The BBC R&D team provides streaming media test content for adaptive bit rate systems. Streams include VOD, live and low-latency versions, all conformant to CMAF. Live streams help clients interact with server while Low Latency reduces latency to broadcast speeds. Updated features such as webcasts, languages & access services improve interoperability & protocol capabilities. Clients can verify synchronisation between components.The BBC R&D team provides streaming media test content for adaptive bit rate systems.

Codec licensing has become more complex due to web streaming requirements, leading to multiple patent pools and royalty-free alternatives such as VP8, VP9 and AV1. Patent holders are focusing on services and content to recoup costs while streaming services are avoiding royalties with the CENC and CMAF technologies. HEVC adoption is slow due to an unsuitable licensing model.Codec licensing has become more complex due to web streaming requirements, leading to multiple patent pools and royalty-free alternatives such as VP8, VP9 and AV1.
