Hi Alvaro,

you should be able to generate the mpd file for DASH

Yes, but how? ffmpeg proved an easy way to generate webm-dash-manifests,
but I cannot figure out how to use it to include the MPEG segments.

And MPEG-DASH manifest creation afterwards I couldn't figure out at all,
only with at least remuxing the files.

Best regards
Stefan

DASH is codec agnostic, so if you already have or generate the ts segments for 
HLS, you should be able to generate the mpd file for DASH to play back the same 
segments you would use for HLS. I have used the m4s segments, and I have seen a 
common instance of lip sync issues that I have never see using mpeg.ts 
segments. In my opinion, CMAF using mp4 segments is over-rated, and heavily 
promoted by commercial encoding and streaming engines like Wowza.

Hi Clay,

for me storage is not a major concern (the total number of videos will
not be that high), but device compatibility is (including older
devices). Apple does not seem to support CMAF on older devices, only
MPEG-TS, therefore I'll stick to MPEG-TS. There are also some approaches
like mux.js that are intended to remux the stream as needed in the
browser, but I rather stick to MP4/MPEG2-TS.

I have not played with ffmpeg-python yet, but good to know. I started
writing a PHP script that generates a ffmpeg command-line for
transcoding a specific video (in fact multiple, because ffmpeg got
killed when I tried to transcode to all formats at once: my system ran
out of it's 64 GB memory...).

I still couldn't figure out how generate a single DASH manifest for webm
and mp4 files. That should be possible, because dash.js added support
for that in 4.0 and shaka seems to have always supported that.

Best regards
Stefan

Hi Steve

Have you looked into CMAF for this solution?  I am also working on some
complex transcoding and packaging actions for HLS ABR delivery.  I am
looking into using CMAF to reduce the overall storage footprint (gpu/cpu
threads still cost a lot more than storage).  Also, I am experimenting
with ffmpeg-python (https://github.com/kkroening/ffmpeg-python), have
you (or anyone reading this) played around with it?

*I apologize to the forum for the accidental prior message (inadvertent
click :-P)

Liberty & Regard,
