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 4 to ISO/IEC 13818-1:2007 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. The identical text is published as Rec. ITU-T H.222.0 (2006)/Amd.4
(12/2009).

ISO/IEC 14496-10:2009, Information technology – Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 10: Advanced
Video Coding.
2) Subclause 2.1
a) In 2.1.78, replace:
AVC video sub-bitstream: The video sub-bitstream that contains the base layer as defined in Annex G of ITU-T
Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 and that shall additionally contain NAL units with nal_unit_type equal to 14 (prefix
NAL units). The AVC video sub-bitstream contains all VCL NAL units associated with dependency_id equal to 0.
with:
AVC video sub-bitstream of SVC: The video sub-bitstream that contains the base layer as defined in Annex G of
ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 and that shall additionally contain NAL units with nal_unit_type equal to 14
(prefix NAL units) as defined for SVC in Annex G of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. The AVC video
sub-bitstream of SVC contains all VCL NAL units associated with dependency_id equal to 0.
b) In 2.1.81, replace:
SVC slice (system): A byte_stream_nal_unit as defined in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 with nal_unit_type
equal to 20.
with:
SVC slice (system): A byte_stream_nal_unit as defined in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 with nal_unit_type
equal to 20 of an AVC video stream which conforms to one or more profiles defined in Annex G of ITU-T Rec. H.264 |

ISO/IEC 13818-1:2007/Amd.4:2009 (E)
2.1.84 MVC video sub-bitstream: The MVC video sub-bitstream is defined to be all VCL NAL units with
nal_unit_type equal to 20 associated with the same MVC view_id subset of an AVC video stream and associated non-
VCL NAL units which conform to one or more profiles defined in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10.
NOTE – In contrast to a sub-bitstream as specified in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, an MVC video
sub-bitstream according to this Specification is not necessarily a decodable MVC video sub-bitstream. The one exception is when
an MVC video sub-bitstream is also an MVC base view sub-bitstream. Re-assembling MVC video sub-bitstreams in an
increasing order of view order index, starting from the lowest value of view order index up to any value of view order index,
results in a decodable AVC video stream.
2.1.85 MVC base view sub-bitstream: The MVC base view sub-bitstream is defined to contain the AVC video sub-
bitstream of MVC conforming to one or more profiles defined in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10
and one additional MVC video sub-bitstream associated with an MVC view_id subset including the view order index
that immediately follows the view order index associated with the base view.
NOTE – The MVC base view sub-bitstream is also an AVC video stream where no re-assembly is required before decoding.
2.1.86 MVC view-component subset: The VCL NAL units of an AVC access unit associated with the same MVC
view_id subset and associated non-VCL NAL units.
NOTE – Re-assembling MVC view-component subsets ordered according to the view order index, starting from the minimum
view order index up to the highest view order index present in the access unit, while reordering the non-VCL NAL units
conforming to the order of NAL units within an access unit, as defined in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, results in an
AVC access unit.
2.1.87 MVC slice (system): A byte_stream_nal_unit with nal_unit_type syntax element equal to 20 of an AVC
video stream which conforms to one or more profiles defined in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10.
NOTE – As specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, the value of svc_extension_flag is set equal to 0 for coded video
sequences conforming to one or more profiles specified in Annex H. MVC slices should not include NAL units for which
nal_unit_type is equal to 20 with svc_extension_flag equal to 1.
2.1.88 AVC video sub-bitstream of MVC: The video sub-bitstream that contains the base view as defined in
Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, containing all VCL NAL units associated with the minimum value
of view order index present in each AVC video sequence of the AVC video stream. The AVC video sub-bitstream of
MVC may additionally contain the associated NAL units with nal_unit_type syntax element equal to 14 (prefix NAL
units), as defined for MVC in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10.
3) Subclause 2.4.2.8
In 2.4.2.8, T-STD extensions for carriage of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 video, replace:
To define the decoding in the T-STD of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 video streams carried in a Transport
Stream, the T-STD model needs to be extended. The T-STD extension and T-STD parameters for decoding of AVC
video streams conforming to one or more profiles defined in Annex A of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 are
defined in 2.14.3.1 and T-STD extension and T-STD parameters for decoding of AVC video streams conforming to one
or more profiles defined in Annex G of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 are defined in 2.14.3.5.

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 4 to ISO/IEC 13818-1:2007 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. The identical text is published as Rec. ITU-T H.222.0 (2006)/Amd.4

ISO/IEC 14496-10:2009, Information technology – Coding of audio-visual objects – Part 10: Advanced
Video Coding.
2) Subclause 2.1
a) In 2.1.78, replace:
AVC video sub-bitstream: The video sub-bitstream that contains the base layer as defined in Annex G of ITU-T
Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 and that shall additionally contain NAL units with nal_unit_type equal to 14 (prefix
NAL units). The AVC video sub-bitstream contains all VCL NAL units associated with dependency_id equal to 0.
with:
AVC video sub-bitstream of SVC: The video sub-bitstream that contains the base layer as defined in Annex G of
ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 and that shall additionally contain NAL units with nal_unit_type equal to 14
(prefix NAL units) as defined for SVC in Annex G of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. The AVC video
sub-bitstream of SVC contains all VCL NAL units associated with dependency_id equal to 0.
b) In 2.1.81, replace:
SVC slice (system): A byte_stream_nal_unit as defined in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 with nal_unit_type
equal to 20.
with:
SVC slice (system): A byte_stream_nal_unit as defined in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 with nal_unit_type
equal to 20 of an AVC video stream which conforms to one or more profiles defined in Annex G of ITU-T Rec. H.264 |
ISO/IEC 14496-10.
NOTE – As specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, the value of svc_extension_flag is set equal to 1 for coded video
sequences conforming to one or more profiles specified in Annex G. SVC slices should not include NAL units for which

ISO/IEC 13818-1:2007/Amd.4:2009 (E)
2.1.84 MVC video sub-bitstream: The MVC video sub-bitstream is defined to be all VCL NAL units with
nal_unit_type equal to 20 associated with the same MVC view_id subset of an AVC video stream and associated non-
VCL NAL units which conform to one or more profiles defined in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10.
NOTE – In contrast to a sub-bitstream as specified in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, an MVC video
sub-bitstream according to this Specification is not necessarily a decodable MVC video sub-bitstream. The one exception is when
an MVC video sub-bitstream is also an MVC base view sub-bitstream. Re-assembling MVC video sub-bitstreams in an
increasing order of view order index, starting from the lowest value of view order index up to any value of view order index,
results in a decodable AVC video stream.
2.1.85 MVC base view sub-bitstream: The MVC base view sub-bitstream is defined to contain the AVC video sub-
bitstream of MVC conforming to one or more profiles defined in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10
and one additional MVC video sub-bitstream associated with an MVC view_id subset including the view order index
that immediately follows the view order index associated with the base view.
NOTE – The MVC base view sub-bitstream is also an AVC video stream where no re-assembly is required before decoding.
2.1.86 MVC view-component subset: The VCL NAL units of an AVC access unit associated with the same MVC
view_id subset and associated non-VCL NAL units.
NOTE – Re-assembling MVC view-component subsets ordered according to the view order index, starting from the minimum
view order index up to the highest view order index present in the access unit, while reordering the non-VCL NAL units
conforming to the order of NAL units within an access unit, as defined in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, results in an
AVC access unit.
2.1.87 MVC slice (system): A byte_stream_nal_unit with nal_unit_type syntax element equal to 20 of an AVC
video stream which conforms to one or more profiles defined in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10.
NOTE – As specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, the value of svc_extension_flag is set equal to 0 for coded video
sequences conforming to one or more profiles specified in Annex H. MVC slices should not include NAL units for which
nal_unit_type is equal to 20 with svc_extension_flag equal to 1.
2.1.88 AVC video sub-bitstream of MVC: The video sub-bitstream that contains the base view as defined in
Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, containing all VCL NAL units associated with the minimum value
of view order index present in each AVC video sequence of the AVC video stream. The AVC video sub-bitstream of
MVC may additionally contain the associated NAL units with nal_unit_type syntax element equal to 14 (prefix NAL
units), as defined for MVC in Annex H of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10.
3) Subclause 2.4.2.8
In 2.4.2.8, T-STD extensions for carriage of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 video, replace:
To define the decoding in the T-STD of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 video streams carried in a Transport
Stream, the T-STD model needs to be extended. The T-STD extension and T-STD parameters for decoding of AVC
video streams conforming to one or more profiles defined in Annex A of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 are
defined in 2.14.3.1 and T-STD extension and T-STD parameters for decoding of AVC video streams conforming to one
or more profiles defined in Annex G of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 are defined in 2.14.3.5.
