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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for
the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
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. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the
Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).

Part 15:
Carriage of network abstraction layer (NAL) unit
structured video in the ISO base media file format
AMENDMENT 1: Handling of unspecified NAL unit types and
other improvements
5.2, Table 2
Change the first and last rows of Table 2 as follows (all other rows remain unchanged):
Value of Description Video elementary stream (sam- Video elementary Parameter set
nal_unit_type ple entry 'avc1' or 'avc2') stream (sample elementary
entry 'avc3' or stream
'avc4')
0 Unspecified See Annex F See Annex F See Annex F
24-31 Unspecified See Annex F See Annex F See Annex F

Clause 4
Add the following new subclauses as 4.11 and 4.12:
4.11 SEI information box
4.11.1 Definition
'seii'
Box Type:
Container: Scheme Information box ('schi') or VisualSampleEntry
Mandatory: Yes (in the SchemeInformationBox), No (in a VisualSampleEntry)
Quantity: One (in the SchemeInformationBox), Zero or one (in a VisualSampleEntry)
The SEI Information box documents the SEIs in a stream. When contained in a VisualSampleEntry
numRequiredSEIs shall be 0. By inspecting the SEI Information box a player will know which SEI
messages it can assume to be present, and which are deemed necessary by the file author for correct
playback. There might be other SEIs present in the bitstream that are not documented by this box.

4.11.2 Syntax
aligned(8) class SeiInformationBox extends Box('seii') {
unsigned int(16) numRequiredSEIs;
for (i = 0; i < numRequiredSEIs; i++) {
  unsigned int(16) requiredSEI_ID;
}
unsigned int(16) numNotRequiredSEIs;
for (i = 0; i < numNotRequiredSEIs; i++) {
  unsigned int(16) notrequiredSEI_ID;
}
}

4.11.3 Semantics
requiredSEI_ID takes on the value “payloadType” of an SEI message present in the bitstream that is
deemed necessary by the file author for correct playback.
notrequiredSEI_ID takes on the value “payloadType” of an SEI message present in the bitstream
that is not deemed necessary by the file author for correct playback.
4.12 Post-decoder requirements scheme for signalling of SEI
4.12.1 General
In order to handle situations where the file author requires certain actions on the player or renderer, the
ISO base media file format specifies the restricted-video mechanism where sample entries are hidden
behind the generic sample entry 'resv'. The mechanism applies to all coding systems identified by
chapters in this document. For the case of signalling of SEI, a file author can list occurring SEI message
IDs (ISO/IEC 14496-10, ISO/IEC 23008-2) and classify them into two categories: those that are deemed
required by the file author for correct playback, and others. The occurrence of either type of SEI
messages can be signalled in the SEI Information box.
4.12.2 Definition
The scheme for signalling of SEI is defined here.
The SchemeType 'aSEI' is used.
The SEI information box is mandatory in the SchemeInformationBox under the ‘aSEI’ scheme. In
this case, it contains information about the SEI messages present in the bitstream. Although the SEI
messages are not required for decoding, the file author may require certain actions for rendering or
other purposes. The box distinguishes between an SEI that is required to be understood for correct
playback and an SEI that is not required for correct playback (but may enhance playback).
The SEI messages listed here should be stored either in the bitstream or in the Configuration Record.
The SEI Information box does not contain the actual SEI messages, it only lists those that occur in the
bitstream.
