Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees
established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information
technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as
an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 14496-10:2008 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1,
Information technology, Subcommittee SC 29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia
information in collaboration with ITU-T.

Part 10:
Advanced Video Coding
AMENDMENT 1: Multiview Video Coding
In 0.6, add the following paragraph after the paragraph that starts with “Scalable video coding”:
Multiview video coding is specified in Annex H allowing the construction of bitstreams that represent multiple
views. Similar to scalable video coding, bitstreams that represent multiple views may also contain
sub-bitstreams that conform to this Specification. For temporal bitstream scalability, i.e., the presence of a
sub-bitstream with a smaller temporal sampling rate than the bitstream, complete access units are removed
from the bitstream when deriving the sub-bitstream. In this case, high-level syntax and inter prediction
reference pictures in the bitstream are constructed accordingly. For view bitstream scalability, i.e. the
presence of a sub-bitstream with fewer views than the bitstream, NAL units are removed from the bitstream
when deriving the sub-bitstream. In this case, inter-view prediction, i.e., the prediction of one view signal by
data of another view signal, is typically used for efficient coding.

In 0.7, add the following paragraph after the paragraph that starts with “Annex G specifies”:
Annex H specifies multiview video coding (MVC). The reader is referred to Annex H for the entire decoding
process for MVC, which is specified there with references being made to clauses 2-9 and Annexes A-E.
Subclause H.10 specifies one profile for MVC (Multiview High).

In 7.3.1, NAL unit syntax, replace the following row of the syntax table:
 nal_unit_header_svc_extension( ) /* specified in Annex G */ All
with:
 svc_extension_flag All u(1)
 if( svc_extension_flag )
  nal_unit_header_svc_extension( ) /* specified in Annex G */ All
 else
  nal_unit_header_mvc_extension( ) /* specified in Annex H */

Before the paragraph that begins with “rbsp_byte[ i ]”, insert the following paragraph:
svc_extension_flag indicates whether a nal_unit_header_svc_extension( ) or
nal_unit_header_mvc_extension( ) will follow next in the syntax structure.
The value of svc_extension_flag shall be equal to 1 for coded video sequences conforming to one or more
profiles specified in Annex G. Decoders conforming to one or more profiles specified in Annex G shall ignore
NAL units for which nal_unit_type is equal to 14 or 20 and for which svc_extension_flag is equal to 0.
The value of svc_extension_flag shall be equal to 0 for coded video sequences conforming to one or more
profiles specified in Annex H. Decoders conforming to one or more profiles specified in Annex H shall ignore
NAL units for which nal_unit_type is equal to 14 or 20 and for which svc_extension_flag is equal to 1.

In 7.4.2.1.1, Sequence parameter set data semantics, replace the semantics for reserved_zero_4bits with the
following:
constraint_set4_flag shall be equal to 0. Decoders shall ignore the value of constraint_set4_flag.

svc_vui_parameters_extension( ) is not present. svc_vui_parameters_present_flag equal to 1 indicates that
the syntax structure svc_vui_parameters_extension( ) is present.
bit_equal_to_one shall be equal to 1.
mvc_vui_parameters_present_flag equal to 0 indicates that the syntax structure
mvc_vui_parameters_extension( ) is not present. mvc_vui_parameters_present_flag equal to 1 indicates that
the syntax structure mvc_vui_parameters_extension( ) is present.
additional_extension2_flag equal to 0 specifies that the syntax elements additional_extension2_data_flag
are not present within the subset sequence parameter set RBSP syntax structure. additional_extension2_flag
shall be equal to 0 in bitstreams conforming to this Recommendation | International Standard. The value of 1
for additional_extension2_flag is reserved for future use by ITU-T | ISO/IEC. Decoders shall ignore all data
that follow the value 1 for additional_extension2_flag in a subset sequence parameter set NAL unit.
additional_extension2_data_flag may have any value.

Add a new subclause 7.4.2.12 as follows:
7.4.2.12 Prefix NAL unit RBSP semantics

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of
ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees
established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC
technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information
technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of the joint technical committee is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting. Publication as
an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the national bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 14496-10:2008 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1,
Information technology, Subcommittee SC 29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia
information in collaboration with ITU-T.

Part 10:
Advanced Video Coding
AMENDMENT 1: Multiview Video Coding
In 0.6, add the following paragraph after the paragraph that starts with “Scalable video coding”:
Multiview video coding is specified in Annex H allowing the construction of bitstreams that represent multiple views.
Similar to scalable video coding, bitstreams that represent multiple views may also contain sub-bitstreams that conform
to this specification. For temporal bitstream scalability, i.e., the presence of a sub-bitstream with a smaller temporal
sampling rate than the bitstream, complete access units are removed from the bitstream when deriving the sub-bitstream.
In this case, high-level syntax and inter prediction reference pictures in the bitstream are constructed accordingly. For
view bitstream scalability, i.e. the presence of a sub-bitstream with fewer views than the bitstream, NAL units are
removed from the bitstream when deriving the sub-bitstream. In this case, inter-view prediction, i.e., the prediction of one
view signal by data of another view signal, is typically used for efficient coding.

In 0.7, add the following paragraph after the paragraph that starts with “Annex G specifies”:
Annex H specifies multiview video coding (MVC). The reader is referred to Annex H for the entire decoding process for
MVC, which is specified there with references being made to clauses 2-9 and Annexes A-E. Subclause H.10 specifies
one profile for MVC (Multiview High).

nal_unit_header_svc_extension( ) /* specified in Annex G */
with:
nal_unit_header_extension( ) /* specified in Annexes G and H */
