In this paper, we investigate deployment options of SVC for Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) with a special focus on scalability options, which are relevant for dynamic adaptation, especially in wireless and mobile environments. We evaluate the performance of SVC with respect to spatial and quality scalability options and compare it to non-scalable Advanced Video Coding (AVC). Performance evaluations are performed for various encoder implementations with high-definition (1080p) content. We show that a hybrid approach with multiple independent SVC bitstreams can have advantages in storage requirements at comparable rate-distortion performance.}, keywords = {scalable video coding; HTTP streaming; adaptation; high-definition; hybrid SVC-DASH}, language = {EN}, location = {Madrid, Spain}, pdf = {https://www.itec.aau.at/bib/files/Hybrid_SVC-DASH.pdf}, talkdate = {2013.06.04}, talktype = {registered} }
