ANSI SCTE 215-2-2018 pdf free download.HEVC Video Constraints for Cable Television Part 2- Transport
1.0 SCOPE
This document defines the transport constraints on ITU-T Rec. H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 [8] video compression (hereafter called “HEVC”) for Cable Television. In particular, this document describes the transmission of a single HEVC coded video elementary stream constrained per SCTE 215-1 [2] over MPEG-2 transport (ISO/IEC 13818-1 [7] for linear delivery systems supporting ad insertion services [5]. Beyond linear delivery with DPI, signaling is provided for segmentation of contents for xDVR applications.
NOTE 1: The carriage of video in the MPEG-2 service multiplex is described in SCTE 54 [1].
1.1 Background (Informative) This document specifies the transport of an HEVC coded video elementary stream constrained per SCTE 215-1 [2] intended for cable video services. There are other applications such as time-shifting (e.g., PVR/DVR service), Video-on-Demand services, and splicing (e.g., Ad-insertion) that could employ the specifications in this document. However,constraints specific to those applications are outside of the scope of this document at this time.
