Having to download the whole file before playing it back is kind of the exception, isn't it ? As the article says, HLS or DASH are specifically about not having to suffer through buffering by auto-dialing quality down, otherwise you can also start viewing during download with the browser <video> tag, over FTP with VLC, or even with peer to peer software like eMule or torrents ! I'm not sure what "real" streaming would even be ? (It probably wouldn't be over HTTP...) |
