§3.1

Initialization headers

A CMAF header is a sequence of CMAF constrained ISO BMFF boxes that do not reference any media samples, but are associated with a CMAF track and are necessary for initializing the decoding of the subsequent CMAF fragments.

The header for a given MOQT Track MUST be packaged by encoding the header using [BASE64] and then inserting that payload as the value of the Initialization data "initData" field in the catalog entry for that Track.

This is one section of CMSF- a CMAF compliant implementation of MOQT Streaming Format, rendered per-section for quick reference and citation. The authoritative text is draft-ietf-moq-cmsf-00 at the IETF.
