title: Why Do I need Dash.js for streaming MPEG DASH videos?
body: <p>I'm new with html 5 adaptive streaming and information out there is quite conflicting. I want to create an test environment on my windows server cloud streaming a 2hours h264 file and play on my local computer with an html5 player.</p>
  
  <p>Question:
  Why Do I need Dash.js to play the Mpeg dash video?
  Is Dash.js something I have to install in the server(sounds obvious) or client(sounds weird)?</p>
