— Each segment in this Period shall be available at least until SAST(k) + TSB + MD(k).

— The MPD can be used to construct and request segments until media time FT + MUP. The greatest

segment position k' that can be constructed by this MPD shall be the one that results in the greatest

value for SAST(k') and at the same time is smaller than FT + MUP. Note that the latest segment may

be significantly shorter in duration than MD(k).

In addition, updates of the MPD shall be consistent according to ISO/IEC 23009-1:2019, 5.4.

5.3.3 Dynamic conformance software design
5.3.3.1 Overview

The implementation of the conformance software for dynamic services requires the implementation of

the requirements in 5.3.2.4. The process is split into two parts:
— the creation of a data set by recording/monitoring a dynamic service;
— the actual conformance checks implementing the checks of the requirements.
5.3.3.2 Data set creation

Two different cases are considered depending on the access bandwidth to the server.

In case 1, it is assumed that the conformance checker is operating with a very high (infinite) access

bandwidth and minimal delay. Then the initial part is as follows.
a) Download and store the MPD and record the fetch time, FT, of the MPD.
b) Determine the following information.

1) The smallest segment availability start time greater than FT of any Segment in any

Representation referred to as SAST .
min

2) The URLs of all segments available at SAST . If multiple segments are available at the same

min
time, determine all of them.

c) For all segments with segment availability, end time greater than FT and smaller than SAST ,

min
generate the URL, issue an HTTP HEAD request, and record the HTTP header.

d) At time SAST issue HTTP GET requests for all segments that become available at this time,

min
record the HTTP headers and store the segments.
