Information technology — MPEG video technologies — Part 7: Versatile supplemental enhancement information messages for coded video bitstreams

This document specifies the syntax and semantics of video usability information (VUI) parameters and supplemental enhancement information (SEI) messages. The VUI parameters and SEI messages defined in this document are designed to be conveyed within coded video bitstreams in a manner specified in a video coding specification or to be conveyed by other means determined by the specifications for systems that make use of such coded video bitstreams. This document is particularly intended for use with coded video bitstreams as specified by Rec. ITU‑T H.266 | ISO/IEC 23090-3, although it is drafted in a manner intended to be sufficiently generic that it can also be used with other types of coded video bitstreams. VUI parameters and SEI messages can assist in processes related to decoding, display or other purposes. However, unless otherwise specified in a referencing specification, the interpretation and use of the VUI parameters and SEI messages specified in this document is not a required functionality of a video decoder or receiving video system. Although semantics are specified for the VUI parameters and SEI messages, decoders and receiving video systems can simply ignore the content of the VUI parameters and SEI messages or can use them in a manner that somewhat differs from what is specified in this document.

Part 7:
Versatile supplemental enhancement information
messages for coded video bitstreams
1 Scope
This document specifies the syntax and semantics of video usability information (VUI) parameters and
supplemental enhancement information (SEI) messages. The VUI parameters and SEI messages defined
in this document are designed to be conveyed within coded video bitstreams in a manner specified
in a video coding specification or to be conveyed by other means determined by the specifications for
systems that make use of such coded video bitstreams. This document is particularly intended for use
with coded video bitstreams as specified by Rec. ITU-T H.266 | ISO/IEC 23090-3, although it is drafted
in a manner intended to be sufficiently generic that it can also be used with other types of coded video
bitstreams.
VUI parameters and SEI messages can assist in processes related to decoding, display or other purposes.
However, unless otherwise specified in a referencing specification, the interpretation and use of the
VUI parameters and SEI messages specified in this document is not a required functionality of a video
decoder or receiving video system. Although semantics are specified for the VUI parameters and SEI
messages, decoders and receiving video systems can simply ignore the content of the VUI parameters
and SEI messages or can use them in a manner that somewhat differs from what is specified in this
document.

identifier as the STSA picture for inter prediction reference. Pictures following an STSA picture in decoding order
in the same layer and with the same temporal sublayer identifier as the STSA picture do not use pictures prior to
the STSA picture in decoding order in the same layer and with the same temporal sublayer identifier as the STSA
picture for inter prediction reference. STSA pictures in an independent layer (i.e., a layer that does not depend on
other layers in its decoding) always have a temporal sublayer identifier greater than 0.
3.61
syntax element
element of data represented in a syntax structure
3.62
syntax structure
zero or more syntax elements that are present together in a specified order in a string of data bits,
where the left-most bit is considered to be the first and most significant bit, and the right-most bit is
considered to be the last and least significant bit
3.63
SEI message
syntax structure that provides a particular type of information that assists in processes related to
decoding, display or other purposes but is not needed by the decoding process in order to determine the
values of the samples in decoded pictures
3.64
temporal sublayer
subset of a temporal scalable bitstream, consisting of VCL NAL units with a particular value of temporal
sublayer identifier and the associated non-VCL NAL units

3.65
temporal sublayer identifier
number greater than or equal to 0 defined by a variable for which the value is specified by a video
coding specification such that pictures of all temporal sublayers have a specified temporal output order
relative to each other and pictures with a lower temporal sublayer identifier can be decoded without
reference to pictures with a higher temporal sublayer identifier
3.66
tilt angle
angle indicating the amount of tilt of a sphere region, measured as the amount of rotation of a sphere
region along the axis originating from the sphere origin passing through the centre point of the sphere
region, where the angle value increases clockwise when looking from the origin towards the positive
end of the axis
3.67
trailing picture
coded picture that is associated with an IRAP picture and follows the IRAP picture in both decoding
order and output order
3.68
VCL NAL unit
collective term for coded slice NAL units and the subset of other NAL units that have reserved values of
NAL unit type identifiers that are classified as VCL NAL units in a referencing specification
3.69
VUI parameters
syntax structure that identifies properties of interpretation of decoded pictures for display purposes,
particularly including colour representation information

region of omnidirectional video content suitable for display and viewing by the user
