scope:

This part of ISO/IEC 14496 specifies the Delivery Layer of ISO/IEC 14496, which allows applications to transparently access and view multimedia streams whether the source of the streams is located on an interactive remote end-system, the streams are available on broadcast media or they are on storage media.

In this part of ISO/IEC 14496, the following aspects are covered:

DMIF communication architecture

DMIF-Application Interface (DAI) definition

URL semantic to locate and make available the multimedia streams

DMIF Default Signalling Protocol (DDSP) for remote interactive scenarios, and its related variations using existing native network signaling protocols

Information flows for player access to streams on remote interactive end-systems, from broadcast media or from storage media
