Task 3: dash.js Playback (2 marks) The web-based media player application, based on dash.js (v4.5.0), should retrieve the list of the uploaded videos available on your web server. You can access the player using your browser using the following URL: https://reference.dashif.org/dash.js/v4.5.0/samples/dash-if-reference-player/index.html The player should allow on-demand playback of previously uploaded videos in Task 2 (https://media.cheggcdn.com/media/a44/a449e983-517a-49b5-bf1a-231028ebd6d8/phpNwuY4t). It should support adaptive stream switching (termed Adaptive BitRate logic, i.e., ABR) that means it adaptively chooses the most suitable quality for the next video streamlet to be downloaded based on your bandwidth estimation algorithm, while playing the current streamlet. The subtasks for this task are: 1. Retrieve a list of videos available on your server and download the MPEG-DASH XML-formatted playlist file for the selected video (on-demand). 2. Read the playlist file and schedule retrieval of individual streamlets on-the-fly. 3. Switch the rendering of one video streamlet to another based on your ABR algorithm.
