Integrated Workflow with MXF and AAF:  A practical summary of the role of these two formats and their interdependence. : Select
MPEG-2 Operating Ranges & Applications:  This document provides practical guidelines to users of MPEG-2 in the Studio & in other Professional applications by specifying the structure and parameters of the data for interfacing MPEG-2 4:2:2 Profile and digital audio in the professional environment. This document was submitted to the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) for standardisation in April 2001. The SMPTE assigned it to the following SMPTE designations : SMPTE RP213 – MPEG-2 Operating Ranges SMPTE EG38 – MPEG-2 Operating Range Applications : Select
Operating Points for MPEG-2 TS over WANs:  It is recognised that there are many different mechanisms and interfaces to be considered for carriage of MPEG audio and video over a Wide Area Network. This document addresses the direct mapping of MPEG TS into: • An ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) network • PDH/SDH (Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy/Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) • Satellite transmission channels for contribution applications.: Select
Pro-MPEG ATM Interoperability Tests Results:  This White Paper presents the results of the interoperability tests carried out in February 2001 by eight manufacturer members of the Pro-MPEG Forum. Fourteen Operating Points were used as the test-points, based on the Code of Practice devised by the ATM Working Group in the Forum, which is also available on this site. : Select
Professional Video over IP:  A brief published in 2002 outlining the need for a code of Practice on common approaches for the transport of real-time professional video over IP networks. : Select
Transmission of MPEG-2 TS over IP Networks:  This code of practice follows on from the Code of Practice #2, which defined Operating Points for the transmission of professional video over IP networks. This document is for MPEG-2 Transport Streams only. Further codes of practice, also published here, cover additional formats. : Select
Tx of High Bit-Rate Studio Streams on IP networks:  This Code of Practice covers Uncompressed Standard Definition Video, running at 270Mbit/s in a way which will not prevent the carriage of compressed formats which use the same framing structure (e.g. SDTI). It is also intended that this document will be applicable to systems running at 360Mbit/s and HD rates to 1.485Gbit/s and possibly higher. Where practicable this document re-uses practices laid down in Code of Practice #3, also published here. : Select
Working Together with MXF - Issue 1:  This White Paper, first published in 2000 gives a brief introduction to the Material eXchange Format, which was subsequently standardised by the SMPTE in 2004. : Select
Working Together with MXF - Issue 2:  An update to the White Paper originally published in 2000, and introducing the Material eXchange Format. : Select
