    hi All
    I use "dashcast -v ed.mp4 -vres 720x480 -npts -live-media".
    With mp4client, it played well, but dash.js can't play it.
    So gpac is not compatible with dash.js?

    Thanks

    Hi Lance,

    The problem is not with the player, but with dashcast.
    Dashcast currently has issues, and gpac is more tolerant with those issues than dash.js.
    Best regards
    JC

    Hi Lance,

    DashCast should be compatible with dash.js 1.0. See on our forums and the dash.js ones for people using it live.

    Also remember that dash.js only supports a subset of MPEG-DASH. And relies on the browser media capabilities which are rather limited.

    What are your dash.js version and error message?

    When describing a potential bug, please give more information if you wish to get help:

    Kind regards,

    hi Romain

    Thanks for your reply. I'm using chrome and dash.js 1.0.
    I did a search in the forum and seems someone already got the solution.

    I add some code to add @Start in Period, the dataset can be played by dash.js now
