Worked on the shaka-project/shaka-player repository to deliver DASH Manifest SIDX support, focusing on robust parsing for external SIDX files and improved handling of RepresentationIndex with varying BaseURL or sourceURL. Enhanced the parsing logic in JavaScript to detect and resolve external index URIs, ensuring accurate segment indexing and reducing playback failures in edge cases. Improved base64 decoding by normalizing padding, which prevents errors during segment fetches. Added comprehensive unit tests to validate correct URI and range usage, contributing to easier maintenance and reliability. Collaborated with team members to increase test coverage and code clarity, demonstrating skills in DASH and video streaming.
