Consumer audio/video equipment - Digital interface - Part 8: Transmission of ITU-R BT.601 style digital video data

IEC 61883-8:2008 specifies a protocol for the transport of uncompressed or compressed video data in the 4:2:2 format of recommendation ITU-R BT.601 (including compatible extensions to this format for the higher and lower resolutions of other commonly used video resolutions) over high performance serial bus, as specified by IEEE Std 1394-1995 as amended by IEEE Std 1394a-2000 and IEEE Std 1394b-2002 (collectively IEEE 1394). The data formats for the encapsulation of video data are compatible with those specified by IEC 61883-1. Associated audio data, if any, should be formatted as specified by IEC 61883-6.

Matériel audio/vidéo grand public - Interface numérique - Partie 8: Transmission de données vidéonumériques de style UIT-R BT.601

L'IEC 91883-8:2008 spécifie un protocole pour le transport de données vidéo compressées ou non compressées au format 4:2:2 de la recommandation UIT-R BT.601 (y compris les extensions compatibles de ce format pour les résolutions supérieures et inférieures des autres résolutions vidéo couramment utilisées) sur le bus série à haute performance, comme cela est spécifié par l'IEEE Std 1394-1995, amendée par l'IEEE Std 1394a-2000 et l'IEEE Std 1394b-2002 (collectivement l'IEEE 1394). Les formats de données pour l'encapsulation des données vidéo sont compatibles avec ceux spécifiés par l'IEC 61883-1. Il convient, le cas échéant, de formater les données audio associées comme cela est spécifié dans l'IEC 61883-6.
De nombreux formats vidéo couramment utilisés ne sont pas pris en charge par l'IEC 61883, par exemple MPEG-4, le format Windows Media (WMF) et le format utilisé dans les applications de navigation automobile. La prise en charge de la totalité ou de la majeure partie de ces formats dans les dispositifs de rendu nécessite la mise en œuvre de plusieurs codecs vidéo. Il s'agit d'une tâche superflue qui peut être évitée si le dispositif source effectue une conversion au format 4:2:2 de l'UIT-R BT.601 et, si nécessaire, une compression des données avec un codec pris en charge par tous les dispositifs de destination. Un autre avantage est que les informations d'affichage à l'écran (OSD, On-Screen Display) peuvent être mélangées avec des données vidéo avant transmission au dispositif de rendu.
Etant donné que le format 4:2:2 de l'UIT-R BT.601 est largement utilisé en interne dans le matériel AV actuel, la présente spécification permet une intégration directe de l'IEEE 1394 dans ces dispositifs et ouvre des marchés dont les scénarios d'utilisation incluent des sources vidéo uniques qui transmettent vers un ou plusieurs écrans vidéo, par exemple:
– la vidéo électronique STB ou DVD grand public rendue sur plusieurs affichages domestiques;
– la navigation et le divertissement automobiles; et
– le divertissement aéronautique en vol.
Par souci d'interopérabilité et pour limiter la complexité de mise en œuvre, il est essentiel que la spécification fournisse les éléments suivants:
– une liste contrôlée par la 1394 Trade Association de codecs de compression; et
– au moins une référence à un codec de compression vidéo.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consen
