Information technology — Multimedia application format (MPEG-A) — Part 11: Stereoscopic video application format
ISO/IEC 23000-11:2009 specifies a file format which is capable of storage, interchange, management, editing, and presentation of stereoscopic video contents based on the ISO base media file format. ISO/IEC 23000-11:2009 specifies the following: the file type brand for stereoscopic video contents; four stereoscopic video contents composition types, which are widely used and suitable for the 3D mobile display; the file structure, which is capable of storage with a single video track or two video tracks for stereoscopic contents; the stereoscopic video media information, which includes the visual type information of signaling stereoscopic content composition types, and the stereo_mono_change information for the identification of each fragment in stereo-monoscopic mixed contents; the stereoscopic camera and display information, which provides camera, display and visual safety information for stereoscopic contents; the track reference type, which tells the track of indicating primary and secondary view sequences in case of using two video tracks for stereoscopic contents; the item location, which provides a location of stereoscopic fragments in stereoscopic video contents. ISO/IEC 23000-11:2009 provides the overall structure for storing pure stereoscopic video contents and also stereo-monoscopic mixed contents with the stereoscopic-related information in mobile environments.

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.
ISO/IEC 23000-11 was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology,
Subcommittee SC 29, Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia information.
ISO/IEC 23000 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information technology — Multimedia
application format (MPEG-A):
⎯ Part 1: Purpose for multimedia application formats [Technical Report]
⎯ Part 2: MPEG music player application format
⎯ Part 3: MPEG photo player application format
⎯ Part 4: Musical slide show application format

Introduction
In today’s technological arena, there is an abundance of digital content for digital image machinery such as
laptops, cell-phones, digital cameras, and mobile devices. Stereoscopic video contents provide users with an
experience of natural three-dimensional scenes, which are displayed using acquisition and generation
techniques. The market for applying stereoscopic video contents on such devices is taking shape and
maturing. Stereoscopic laptops, mobile phones, digital TVs, and multimedia devices are already on the
market; however, what seems to be required for an immersive 3D market is a standard file format which is
capable of storage, interchange, management, editing, and presentation of stereoscopic video contents.
The Stereoscopic Video application format (AF) defines a file format for stereoscopic video services in mobile
environments. It specifies core structures of stereoscopic video AF being organized by the combination of
related information for stereoscopic video applications.
Applicable areas of the Stereoscopic Video AF are quite broad, including the internet, telecommunications,
and storage devices. The user can download the Stereoscopic Video AF files from the internet or via the
telecommunication networks to his/her personal multimedia devices (e.g. Portable Multimedia Player or cell-
phone) for local playback.
