(TV Tech) : Video Industry Partners Update DASH Content Conformance Validation

Posted on December 4, 2023 in ATSC News

WASHINGTON—The Joint Content Conformance Partners (JCCP), a jointly funded group supported by ATSC together with DASH-IF, the DVB Project, the Consumer Technology Association Web Application Video Ecosystem (WAVE) Project and the HbbTV Association, has released an improved, widely available tool that validates conformance of DASH content to relevant media specifications, the Advanced Television Systems Committee said today.

The specification, developed collaboratively by the five industry bodies, ensures DASH content conformance, which is important for interoperability.

The DASH-IF Conformance Tool, available as either an online service or open-source software, was launched more than a decade ago and has been continuously updated and extended to test against relevant specifications from other bodies, ATSC said.

A joint project undertaken over the past two years has improved the tool, making it more reliable and accessible. Along with DASH content conformance, the new tool has options to check for CMAF and WAVE requirements, and for HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) requirements as well, according to the ATSC.
