Verifying an MPEG-DASH MPD file conformance

This section describes how to verify the conformance of an MPEG-DASH MPD file with the online MPD validator.

1. Go the MPD validator page.
   The tool page can be found at http://www-itec.uni-klu.ac.at/dash under the Tools menu.
2. Use the web-based tool to check the MPD file:
   • If the MPD passes the validation process, the tool returns Your DASH-MPD is VALID.
   • Otherwise, the tool returns Your DASH-MPD is NOT VALID with error messages.

   library_booksNote: When an AudioChannelConfiguration element is included in the Representation element to describe the channel layout of a Dolby Digital Plus track, this errors message appears due to the Dolby specific URI. Ignore this error message.
