Datasets

Here we offer three datasets. The first dataset conforms to the newest version of the MPEG-DASH standard. The second dataset provides content encoded using Scalable Video Coding (SVC) and provides MPDs according to the newest version of the MPEG-DASH standard. The third dataset was created by Stefan Lederer and is still listed here for compatibility with the VLC Plugin.
The new dataset generated by Florian Bacher can be found here:
