In such a case, several compression instances SHOULD be used. Thus, querying the compression property of the track media fragments will return different values for each track fragment. Note: it is possible to use an extendedMIME type as the value for this property, see [RFC 4281].

In such a case, several compression instances SHOULD be used. Thus, querying the compression property of the track media fragments will return different values for each track fragment.   The indicator is a pair of values, separated by a comma. The first is a URI that identifies the naming convention used for the second parameter, which is a string.  For some container files, the format parameter can also carry an extended MIME type to document this; see [RFC 4281] for one such instance.

Updated the compression Statement.

For the examples; I have added a link to the following section, which 
contains the examples.

5.1.3.1 Examples for the compression property
