Folks, The three H.264/AVC related payload formats, namely, draft-ietf-avt-rtp-rfc3984bis-12, draft-ietf-avt-rtp-svc-27, and draft-ietf-avt-rtp-h264-rcdo-08, are all at the AUTH48 stage. The RFC-Editor has found the following problem: In draft-ietf-avt-rtp-rfc3984bis-12, the definition of the max-dpb media parameter refers to the MaxDPB that was defined the first version of the H.264/AVC spec, but not any more in the latest version (the 2010 version). The parameter in the latest H.264/AVC version corresponding to MaxDPB is MaxDpbMbs, and the unit of the new parameter (i.e., macroblocks) is different from the original one (i.e. 1024 bytes). The problem applies also to the SVC payload format, the RCDO payload format, and H.241. A solution has been found and agreed, involving rfc3984bis authors and some key people related to H.264/AVC (e.g., Gary Sullivan and Heiko Schwarz) and H.241 (e.g., Stephen Botzko and Patrick Luthi). Furthermore, we have found that there are also a couple of places that need fixes due to similar changes from the initial version of H.264/AVC to the latest version. Per Roni’s suggestion, I am sending in below the changes to draft-ietf-avt-rtp-rfc3984bis-12 for review by the Payload and AVTcore WGs. It seems that exactly the same changes are needed to draft-ietf-avt-rtp-h264-rcdo-08 (co-authors of this draft may confirm), and similar but slightly different changes are needed to draft-ietf-avt-rtp-svc-27. Since the drafts are at the AUTH48 stage, please provide comments by Monday, March 21, if any. Many thanks! BR, YK ------------------------------------Start of suggested changes -------------------------------------- Section 8.1: OLD: profile-level-id: A base16 [7] (hexadecimal) representation of the following three bytes in the sequence parameter set NAL unit is specified in [1]: 1) profile_idc, 2) a byte herein referred to as profile-iop, composed of the values of constraint_set0_flag, constraint_set1_flag,constraint_set2_flag, constraint_set3_flag, and reserved_zero_4bits in bit- significance order, starting from the most-significant bit, and 3) level_idc. Note that reserved_zero_4bits is required to be equal to 0 in [1], but other values for it may be specified in the future by ITU-T or ISO/IEC. NEW: profile-level-id: A base16 [7] (hexadecimal) representation of the following three bytes in the sequence parameter set NAL unit is specified in [1]: 1) profile_idc, 2) a byte herein referred to as profile-iop, composed of the values of constraint_set0_flag, constraint_set1_flag,constraint_set2_flag, constraint_set3_flag, constraint_set4_flag, constraint_set5_flag, and reserved_zero_2bits in bit-significance order, starting from the most-significant bit, and 3) level_idc. Note that reserved_zero_2bits is required to be equal to 0 in [1], but other values for it may be specified in the future by ITU-T or ISO/IEC. OLD: For example, in the table above, profile_idc equal to 58 (Extended) with profile-iop equal to 11xx0000 indicates the same sub-profile corresponding to profile_idc equal to 42 (Baseline) with profile-iop equal to x1xx0000. Note that other combinations of profile_idc and profile-iop (not listed in Table 5) may represent a sub-profile equivalent to the common subset of coding tools for more than one profile. Note also that a decoder conforming to a certain profile may be able to decode bitstreams conforming to other profiles. For example, a decoder conforming to the High 4:4:4 profile, at a certain level, must be able to decode bitstreams conforming to the Constrained Baseline, Main, High, High 10, or High 4:2:2 profile at the same or a lower level. NEW: For example, in the table above, profile_idc equal to 58 (Extended) with profile-iop equal to 11xx0000 indicates the same sub-profile corresponding to profile_idc equal to 42 (Baseline) with profile-iop equal to x1xx0000. Note that other combinations of profile_idc and profile-iop (not listed in Table 5) may represent a sub-profile equivalent to the common subset of coding tools for more than one profile. Note also that a decoder conforming to a certain profile may be able to decode bitstreams conforming to other profiles. OLD: If the profile-level-id parameter is used for capability exchange or session setup procedure, it indicates the subset of coding tools, which is equal to the default sub-profile, that the codec supports for both receiving and sending. NEW: If the profile-level-id parameter is used for capability exchange or session setup, it indicates the subset of coding tools, which is equal to the default sub-profile, that the codec supports for both receiving and sending. OLD: max-cpb: The value of max-cpb is an integer indicating the maximum coded picture buffer size in units of 1000 bits for the VCL HRD parameters (see A.3.1, item i of [1]) and in units of 1200 bits for the NAL HRD parameters (see A.3.1, item j of [1]). NEW: max-cpb: The value of max-cpb is an integer indicating the maximum coded picture buffer size. For Constrained Baseline, Baseline, Main and Extended profiles, the unit is 1000 bits for the VCL HRD parameters and 1200 bits for the NAL HRD parameters. For High, High 10, High 4:2:2, High 4:4:4 Predictive, High 10 Intra, High 4:2:2 Intra, High 4:4:4 Intra and CAVLC 4:4:4 Intra profiles, the unit is cpbBrVclFactor bits for the VCL HRD and cpbBrNalFactor bits for the NAL HRD parameters. OLD: max-dpb: The value of max-dpb is an integer indicating the maximum decoded picture buffer size in units of 1024 bytes. The max- dpb parameter signals that the receiver has more memory than the minimum amount of decoded picture buffer memory required by the signaled highest level conveyed in the value of the profile-level-id parameter or the max-recv-level parameter. When max-dpb is signaled, the receiver MUST be able to decode NAL unit streams that conform to the signaled highest level, with the exception that the MaxDPB value in Table A-1 of [1] for the signaled highest level is replaced with the value of max-dpb. Consequently, a receiver that signals max-dpb MUST be capable of storing the following number of decoded frames, complementary field pairs, and non-paired fields in its decoded picture buffer: Min(1024 * max-dpb / ( PicWidthInMbs * FrameHeightInMbs * 256 * ChromaFormatFactor ), 16) PicWidthInMbs, FrameHeightInMbs, and ChromaFormatFactor are defined in [1]. The value of max-dpb MUST be greater than or equal to the value of MaxDPB given in Table A-1 of [1] for the highest level. Senders MAY use this knowledge to construct coded video streams with improved compression. NEW: max-dpb: The value of max-dpb is an integer indicating the maximum decoded picture buffer size in units of 8/3 macroblocks. The max- dpb parameter signals that the receiver has more memory than the minimum amount of decoded picture buffer memory required by the signaled highest level conveyed in the value of the profile-level-id parameter or the max-recv-level parameter. When max-dpb is signaled, the receiver MUST be able to decode NAL unit streams that conform to the signaled highest level, with the exception that the MaxDpbMbs value in Table A-1 of [1] for the signaled highest level is replaced with the value of max-dpb * 3 / 8. Consequently, a receiver that signals max-dpb MUST be capable of storing the following number of decoded frames, complementary field pairs, and non-paired fields in its decoded picture buffer: Min(max-dpb * 3 / 8 / ( PicWidthInMbs * FrameHeightInMbs), 16) Wherein PicWidthInMbs and FrameHeightInMbs are defined in [1]. The value of max-dpb MUST be greater than or equal to the value of MaxDpbMbs * 3 / 8, wherein the value of MaxDpbMbs is given in Table A-1 of [1] for the highest level. Senders MAY use this knowledge to construct coded video streams with improved compression. OLD: max-br: The value of max-br is an integer indicating the maximum video bitrate in units of 1000 bits per second for the VCL HRD parameters (see A.3.1, item i of [1]) and in units of 1200 bits per second for the NAL HRD parameters (see A.3.1, item j of [1]). … For example, if a receiver signals capability for Level 1.2 with max-br equal to 1550, this indicates a maximum video bitrate of 1550 kbits/sec for VCL HRD parameters, a maximum video bitrate of 1860 kbits/sec for NAL HRD parameters, and a CPB size of 4036458 bits (1550000 / 384000 * 1000 * 1000). NEW: max-br: The value of max-br is an integer indicating the maximum video bitrate. For Constrained Baseline, Baseline, Main and Extended profiles, the unit is 1000 bits per second for the VCL HRD parameters and 1200 bits per second for the NAL HRD parameters. For High, High 10, High 4:2:2, High 4:4:4 Predictive, High 10 Intra, High 4:2:2 Intra, High 4:4:4 Intra and CAVLC 4:4:4 Intra profiles, the unit is cpbBrVclFactor bits per second for the VCL HRD and cpbBrNalFactor bits per second for the NAL HRD parameters. … For example, if a receiver signals capability for Main profile Level 1.2 with max-br equal to 1550, this indicates a maximum video bitrate of 1550 kbits/sec for VCL HRD parameters, a maximum video bitrate of 1860 kbits/sec for NAL HRD parameters, and a CPB size of 4036458 bits (1550000 / 384000 * 1000 * 1000). ------------------------------------End of suggested changes --------------------------------------
