Will codec spec update future? #316
Comments
Yes, we periodically make a new RFC output from the content of this repository and post it at https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/cellar/documents/. Is there a particular codec mapping you're interested in? |
H.264,H.265,EAC-3 are all not include in the latest draft-ietf-cellar-codec memo |
opus and av1,too.They are widely used in Matroska(I think av1 will) |
This one is supported ("A_AC3/BSID10" because E-AC-3 uses a different "bsid" but the frame header is same). |
The codec spec document had a release point and was updated at https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-cellar-codec/. From the wording of the issue I'm uncertain if now it's closed or if there is some other specific goal to close this issue. |
I think the general idea is that the codec definitions for the widely used codecs is lacking and needs some update. It will come but likely after the main Matroska spec is well advanced. Of course, Pull Requests are welcome. |
Translation of above: "This one is supported ("A_AC3 / BSID10" because E-AC-3 uses a different "bsid" but the headers are the same). Regarding whether we should accept the "A_EAC3" codec ID, there is an unresolved issue #230, and more is discussed in the splitter but it is not officially recommended." |
A long time passed,the codec of key have not included in the spec,H.264,H.265 support has been a de-facto standard for a long time |
This is a lot of work to finalize all these documents. We concentrated on the EBML document lately so we can be done with it. Next is the main/general Matroska document. So codecs will have to wait. But if you can spend some time updating the document and submit some pull requests, it's very welcome. |
AV1: We already have a file for that, but it isn't included in the codec mapping spec yet. Probably an oversight. I'll open a separate issue for that. |
It's not an oversight. It's not supposed to be a RFC (for now) but it is the reference document on how to put AV1 into WebM and Matroska. If it's a problem to have non-RFC documents in this repo, I can move it somewhere else. |
AV1: It's not really a problem, just a tad confusing and unclear, that's all. As long as it isn't mentioned anywhere people will rightfully continue to assume we don't have specs for it. |
The discussions to edit this document happen outside of IETF. So I think it should be moved. But you're right we should also make it more visible. Not sure if the new |
That repo would be a good place for the time being. |
