Hi Christer,

Thanks for the quick response, we really appreciate your time.

So, let me elaborate a bit:

>> First, regarding RFC 8450, that specification was probably never reviewed by the SDP directorate, so I can't really comment on that. But, I see that the RFC e.g., says nothing about whether the SDP indicates sending or receiving capabilities.

Ok, I understand that RFC 8450 might not be entirely clear or well written on the SDP part.

>> Second, nobody mandates you to use SDP, and most part of the spec is protocol independent. But, the "SDP Offer/Answer" section describes the SDP offer/answer procedures, *IF* you choose to use that mechanism for negotiating the session.

Ok. That I understand. In our case, SDP as the session protocol is not critical, but still a nice to have. Do you agree? Or do you recommend we remove the SDP offer/answer section?

What we do need to say is how to map parameters into an SDP-compliant format description, for the same reasons as RFC 8450 and many other video payload RFC's (VP8, VP9, H.264/AVC, H.265/HEVC, etc). This allows using many other session negotiation protocols that rely on the SDP description.

>> Third ....

I believe what is very important to explain is that all of our parameters are declarative, meaning that they describe exact bitstream properties, and not receiver capabilities. The SDP parameters can be used to communicate between sender/receiver what they wish to exchange before sending actual payload, but none of these parameters or values are "downgradable" or "inclusive capability sets". XS does not have such concepts, as it is a low-complexity codec, intended primarily to replace uncompressed video streams.

Somehow, this raises the following:

X.1 Generic SDP Considerations
  I believe here we explain that parameters are declarative and represent bitstream/payload values/settings. So both sides can use these to indicate what the payload will look like.

X.2.  Generating the Initial SDP Offer
  Not much to say here. As I understand an SDP session can be initiated from either receiver or sender sides? So, they just send a valid media description of the content they want to exchange. If either side cannot handle certain payload settings, then it should reject the offer (or answer). An offerer just sends what it wants to receive or send.

X.3.  Generating the SDP Answer
  I don't think there is anything special to mention here? The answerer takes the declarative parameters and either accepts or rejects the session. It should NOT modify the offer in any way.

X.4.  Offerer Processing of the SDP Answer
  I don't think there is anything special to mention here? If the answer accepted the offer, then the stream can start.

X.5.  Modifying the Session
  Modifying the session is possible, but this is very implementation specific. Basically, modifying a session is very similar to creation of a new session. Both sides should agree on the payload they will exchange.


I'm sorry to drag this out, but I think that having this conversation by email is more efficient than posting drafts 😊 I appreciate your feedback.

Tim.

Hi,

Second, nobody mandates you to use SDP, and most part of the spec is protocol independent. But, the "SDP Offer/Answer" section describes the SDP offer/answer procedures, *IF* you choose to use that mechanism for negotiating the session.

Third, I don't think you need very much text. The important thing is to say what is placed in offers and answers, whether there are constraints when generating the answer, and whether there are constraints when it comes to modifying the session. And, you do NOT  need to specify HOW to modify a session, but whether there are payload-specific constraints when doing.

Regards,

Christer

Hi Christer,

I'm a little bit stuck in how to resolve and address your comments. On one hand I understand that we want the text to be clear, but on the other hand we do not want to repeat SDP specifics too much. SDP is just one way to negotiate a session, and in the case of XS it is not the most commonly used one. XS is not really intended for the classical video-call case, but rather to stream high-quality video content in a professional environment. It can be used for video conferencing, but better suited codecs exist for that use-case.

However, what is important to lay out correctly is the mapping of the media parameters into the a=fmtp field of SDP, because this is actually used by many other protocols (so, just the media description part of SDP is used).

Originally, we based our draft text on RFC 8450 (VC-2 HQ RTP Payload). In that respect, what is written there kind of fits exactly what we want with XS. Given that this is a published RFC, we are puzzeled a bit as to why our draft would need to elaborate so extensively on SDP. For sure, we'd like to allow SDP offer/answer negotiation with XS. But this is very simple: each side tells the other side what it supports, and that's it. In XS the parameters are declarative, meaning (at least that's what we want to express) that each parameter is represents an exact value and is not "inclusive" into a range of lesser values. In other words, the other side cannot expect that a "lesser" value of a parameter can work.

Your proposed structure is just to elaborate and out of scope. As such, I would ask you to consider the example of RFC 8450 (where the use-case and purpose matches that of our draft). For example: Why do we need to state anything specific on "Modifying the Session"? Isn't this layed out by SDP on how to modify a session? There's nothing specific to be put in our draft (we do not want to prevent, not suggest this functionality).

I hope you can understand our difficulty with your remarks and comments. Our proposal as such is to keep the text about SDP very short and simple. The RTP Payload draft can be used with SDP, but it's certainly not the only way.

I will be preparing an updated draft which tries to be very minimal on the SDP specifics. Unless anything is technically wrong, I really hope you can agree to it and move forward with the publication process.

Best regards,
Tim.

In SDP Offer/Answer, the default is to indicate what you are willing to RECEIVE :)

Typically your receiving capabilities also implicitly indicate what you are able to send. For example, if I am indicating that I am willing to receive codec X it normally means that I am also able to send codec X.

 But, there are cases where that is not true, especially when it comes to video codes where you typically have more parameters associated with the codec, and one needs to explicitly indicate sending capabilities.

Wouldn't it be a matter of implementation whether the receiver accepts an offer (note well, the receiver), and attempts to decode a stream on a "best effort" basis, keeping in mind that the stream itself includes additional means to identify required capabilities necessary for a successful decode.

I think it is fine to say that unrecognized parameters shall be ignored. It is then up to future specifications to worry about backward compatibility, rather than this specification worrying about forward compatibility.

These kind of things need to be specified. I don't think it needs to be forbidden to try to modify something, because there could be text that strongly recommends against doing it.
