RTP Payload Format for sub-codestream latency Sub-Codestream Latency JPEG 2000 streaming
draft-ietf-avtcore-rtp-j2k-scl-08 Streaming
Abstract
This document defines the RTP payload format defines for the streaming of a
video signal encoded as a sequence of JPEG 2000 codestreams. The
format allows sub-codestream latency, such that the first RTP packet
for a given image can be emitted before the entire image is available to,
to or encoded by, by the sender.

1. Introduction
The real-time transport protocol Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP), which is specified in
[RFC3550], provides end-to-end network transport functions for
transmitting real-time data, data but does not define the characteristics
of the data itself (the payload), which varies across applications
and is defined in companion RTP payload format documents.
This RTP payload format specifies the streaming of a video signal
encoded as a sequence of JPEG 2000 codestreams (see Section 3 for a
primer on the structure of JPEG 2000 codestreams). JPEG 2000 is a
flexible image codec that supports resolution and quality
scalability, lossy to lossless lossy-to-lossless coding, non-iterative optimal rate
control, and high-dynamic high dynamic range, multi-channel multi-channel, and sub-sampled subsampled
images. These features have made it a mainstay in high-performance
applications, including medical, geospatial, archival, cinema, studio
post-production
post-production, and TV production.
In addition to supporting a variety of frame scanning frame-scanning techniques
(progressive, interlaced interlaced, and progressive segmented frame) and image
characteristics, the payload format supports real-time image
transmission (live streaming), where image content is encoded,
transmitted
transmitted, and decoded continuously as it is being produced and produced, with
minimal latency. Target applications include real-time TV production
over IP ([ov2110-0]), [OV2110-0], remote presence, surveillance, etc.
Specifically:
* the The payload format allows sub-codestream latency such that the
first RTP packet of a given codestream to be emitted before the
entire codestream is available. Specifically, the payload format
does not rely on the JPEG 2000 PLM (Packet length, main header)
and PLT (Packet length, tile-part header) marker segments for
recovery after RTP Packet packet loss since these markers can only be
written after the codestream is complete and are thus incompatible
with sub-codestream latency. Instead, the payload format includes
payload header fields (ORDH, ORDB, POS POS, and PID) that indicates indicate
whether the RTP packet contains a resynchronization (resync) point
and how a recipient can restart codestream processing from that
resync point. This contrasts with [RFC5371], which also specifies
an RTP payload format for JPEG 2000, 2000 but relies on codestream
structures that cannot be emitted until the entire codestream is
available.
* as As in [RFC4175], the payload format defines an extended sequence
number, which extends the standard (16-bit) sequence number of the
RTP fixed header by storing additional (high-order) bits in the
payload header (ESEQ field). This enables the payload format to
accommodate high data rates without ambiguity, since the standard
sequence number will roll over very quickly for high data rates
likely to be encountered in this application. For example, the
standard sequence number will roll over in 0.5 seconds with a
1-Gbps 1
Gbps video stream with RTP Packet packet sizes of at least 1000 octets,
which can be a problem for detecting loss and out-of-order RTP
packets
packets, particularly in instances where the round-trip time is
greater than the roll over rollover period (0.5 seconds in this example).
* the The payload header optionally contains a temporal offset (PTSTAMP)
relative to the first RTP Packet packet with the same value of RTP
timestamp field (Section 5.2). The higher resolution of PTSTAMP
compared to the timestamp allows receivers to recover the sender's
clock more rapidly.
In addition to support for sub-codestream latency and high-precision
sender clock recovery, the payload format improves on [RFC5371] by
supporting:
* code-block caching for screen content (see Section 7.9);
* progressive-segmented progressive segmented frame (PsF) video support (see Appendix B; B);
and
* explicit colorspace signaling (see Section 5.3. 5.3).
Finally, the payload format also makes use of the unique scalability
features of JPEG 2000 to allow an intermediate system or recipient to
discard resolutions levels and/or quality layers merely by inspecting
RTP Packet packet headers (QUAL and RES fields), without having to parse the
underlying codestream (see Section 7.2).

3. Media format description Format Description
The following summarizes the structure of the JPEG 2000 codestream,
which is specified in detail at [jpeg2000-1]. in [JPEG2000-1].
NOTE: as As described at in Section 6, a JPEG 2000 codestream allows
capabilities defined in any part of the JPEG 2000 family of
standards, including those specified in [jpeg2000-2] [JPEG2000-2] and
[jpeg2000-15].
[JPEG2000-15].
JPEG 2000 represents an image as one or more components, each
uniformly sampled on a common rectangular reference grid. For
example, an image can consist of the customary Y (luma), C_b (blue-
difference chroma), and C_r (red-difference chroma) components, with
the C_b and C_r being sub-sampled subsampled by a factor of two compared to the Y
component.
An image can be further divided into contiguous rectangular tiles
that are each independently coded and decoded.
JPEG 2000 codes each image as a standalone codestream. A codestream
consists of (i) marker segments, which contain coding parameters and
metadata, and (ii) coded data.
For convenience to the reader, the following lists both the
abbreviated and full names of marker segments that are mentioned in
this specification (several other marker segments are defined by JPEG
2000 and can be present in a codestream):
CAP
CAP: Extended Capabilities
COC
COC: Coding style component
COD
COD: Coding style default
COM
COM: Comment
EOC
EOC: End of codestream
PLM
PLM: Packet length, main header
PLT
PLT: Packet length, tile-part header
SOC
SOC: Start of codestream
SOD
SOD: Start of data
SOT
SOT: Start of tile-part
The codestream starts with an SOC marker segment and ends with an EOC
marker segment. The main header of the codestream consists of marker
segments between the SOC and first SOT marker segment and contains
information that applies to the codestream in its entirety. It is
generally impossible to decode a codestream without its main header.
The rest of the codestream consists of additional marker segments
(tile-part headers) interleaved with coded image data.
At the heart of JPEG 2000 coding is the wavelet transform, which
decomposes the image into successive resolution levels, with each
level related to the next one by a spatial factor of two, i.e., each
successive resolution level has half the horizontal and half the
vertical resolution of the previous one.
The coded image data ultimately consists of code-blocks, each
containing coded samples belonging to a rectangular (spatial) region
within one resolution level of one component. Code-blocks are
further collected into precincts, which, accordingly, represents
code-blocks represent code-
blocks belonging to a spatial region within one resolution level of
one component.
The image coded data can be arranged into several progression orders,
which dictates which aspect of the image appears first in the
codestream (in terms of byte offset). The progression orders are
parameterized according to:
Position (P)
The first lines of the image come before the last lines of the
image.
Component (C)
The first component of the image comes before the last component
of the image.
Resolution Level (R)
The information needed to reconstruct the lower spatial
resolutions of the image come before the information needed to
reconstruct the higher spatial resolutions of the image.
Quality Layer (L)
The information needed to reconstruct the most- most significant bits of
each sample come before the information needed to reconstruct the least-significant
least significant bit of each sample.
For example, in the PRCL progression order, the information needed to
reconstruct the first lines of the image come before that needed to
reconstruct the last lines of the image and, image, and within a collection of
lines, the information needed to reconstruct the lower spatial
resolutions of the image come before the information needed to
reconstruct the higher spatial resolutions. This progression order
is particular particularly useful for sub-frame subframe latency operations.
4. Video signal description Signal Description
This RTP payload format supports three distinct video frame techniques for
scanning
techniques: video frames:
* Progressive frame
* Interlaced frame, where each frame consists of two fields. Field
1 occurs earlier in time than Field 2. The height in lines of
each field is half the height of the image.
* Progressive segmented frame (PsF), where each frame consists of
two segments. Segment 1 contains the odd lines (1, 3, 5, 7,...) 7, ...)
of a frame frame, and Segment 2 contains the even lines (2, 4, 6, 8,...) 8,
...) of the same frame, where lines from the top of the frame to
the bottom of the frame are numbered sequentially starting at 1.
All frames are scanned left to right, top to bottom.

P = (Optional) padding bytes
Figure 1: Packetization of a sequence Sequence of JPEG 2000 codestreams
(not Codestreams
(Not to scale). Scale)
In Figure 1, P denotes (optional) padding bytes. See Section 3 for an expansion
expansions of the SOC, SOD,
SOT SOT, and EOC abbreviations. EOC.
Each RTP packet, as specified at in [RFC3550], is either a Main Packet
or a Body Packet.
A Main Packet consists of the following ordered sequence of
structures concatenated without gaps:
* the RTP Fixed Header;
* a Main Packet Payload Header, as specified at in Section 5.3; and
* the payload, which consists of a JPEG 2000 codestream fragment.
A Body Packet consists of the following ordered sequence of
structures concatenated without gaps:
* the RTP Fixed Header;
* a Body Packet Payload Header, as specified at in Section 5.4; and
* the payload, which consists of a JPEG 2000 codestream fragment.
When concatenated, the sequence of JPEG 2000 codestream fragments
emitted by the sender MUST be a sequence of JPEG 2000 codestreams
where two successive JPEG 2000 codestreams MAY be separated by one or
more padding bytes (see Figure 1).
The sender MUST set the value of each padding byte to zero.
The receiver MUST ignore the values of the padding bytes.
The JPEG 2000 codestreams MUST conform to Section 6.
NOTE 1: Padding bytes can be used to achieve constant bit rate
transmission.
A JPEG 2000 codestream fragment, and thus an RTP Packet, packet, does not
necessarily contain complete JPEG 2000 packets, as defined in
[jpeg2000-1].
[JPEG2000-1].
A JPEG 2000 codestream Extended Header consists of the bytes between,
and including, the SOC marker and the first SOD marker.
NOTE 2: The concept of the JPEG 2000 codestream Extended Header is
specific to this document, document and is distinct from the JPEG 2000
codestream main header header, which is defined in [jpeg2000-1]. [JPEG2000-1]. The
codestream main header consists of the bytes between, and including,
the SOC marker and the first SOT marker. The codestream main header
is a subset of the codestream Extended Header (see Figure 1).
The payload of a Body Packet MUST NOT contain any bytes of the JPEG
2000 codestream Extended Header.
The payload of a Main Packet MUST contain at least one byte of the
JPEG 2000 codestream Extended Header and MAY contain bytes other than
those of the JPEG 2000 codestream Extended Header.
A payload MUST NOT contain bytes from more than one JPEG 2000
codestream.
5.2. RTP Fixed Header Usage
The following RTP header fields have a specific meaning in the
context of this payload format:
marker
1 The payload contains an EOC marker.
0 Otherwise
timestamp
The timestamp is the presentation time of the image to which the
payload belongs.
The timestamp clock rate is 90 kHz.
The timestamp of successive progressive frames MUST advance at
regular increments based on the instantaneous video frame rate.
The timestamp of Field 1 of successive interlaced frames MUST
advance at regular increments based on the instantaneous video
frame rate, and the Timestamp of Field 2 MUST be offset from the
timestamp of Field 1 by one half of the instantaneous frame
period.
The timestamp of both segments of a progressive segmented frame
MUST be equal.
The timestamp of all RTP packets of a given image MUST be equal.
sequence number
The low-order bits of the extended sequence number.
The high-order bits of the extended sequence number are contained
in the ESEQ field, which is specified at in Section 5.3.
The extended sequence number is calculated as follows:
<extended sequence number> = <ESEQ field> * 65536 + <sequence
number field of the RTP fixed header>
5.3. Main Packet Payload Header

MH
MH: See Section 5.3.
TP
TP: See Section 5.3.
RES (Resolution Levels): 3 bits
0 The payload can contribute to all resolution levels.
Otherwise The payload contains at least one byte of one JPEG 2000
packet belonging to resolution level (N_L + RES - 7) but does
not contain any byte of any JPEG 2000 packet belonging to lower
resolution levels. N_L is the number of decomposition levels
of the codestream.
ORDB (Progression Order [Body Packet]): 1 bit
0 No resync point is specified for the payload.
1 The payload contains a resync point.
ORDB MUST be 0 is if the codestream consists of more than one tile.
QUAL (Quality Layers): 3 bits
0 The payload can contribute to all quality layers.
Otherwise The payload contributes only to quality layer index
QUAL or above.
PTSTAMP
PTSTAMP: See Section 5.3.
ESEQ
ESEQ: See Section 5.3.
POS (Resync Point Offset): 12 bits
Byte offset from the start of the payload to the first byte of the
resync point belonging to the precinct identified by PID.
POS MUST be 0 if ORDB = 0.
PID (Precinct Identifier): 20 bits
Unique identifier of the precinct of the resync point.
PID = c + s * num_components
where:
* _c_ is the index (starting from 0) of the image component to
which the precinct belongs;
* _s_ is a sequence number which that identifies the precinct within
its tile-component; and
* _num_components_ is the number of components of the codestream.
If PID is present, the payload MUST NOT contain codestream bytes
from more than one precinct.
PID MUST be 0 if ORDB = 0.
NOTE: PID is identical to precinct identifier I specified in
[jpeg2000-9].
[JPEG2000-9].
6. JPEG 2000 codestream Codestream
A JPEG 2000 codestream consists of the bytes between, and including,
the SOC and EOC markers, as defined in [jpeg2000-1]. [JPEG2000-1].
The JPEG 2000 codestream MAY include capabilities beyond those
specified at [jpeg2000-1], in [JPEG2000-1], including those specified in [jpeg2000-2] [JPEG2000-2]
and [jpeg2000-15]. [JPEG2000-15].
NOTE: The Rsiz parameter and CAP marker segments of each JPEG 2000
codestream contain detailed information on the capabilities necessary
to decode the codestream.
NOTE: The caps media type parameter defined in Section 9.2 allows
applications to signal required device capabilities.
NOTE: The block coder specified at [jpeg2000-15] in [JPEG2000-15] improves throughput
and reduces latency compared to the original arithmetic block coder
defined in [jpeg2000-1]. [JPEG2000-1].
For interlaced or progressive segmented frames, the height specified
in the JPEG 2000 main header MUST be the height in lines of the field
or the segment, respectively.
If any decomposition level involves only horizontal decomposition decomposition,
then no decomposition level MUST involve only vertical decomposition;
and,
conversely, if any decomposition level involves only vertical
decomposition
decomposition, then no decomposition level MUST involve only
horizontal decomposition.
7. Sender
7.1. Main Packet
A Main Packet MAY contain zero or more bytes of the JPEG 2000
codestream Extended Header.
The sender MUST either emit either a single Main Packet with MH = 3, or one
or more Main Packets with MH = 1 followed by a single Main Packet
with MH = 2.
The Main Packet Payload Headers fields MUST be identical in all Main
Packet
Packets of a given codestream, with the exception of:
* MH;
* ESEQ; and
* PTSTAMP.
7.2. RTP Packet filtering Filtering
An intermediate system MAY strip out RTP Packet packets from a codestream
that are of no interest to a particular client, e.g., based on a
resolution or a spatial region of interest.
7.3. Resync point Point
A resync point is the first byte of JPEG 2000 packet header data for
a precinct and for which PID < 2^24.
NOTE: Resync points cannot be specified if the codestream consists of
more than one tile (ORDB and ORDH are both equal to zero).
NOTE: A resync point can be used by a receiver to process a
codestream even if earlier RTP packets in the codestream have been
corrupted, lost lost, or deliberately discarded by an intermediate system.
As a corollary, resync points can be used by an intermediate system
to discard RTP packets that are not relevant to a given rendering
resolution or region of interest. Resync points play a role similar
to pointer marker segments, albeit tailored for high bandwidth low high-bandwidth, low-
latency streaming applications.
7.4. PTSTAMP field Field
A sender SHOULD set P = 1, but only if it can generate PTSTAMP
accurately.
PTSTAMP can be derived from the same clock that is used to produce
the 32-bit timestamp field in the RTP fixed header. Specifically, a
sender maintains, at least conceptually, a 32-bit counter that is
incremented by a 90kHz 90 kHz clock. The counter is sampled at the point
in time when each RTP Packet packet is transmitted and the 12 LSBs of the
sample are stored in the PTSTAMP field.
If P = 1, then the transmission time TOFF (as defined at in Section 5.3)
for two consecutive RTP packets with identical timestamp fields MUST
NOT differ by more than 4095.
7.5. RES field Field
A sender SHOULD set RES > 0 whenever possible.
NOTE: While a sender can always safely set RES = 0, this makes it
more difficult to discard RTP packets based on resolution, as
described at in Section 8.3.
7.6. Extra information Information
The sender MUST set the value of XTRAC to 0.
Future updates to this RTP payload format can permit other values.
7.7. Unassigned values Values
The sender MUST set unassigned values to 0.
Unassigned values are available for assignment by future updates to
this RTP payload format. As specified at in Section 8.5 8.5, these future
assigned values are ignored by receivers that conform to this
specification. In contrast with to extension values (Section 7.8, (see Section 7.8),
this mechanism allows updates to this RTP payload format that remain
compatible with receivers that conform to this specification.
7.8. Extension values Values
A sender MUST NOT use an extension value.
7.9. Code-block caching Code-Block Caching
This section applies only applies if C = 1.
A sender can improve bandwidth efficiency by only occasionally
transmitting code-blocks corresponding to static portions of the
video and otherwise transmitting empty code-blocks. When C = 1, and
as described at in Section 8.7, a receiver maintains a simple cache of
previously received code-blocks, which it uses to replace empty code-
blocks.
A sender alone determines which and when code-blocks are replaced with empty code-blocks.
code-blocks and when the replacement occurs.
The sender cannot however cannot, however, determine with certainty the state of the
receiver's cache: cache; for example, some code-blocks might have been lost
in transit, the sender doesn't know exactly when the receiver started
processing the stream, etc.
A code-block is _empty_ if:
* it does not contribute code-bytes as specified in the parent JPEG
2000 packet header; or
* if the code-block conforms to [jpeg2000-15], it contains an HT cleanup segment and the first two bytes of the
Magsgn byte-stream are between 0xFF80 and 0xFF8F.
NOTE: 0xFF8F (if the code-
block conforms to [JPEG2000-15]).
NOTE: The last condition allows the encoder to insert padding bytes
to achieve a constant bit rate even when a code-block does not
contribute code-bytes, as suggested at [jpeg2000-15], F.4. in Annex F.4 of [JPEG2000-15].
8. Receiver
8.1. PTSTAMP
Receivers can use PTSTAMP values to accelerate sender clock recovery
since PTSTAMP typically updates more regularly than timestamp.
8.2. QUAL
A receiver can discard RTP packets where QUAL > N if it is interested
in reconstructing an image that only incorporates quality layers N
and below.
8.3. RES
The JPEG 2000 coding process decomposes an image using a sequence of
discrete wavelet transforms transform (DWT) stages.

Table 2: Optional discarding of Body Packets based on the value
of the RES field when decoding a reduced resolution image, in the
case where N_L = 5 and all DWT stages consist of both horizontal
and vertical transforms. The image has nominal width and height
of W x H.
Table 2 illustrates the case where each DWT stage consists of both
horizontal and vertical transforms, which is the only mode supported
in [jpeg2000-1]. [JPEG2000-1]. The first stage transforms the image into (i) the
image at half-resolution (LL1 sub-bands) and (ii) residual high-
frequency data (HH1, LH1, HL1 sub-bands). The second stage
transforms the image at half-resolution (LL1 sub-bands) into the
image at quarter resolution (LL2 sub-bands) and residual high-
frequency data (HH2, LH2, HL2 sub-bands). This process is repeated
N_L times, where N_L is the number of decomposition levels as defined
in the COD and COC marker segments of the codestream.
The decoding process reconstructs the image by reversing the coding
process, starting with the lowest resolution image stored in the
codestream (LL_(N_L)).
As a result, it is possible to reconstruct a lower resolution of the
image by stopping the decoding process at a selected stage. For
example, in order to reconstruct the image at quarter resolution
(LL2), only sub-bands with index greater than 2, e.g., 2 (e.g., HL3, LH3, HH3,
HL4, LH4, HH4, etc., etc.) are necessary. In other words, a receiver that
wishes to reconstruct an image at quarter resolution could discard
all RTP packets where RES >= 6 since those RTP packets can only
contribute to HL1, LH1, HH1, HL2, LH2 LH2, and HH2 sub-bands.
In the case where all DWT stages consist of both horizontal and
vertical transforms, the maximum decodable resolution is reduced by a
factor of 2^(7 - N) if all Body Packets where RES > N are discarded.

Table 3: Optional discarding of Body Packets based on the value
of the RES field when decoding a reduced resolution image, in the
case where N_L = 5 and some DWT stages consist of only horizontal
transforms. The image has nominal width and height of W x H.
Table 3 illustrates the case where some DWT stages consist of only
horizontal transforms, as specified at Annex F of [jpeg2000-2]. [JPEG2000-2].
A receiver can therefore discard all Body Packets where RES is
greater than some threshold value if it is interested in decoding an
image with its resolution reduced by a factor determined by the
threshold value, as illustrated in Table Tables 2 and Table 3.
8.4. Extra information Information
The receiver MUST accept values of XTRAC other than 0 and MUST ignore
the value of XTRAB, whose length is given by XTRAC.
Future updates to this RTP payload format can specify XTRAB contents
such that this content can be ignored by receivers that conform to
this specification.
8.5. Unassigned values Values
The receiver MUST ignore unassigned values (see additional discussion
at
in Section 7.7).
8.6. Extension values Values
The receiver MUST discard an RTP packet that contains any extension
value.
8.7. Code-block caching Code-Block Caching
This section applies only applies if C = 1.
When C = 1, and as specified in Section 7.9, the sender can improve
bandwidth efficiency by only occasionally transmitting code-blocks
corresponding to static portions of the video and otherwise
transmitting empty code-blocks, as defined at in Section 7.9.
When decoding a codestream, and for each code-block in the
codestream:
* if If the code-block in the codestream is empty, the receiver MUST
replace it with a matching code-block from the cache, if one
exists; or
exists.
* if If the code-block in the codestream is not empty, the receiver
MUST replace any matching code-block from the cache with the code-
block in the codestream.
Two code-blocks are _matching_ if the following characteristics are
identical for both: spatial coordinates, resolution level, component,
sub-band
sub-band, and value of the TP field of the parent RTP packet.
9. Media Type
9.1. General
This RTP payload format is identified using the media type defined at in
Section 9.2, which is 9.2. This media type has been registered in accordance with
[RFC4855] and using the template of in [RFC6838].
9.2. Definition

pixel parameters:
pixel:
Specifies the pixel format used by the video sequence.
The parameter MUST be a URI-reference as specified in
[RFC3986].

Specifies the format of the samples in each component of the
codestream.
The parameter MUST be a URI-reference as specified in

[RFC3986].
If the parameter is a relative-ref as specified in [RFC3986],
then it MUST be equal to one of the signal formats specified in

using an absolute-URI defined by an application.
The parameter MUST conform to the uri-list syntax expressed as
follows using ABNF ([RFC5234]): [RFC5234]:
uri-list = absolute-URI *(";" absolute-URI)
The application that defines the absolute-URI MUST ensure that
it does not contain any ";" character and MUST associate it
with a set of constraints to which the stream conforms. Such
constraints can, for example, include the maximum height and
width of images.
If the parameter is not specified, constraints, constraints beyond those
specified in this document, document are unspecified.

Encoding considerations considerations: This media type is framed and binary, see binary. See
Section 4.8 of [RFC6838].
Security considerations considerations: JPEG 2000 is a flexible image format. As a
result, the size of the memory structures required to process JPEG
2000 images can vary greatly depending on the characteristics of
the image and the encoding parameters. For example, the JPEG 2000
syntax allows image height and width up to 2^32 - 1 pixels, which
is also captured in the syntax of the height and width parameters
of the media type specified at in Section 9.2. Implementations Therefore,
implementations SHOULD
therefore take care when processing input that
influences the size of memory structures, structures and SHOULD fail
gracefully when resource constraints are exceeded.
See also Section 13.
Interoperability considerations considerations: The RTP stream is a sequence of
JPEG 2000 images. An implementation that conforms to the family
of JPEG 2000 standards can decode and attempt to display each
image.

10. Mapping to the Session Description Protocol (SDP)
The mapping of the payload format media type and its parameters to
SDP, as specified in [RFC8866] [RFC8866], MUST be done according to Section 3
of [RFC4855].
11. Congestion control Control
Since this RTP payload format can be used in a variety of
applications across many different contexts, there is no single
congestion control mechanism that will work for all. Below is a non-
exhaustive list of example mechanisms that can be used:
* a sender can offer several alternative streams for a given video
signal, each with a different data rate corresponding to a
different compression ratio;
* a sender can modulate the data rate within a stream by modulating
the resolution, frame rate, or compression ratio of the underlying
video signal; or
* an intermediate system can lower the data rate of a stream by
discarding resolutions levels and/or quality layers, as specified
at
in Section 7.2.
As suggested at in Section 10 of [RFC3550] [RFC3550], RTCP feedback can be used in
the data rate adaptation process.
12. IANA Considerations
This memo requests that
IANA registers has registered the media type specified at in Section 9.
13. Security considerations Considerations
RTP packets using the payload format specified in this document are
subject to the security considerations discussed in [RFC3550] , and in
any applicable RTP profile such as [RFC3551], [RFC4585], [RFC3711],
and [RFC5124]. However, as [RFC7202] discusses, it is not an RTP
payload format's responsibility to discuss or mandate what solutions
are used to meet the basic security goals like confidentiality,
integrity, and source authenticity for RTP in general. This
responsibility lays on lies with anyone using RTP in an application. They
can find guidance on available security mechanisms and important
considerations in [RFC7201]. Applications SHOULD use one or more
appropriate strong security mechanisms. The rest of this
Security Considerations section
discusses the security impacting properties of the payload format
itself.
This RTP payload format and its media decoder do not exhibit any
significant non-uniformity in the receiver-side computational
complexity for RTP Packet processing, packet processing and thus are unlikely to pose a
denial-of-service threat due to the receipt of pathological data.
Nor does In
addition, the RTP payload format does not contain any active content.
Security considerations related to the JPEG 2000 codestream contained
in the payload are discussed at in Section 3 of [RFC3745].

Table 4: Defined pixel formats Pixel Formats
Each pixel format is characterized by the following:
NAME
NAME: Identifies the pixel format
SAMP
SAMP:
4:2:0 The C_b and C_r color channels are subsampled horizontally
and vertically by 1/2.
4:2:2 The C_b and C_r color channels are subsampled horizontally
by 1/2.
4:4:4 No color channels are sub-sampled.
COMPS
RGB subsampled.
COMPS:
RGB: Each codestream contains exactly three components,
associated with the R, G G, and B color channels, in order.
YCbCr
YCbCr: Each codestream contains exactly three components,
associated with the Y, C_b C_b, and C_r color channels, in
order.
TRANS
TRANS: Identifies the transfer characteristics allowed by the pixel
format, as defined at [rec-itu-t-h273]
PRIMS in [REC-ITU-T-H273].
PRIMS: Identifies the color primaries allowed by the pixel format,
as defined at [rec-itu-t-h273]
MAT in [REC-ITU-T-H273].
MAT: Identifies the matrix coefficients allowed by the pixel format,
as defined at [rec-itu-t-h273]
VFR in [REC-ITU-T-H273].
VFR: Allows values of the VideoFullRangeFlag defined at
[rec-itu-t-h273] in
[REC-ITU-T-H273].
Appendix B. Signal formats
prog Formats
prog: The stream MUST only consist of a sequence of progressive
frames.
psf
psf: Progressive segmented frame (PsF) stream. The stream MUST only
consist of an alternating sequence of first segment and second
segment.
tff
tff: Interlaced stream. The stream MUST only consist of an
alternating sequence of first field and second field, where the
first line of the first field is the first line of the frame.
bff
bff: Interlaced stream. The stream MUST only consist of an
alternating sequence of first field and second field, where the
first line of the first field is the second line of the frame.
Appendix C. Sample formats Formats
8 All components consist of unsigned 8-bit integer samples.
10 All components consist of unsigned 10-bit integer samples.
12 All components consist of unsigned 12-bit integer samples.
16 All components consist of unsigned 16-bit integer samples.
