The challenge is finished.

Challenge Overview

The Hercules Player is an application that allows customers to download videos to their computer or device for offline playback, along with streaming playback of videos for online playback.

The Hercules Fog project has stripped out some key portions of the Hercules Player application into a new test application for downloading videos from a server, modifying the manifest, and then playing back on various mobile and TV devices.

The current implementation is C++ and will run on:

  • Windows
  • Linux
  • Mac

A previous challenge has built in most of the MPEG Dash support.  This challenge will formalize those code changes to support the minor functionality that was out of scope in the previous challenge, including:
 

  • VOD recording
  • Logging updates
  • Adaptive bitrate
  • Time sync buffer (tsb) 
  • Culling
