Just a small update. I've been reminded that MPEG-DASH playlist files normally use the MPD file extension, with M3U8 more frequently used for HLS playlist files. No major difference to the end user, MPEG-DASH is an international standard, HLS (HTTP Live Streaming) is a proprietary standard designed by Apple. Both are streaming formats.
