Problem description
Querying the network for 'maximum downstream media bit rate' could be interpreted as:
- the network bandwidth (maximum achievable throughput) for that device connection.
- the network throughput to that device connection at the time of the request
- the network throughput to that device connection estimated for the next DASH/HLS segment (e.g. 4-second forecast). Note that DASH calculates the next sequence representation one-at-a-time, not for the whole manifest in one go.
- the network throughput to that device connection estimated for the entire video session (namely the value of the
mediaPresentationDuration in the manifest, e.g. a 30 second or 5 minute forecast)
Expected action
Clarify which of the four is the correct definition in the description, and clarify the name 'maximum downstream media bit rate' as required (e.g. `Current maximum downstream media bit rate')
