PROPOSED SMPTE STANDARD SMPTE 7M for Television Data Structure for DV Based Audio, Data and Compressed Video at Mb/s - 8/6i, 8/5i, 7/6p Table of contents Scope Normative references Interface 4 Video compression Scope This standard defines the data structure for the interface of DV-Based digital audio, subcode data, and compressed video at Mb/s. The standard defines the processes required to decode the DV-based data structure into eight channels of AES- digital audio at 48 khz, subcode data, and high definition video at 8/6i, 8/5i and 7/6p. The following high definition video parameters are used in this standard: 8/6i system Input video format: 9 x 8 image sampling structure, 59.94 Hz field rate, interlace format. Compressed video data rate: Mb/s 8/5i system Input video format: 9 x 8 image sampling structure, 5 Hz field rate, interlace format. Compressed video data rate: Mb/s 7/6p system Input video format: 8 x 7 image sampling structure, 59.94 Hz frame rate, progressive format. Compressed video data rate: Mb/s In this document, the 6 Hz system nomenclature refers to both 8/6i and 7/6p systems, whereas, the 5 Hz system refers only to the 8/5i system. The nomenclature 8 line system refers to both 8/6i and 8/5i systems, while, the 7 line system refers only to the 7/6p system.

SMPTE 7M Normative references The following standards, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this standard. All standards are subject to revision, and parties to agreements based on this standard are encouraged to investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below. ANSI/SMPTE M-999 Television, Audio and Film ---- Time and Control Code SMPTE 74M-998 9 x 8 Scanning and Analog and Parallel Digital Interfaces for Multiple Picture Rates SMPTE 6M-999 5/6 High-Definition Production System -- Digital Representation and Bit Parallel Interface SMPTE 96M-997 8x7 Scanning, Analog and Digital Representation and Analog Interface AES-99 Serial transmission format for two-channel linearly represented digital audio data Data processing. General As shown in figure, processed audio, video and subcode data are output for recording on a D-xx recorder. Additionally this data are output in DIF format data for the different application through a digital interface port. Detail of process shown in figure is described in clauses and 4. Dotted lines are related to data flow described in VTR document. Annex A shows the block diagram of D-xx recorder. Figure A. of this document shows the part defined by this compression format document... Video encoding parameter The source component signal to be processed shall comply with the video parameters as defined by SMPTE 74M and SMPTE 96M... Audio encoding parameter The audio signal is sampled at 48 khz, with 6 bit quantization defined by AES... Subcode data The time code format in subcode area comply with SMPTE M...4 Frame structure In 8/6i and 8/5i systems, video frame data, audio frame data, and subcode data are processed in each frame. The audio frame in this document is defined as an audio-processing unit. In the 7/6p system, data in two video frames are processed within one frame duration of the 8/6i system. Consequently, audio data and subcode data are processed in same way as the 8/6i system. Each frame of time code shows a frame number that corresponds to each video frame in the 8 line system, and two video frames each in 7/6p system. Therefore time codes of the 8/6i and 7/6p system are the same. Page of 6 pages

Data structure The data structure of the compressed stream at the digital interface is shown in figure. The data of each frame are divided into four DIF channels. Each DIF channel is divided into DIF sequences for the 6 Hz system and DIF sequences for the 5 Hz system. Each DIF sequence consists of a header section, subcode section, VAUX section, audio section, and video section with the following DIF blocks respectively; Header section: Subcode section: VAUX section: Audio section: Video section: DIF block DIF blocks DIF blocks 9 DIF blocks 5 DIF blocks As shown in figure, each DIF block consists of a -byte ID and 77 bytes of data.

The bit-rate reduction process is operated sequentially from M h,a,p,k to M h,e,t,k. The data in a video segment are compressed and transformed to a 85-byte data stream. A set of compressed video data consists of five compressed macro blocks. Each compressed macro block consists of 77 bytes and is expressed as CM. Each video segment after the bit-rate reduction is expressed as CV h,i,k which consists of CM h,a,p,k; CM h,b,q,k; CM h,c,r,k; CM h,d,s,k; and CM h,e,t,k as shown below: CM h,a,p,k : This block includes all parts or most parts of the compressed data from macro block M h,a,p,k and may include the compressed data of macro block M h,b,q,k; or M h,c,r,k; or M h,d,s,k; or M h,e,t,k.
