Delivery Multimedia Integration Framework
Appearance
DMIF, or Delivery Multimedia Integration Framework, is a uniform interface (DMIF/Application Interface – DAI) between the application and the transport, that allows the MPEG-4 application developer to stop worrying about that transport. DMIF was defined in MPEG-4 Part 6 (ISO/IEC 14496-6) in 1999.[1][2][3] A single application can run on different transport layers when supported by the right DMIF instantiation. MPEG-4 DMIF supports the following functionalities:
- A transparent MPEG-4 DMIF-application interface irrespective of whether the peer is a remote interactive peer, broadcast or local storage media.
- Control of the establishment of FlexMux channels
- Use of homogeneous networks between interactive peers: IP, ATM, mobile, PSTN, Narrowband ISDN.
- Support for mobile networks, developed together with ITU-T
- UserCommands with acknowledgment messages.
- Management of MPEG-4 Sync Layer information
