Abstract
A method for processing media data includes identifying in a media presentation description (MPD) an indication of a Tuning-In Media Segment. The Tuning-In Media Segment comprises a latest media data for a client device to start with when tuning into an ongoing live streaming service. The latest media data is selected from either a current media segment that is being generated by the ongoing live streaming service or a previous media segment generated by the ongoing live streaming service based on a length of the current media segment. The MPD is stored by the client device prior to the client device tuning into the ongoing live streaming service. The method further includes performing a conversion between a visual media data and a bitstream according to the MPD.
