SMPTE RP 227-2010 (R2016)

This document describes the protocols for carrying video elementary streams conforming to the SMPTE VC-1 Simple, Main and Advanced Profile over MPEG-2 Transport Streams and MPEG-2 Program Streams. This document does not describe the video bit stream syntax. It describes the encapsulation and signaling of the video bit stream using the respective transport protocols. The document builds on the synchronization layer specified by MPEG-2 Systems, which is the fundamental mechanism for ensuring Audio/Video/Data synchronization. However, this document does not cover the policies that must be adopted at a transmission system head-end to implement a given quality level of Audio/Video/Data synchronization. Any field of the MPEG-2 Transport Stream packet header or MPEG-2 PES packet header that is not mentioned in this document shall keep its default meaning as defined in ISO/IEC 13818–1:2000.
