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 14496-10:2009 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.
Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 14496-10:2009 is technically aligned with ITU-T Rec. H.264(2009)/Amd.1 but is not
published as identical text.

In 0.4 "Publication and versions of this specification", replace the paragraph:
ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 version 10 (the current Specification) refers to the integrated version 9 text after
its amendment to specify multiview video coding in one profile (Multiview High profile).
with:
ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 version 10 refers to the integrated version 9 text after its amendment to specify a
profile for multiview video coding and to define additional SEI messages.
ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 version 11 refers to the integrated version 10 text after its amendment to define a
new profile (the Constrained Baseline profile) intended primarily to enable implementation of decoders supporting only
the common subset of capabilities supported in various previously-specified profiles.
ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 version 12 (the current Specification) refers to the integrated version 11 text after
its amendment to define a new profile (the Stereo High profile) for two-view video coding with support of interlaced
coding tools and to specify an additional SEI message specified as the frame packing arrangement SEI message. The
changes for versions 11 and 12 were processed as a single amendment in the ISO/IEC approval process.

ISO/IEC 14496-10:2009/FDAM 1:2010(E)
In 9.2.2.1 "Parsing process for level_prefix", replace the sentence:
The value of level_prefix is constrained to not exceed 15 in bitstreams conforming to the Baseline, Main, and Extended
profiles, as specified in subclauses A.2.1, A.2.2, and A.2.3, respectively.
with:
The value of level_prefix is constrained to not exceed 15 in bitstreams conforming to the Baseline, Constrained Baseline,
Main, and Extended profiles, as specified in subclauses A.2.1, A.2.1.1, A.2.2, and A.2.3, respectively.

Remove the following text from A.2.1 "Baseline profile":
A.2.1.1 Constrained Baseline bitstreams and decoders
A bitstream can be referred to as a Constrained Baseline bitstream when profile_idc is equal to 66 and
constraint_set1_flag is equal to 1.
A decoder is referred to as a Constrained Baseline decoder when it has the capability of decoding bitstreams in which
profile_idc is equal to 66 or constraint_set0_flag is equal to 1 and in which constraint_set1_flag is equal to 1.
NOTE – All decoders conforming to the Baseline, Scalable Baseline, Main, Extended, High, Scalable High, High 10, High 4:2:2,
and High 4:4:4 Predictive profiles are Constrained Baseline decoders.

Add A.2.1.1 "Constrained Baseline profile" as follows:
A.2.1.1 Constrained Baseline profile
Bitstreams conforming to the Constrained Baseline profile shall obey all constraints specified in subclause A.2.1 for the
Baseline profile and all constraints specified in subclause A.2.2 for the Main profile.
Conformance of a bitstream to the Constrained Baseline profile is specified by profile_idc being equal to 66 with
constraint_set1_flag being equal to 1.
NOTE – This specification of the Constrained Baseline profile is technically identical to specification of the use of the Baseline
profile with constraint_set1_flag equal to 1. Thus, any existing specifications (in other documents that reference this
Recommendation | International Standard) that have referred to the use of the Baseline profile with constraint_set1_flag equal to 1
should thus be interpreted as continuing in force as being technically identical to referring to the use of the Constrained Baseline
profile (without any need for revision of these existing specifications to instead refer explicitly to the use of the Constrained
Baseline profile).
Decoders conforming to the Constrained Baseline profile at a specific level shall be capable of decoding all bitstreams in
which all of the following are true:
– profile_idc is equal to 66 or constraint_set0_flag is equal to 1
– constraint_set1_flag is equal to 1
– level_idc and constraint_set3_flag represent a level less than or equal to the specified level.

Replace the title of A.3.1:

constraints:
with:
Bitstreams conforming to the Baseline, Constrained Baseline, Main, or Extended profiles at a specified level shall obey
the following constraints:

In A.3.3 "Profile-specific level limits", replace the following NOTE:
NOTE 1 – direct_8x8_inference_flag is not relevant to the Baseline profile as it does not allow B slice types (specified
in subclause A.2.1), and direct_8x8_inference_flag is equal to 1 for all levels of the Extended profile (specified in
subclause A.2.3).
with:
NOTE 1 – direct_8x8_inference_flag is not relevant to the Baseline or Constrained Baseline profiles as these profiles
do not allow B slice types (specified in subclause A.2.1), and direct_8x8_inference_flag is equal to 1 for all levels of
the Extended profile (specified in subclause A.2.3).

In A.3.3 "Profile-specific level limits", replace the following NOTE:
NOTE 2 – frame_mbs_only_flag is equal to 1 for all levels of the Baseline profile (specified in subclause A.2.1).
with:
NOTE 2 – frame_mbs_only_flag is equal to 1 for all levels of the Baseline and Constrained Baseline profiles
(specified in subclauses A.2.1 and A.2.1.1, respectively).

In item f of A.3.3 "Profile-specific level limits", replace the phrase "Baseline or Extended" with "Baseline, Constrained
Baseline, or Extended".

In item f of A.3.3 "Profile-specific level limits", replace the phrase "specified in Table A-3 for the Baseline profile" with
"specified in Table A-3 for the Baseline and Constrained Baseline profiles".

Replace the title of A.3.3.1:
A.3.3.1 Baseline profile level limits
with:
A.3.3.1 Baseline and Constrained Baseline profile level limits

In A.3.3.1 "Baseline and Constrained Baseline profile level limits", replace the following sentence:
Table A-3 specifies limits for each level that are specific to bitstreams conforming to the Baseline profile.
with:
Table A-3 specifies limits for each level that are specific to bitstreams conforming to the Baseline or Constrained
Baseline profiles.

In A.3.3.1 "Baseline and Constrained Baseline profile level limits", replace the title of Table A-3 by replacing "Baseline
profile level limits" with "Baseline and Constrained Baseline profile level limits".

Add a NOTE at the beginning of D.2.22 "Stereo video information SEI message semantics" as follows:
NOTE – The stereo video information SEI message is included in this Specification primarily for historical reasons. It is now
suggested to use the frame packing arrangement SEI message rather than the stereo video information SEI message to signal stereo
video information.

ISO/IEC 14496-10:2009/FDAM 1:2010(E)
Add D.2.24.1 "Frame packing arrangement SEI message semantics" above D.2.25 as follows:
D.2.24.1 Frame packing arrangement SEI message semantics
This SEI message informs the decoder that the output decoded picture contains samples of a frame consisting of multiple
distinct spatially packed constituent frames using an indicated frame packing arrangement scheme. This information can
be used by the decoder to appropriately rearrange the samples and process the samples of the constituent frames
appropriately for display or other purposes (which are outside the scope of this Specification).
This SEI message may be associated with pictures that are either frames or fields. The frame packing arrangement of the
samples is specified in terms of the sampling structure of a frame in order to define a frame packing arrangement
structure that is invariant with respect to whether a picture is a single field of such a packed frame or is a complete
packed frame.
frame_packing_arrangement_id contains an identifying number that may be used to identify the usage of the frame
32
packing arrangement SEI message. The value of frame_packing_arrangement_id shall be in the range of 0 to 2 − 2,
inclusive.
31
Values of frame_packing_arrangement_id from 0 to 255 and from 512 to 2 − 1 may be used as determined by the
31 32
application. Values of frame_packing_arrangement_id from 256 to 511 and from 2 to 2 − 2 are reserved for future use
by ITU-T | ISO/IEC. Decoders shall ignore (remove from the bitstream and discard) all frame packing arrangement SEI
31 32
messages containing a value of frame_packing_arrangement_id in the range of 256 to 511 or in the range of 2 to 2 − 2,
and bitstreams shall not contain such values.
frame_packing_arrangement_cancel_flag equal to 1 indicates that the frame packing arrangement SEI message
cancels the persistence of any previous frame packing arrangement SEI message in output order.
frame_packing_arrangement_cancel_flag equal to 0 indicates that frame packing arrangement information follows.
frame_packing_arrangement_type indicates the type of packing arrangement of the frames as specified in Table D-8.

Table D-8 – Definition of frame_packing_arrangement_type

Value Interpretation
0 Each component plane of the decoded frames contains a "checkerboard" based interleaving of
corresponding planes of two constituent frames as illustrated in Figure D-1.
1 Each component plane of the decoded frames contains a column based interleaving of corresponding
planes of two constituent frames as illustrated in Figure D-2.
2 Each component plane of the decoded frames contains a row based interleaving of corresponding planes
of two constituent frames as illustrated in Figure D-3.
3 Each component plane of the decoded frames contains a side-by-side packing arrangement of
corresponding planes of two constituent frames as illustrated in Figure D-4 and Figure D-6.
4 Each component plane of the decoded frames contains top-bottom packing arrangement of
corresponding planes of two constituent frames as illustrated in Figure D-5.
5 The component planes of the decoded frames in output order form a temporal interleaving of alternating
first and second constituent frames as illustrated in Figure D-7.

NOTE 1 – Figure D-1 to Figure D-6 provide typical examples of rearrangement and upconversion processing for various packing
arrangement schemes. Actual characteristics of the constituent frames are signaled in detail by the subsequent syntax elements of
the frame packing arrangement SEI message. In Figure D-1 to Figure D-6, an upconversion processing is performed on each
constituent frame to produce frames having the same resolution as that of the decoded frame. An example of the upsampling
method to be applied to a quincunx sampled frame as shown in Figure D-1 or Figure D-6 is to fill in missing positions with an
average of the available spatially neighbouring samples (the average of the values of the available samples above, below, to the left
and to the right of each sample to be generated). The actual upconversion process to be performed, if any, is outside the scope of
this Specification.
NOTE 2 – Sample aspect ratio (SAR) should be signalled appropriately in VUI parameters to describe the intended horizontal
distance between the columns and the intended vertical distance between the rows of the luma sample array in the decoded frame.
For the typical examples in Figure D-1 to Figure D-3 with SAR of 1:1 for the upconverted color plane, signalling SAR of 1:1 is
appropriate. For the typical examples in Figure D-4 and Figure D-6 with SAR of 1:1 for the upconverted color plane, signalling

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
ISO/IEC 14496-10:2009/FDAM 1:2010(E)
SAR of 2:1 is appropriate. For the typical example in Figure D-5 with SAR of 1:1 for the upconverted color plane, signalling SAR
of 1:2 is appropriate.
NOTE 3 – When the output time of the samples of constituent frame 0 differs from the output time of the samples of constituent
frame 1 (i.e., when field_views_flag is equal to 1 or frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 5) and the display system in use
presents two views simultaneously, the display time for constituent frame 0 should be delayed to coincide with the display time for
constituent frame 1. (The display process is not specified in this Recommendation | International Standard.)
NOTE 4 – When field_views_flag is equal to 1 or frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 5, the value 0 for
fixed_frame_rate_flag is not expected to be prevalent in industry use of this SEI message.
NOTE 5 – frame_packing_arrangement_type equal to 5 describes a temporal interleaving process of different views.
All other values of frame_packing_arrangement_type are reserved for future use by ITU-T | ISO/IEC. It is a requirement
of bitstream conformance to this Specification that the bitstreams shall not contain such other values of
frame_packing_arrangement_type.
quincunx_sampling_flag equal to 1 indicates that each color component plane of each constituent frame is quincunx
sampled as illustrated in Figure D-1 or Figure D-6, and quincunx_sampling_flag equal to 0 indicates that the color
component planes of each constituent frame are not quincunx sampled.
When frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 0, it is a requirement of bitstream conformance to this Specification
that quincunx_sampling_flag shall be equal to 1. When frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 5, it is a
requirement of bitstream conformance to this Specification that quincunx_sampling_flag shall be equal to 0.
NOTE 6 – For any chroma format (4:2:0, 4:2:2, or 4:4:4), the luma plane and each chroma plane is quincunx sampled as illustrated
in Figure D-1 when quincunx_sampling_flag is equal to 1.
content_interpretation_type indicates the intended interpretation of the constituent frames as specified in Table D-9.
Values of content_interpretation_type that do not appear in Table D-9 are reserved for future specification by ITU-T |
ISO/IEC.
For each specified frame packing arrangement scheme, there are two constituent frames that are referred to as frame 0
and frame 1.
Table D-9 – Definition of content_interpretation_type
Value Interpretation
0 Unspecified relationship between the frame packed constituent frames
1 Indicates that the two constituent frames form the left and right views of a stereo view scene, with
frame 0 being associated with the left view and frame 1 being associated with the right view
2 Indicates that the two constituent frames form the right and left views of a stereo view scene, with
frame 0 being associated with the right view and frame 1 being associated with the left view

NOTE 7 – The value 2 for content_interpretation_type is not expected to be prevalent in industry use of this SEI message.
However, the value was specified herein for purposes of completeness.
spatial_flipping_flag equal to 1, when frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 3 or 4, indicates that one of the two
constituent frames is spatially flipped relative to its intended orientation for display or other such purposes.
When frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 3 or 4 and spatial_flipping_flag is equal to 1, the type of spatial
flipping that is indicated is as follows:
– If frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 3, the indicated spatial flipping is horizontal flipping.
– Otherwise (frame_packing_arrangement_type is equal to 4), the indicated spatial flipping is vertical flipping.
When frame_packing_arrangement_type is not equal to 3 or 4, it is a requirement of bitstream conformance to this
Specification that spatial_flipping_flag shall be equal to 0. When frame_packing_arrangement_type is not equal to 3 or 4,
the value 1 for frame_packing_arrangement_type is reserved for future use by ITU-T | ISO/IEC. When
frame_packing_arrangement_type is not equal to 3 or 4, decoders shall ignore the value 1 for spatial_flipping_flag.
frame0_flipped_flag, when spatial_flipping_flag is equal to 1, indicates which one of the two constituent frames is
flipped.
© ISO/IEC 2010 – All rights reserved 7

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
ISO/IEC 14496-10:2009/FDAM 1:2010(E)
When spatial_flipping_flag is equal to 1, frame0_flipped_flag equal to 0 indicates that frame 0 is not spatially flipped and
frame 1 is spatially flipped, and frame0_flipped_flag equal to 1 indicates that frame 0 is spatially flipped and frame 1 is
not spatially flipped.
When spatial_flipping_flag is equal to 0, it is a requirement of bitstream conformance to this Specification that
frame0_flipped_flag shall be equal to 0. When spatial_flipping_flag is equal to 0, the value 1 for spatial_flipping_flag is
reserved for future use by ITU-T | ISO/IEC. When spatial_flipping_flag is equal to 0, decoders shall ignore the value of
frame0_flipped_flag.
When quincunx_sampling_flag is equal to 0, spatial location reference information is provided to specify the location of
the upper left luma sample of each constituent frame relative to a spatial reference point.
NOTE 8 – The location of chroma samples relative to luma samples can be indicated by the chroma_sample_loc_type_top_field
and chroma_sample_loc_type_bottom_field syntax elements in the VUI parameters.
field_views_flag equal to 1 indicates that all pictures in the current coded video sequence are coded as complementary
field pairs. All fields of a particular parity are considered a first constituent frame and all fields of the opposite parity are
considered a second constituent frame. When frame_packing_arrangement_type is not equal to 2, it is a requirement of
bitstream conformance to this Specification that field_views_flag shall be equal to 0. When
frame_packing_arrangement_type is not equal to 2, the value 1 for field_views_flag is reserved for future use by ITU-T |
ISO/IEC. When frame_packing_arrangement_type is not equal to 2, decoders shall ignore the value of field_views_flag.
current_frame_is_frame0_flag equal to 1, when frame_packing_arrangement is equal to 5, indicates that the current
decoded frame is constituent frame 0 and the next decoded frame in output order is constituent frame 1, and the display
time of the constituent frame 0 should be delayed to coincide with the display time of constituent frame 1.
current_frame_is_frame0_flag equal to 0, when frame_packing_arrangement is equal to 5, indicates that the current
decoded frame is constituent frame 1 and the previous decoded frame in output order is constituent frame 0, and the
display time of the constitu
