Description
[REQUIRED] Use case description
We are looking to field an SGAI based ads infrastructure to power interstitial experiences on our surfaces. SGAI is currently supported on all other major industry players we use (including AVPlayer, ShakaPlayer), except for Exoplayer.
The old SGAI standards of requiring xlink resolution seems to have been pivoted away from due to implementation complexities. Therefore, I would request Exoplayer add support for the new tags that take its place, and is present in the MPEG DASH XSD today (Insert/ReplacePresentation: https://github.com/MPEGGroup/DASHSchema/blob/6th-Ed/DASH-MPD.xsd#L228)
Proposed solution
Exoplayer adds support for the new MPEG DASH tags to help drive Ads and other interstitial content.
