Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH)

Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH) is a technology that allows video content to automatically adjust its quality based on your internet connection. When you stream a video, DASH divides it into small segments encoded at various quality levels. As you watch, it dynamically selects the best quality segment that your connection can handle without buffering, ensuring smooth playback. This process happens seamlessly, providing viewers with the highest possible quality possible at any moment, even if your internet speed fluctuates. DASH improves your viewing experience by balancing video quality and playback stability.
