16、reserved vIntroduction This Recommendation | International Standard establishes conformance test requirements for conformance to ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 Advanced Video Coding. This specification has been jointly developed by ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group (VCEG) and the ISO/IEC Moving

17、Picture Experts Group. It is published as technically-aligned twin text in both organizations ITU-T and ISO/IEC. This document is the text of the ITU-T Rec. H.264.1 | ISO/IEC 14496-4 conformance test of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 video bitstreams and decoders. This specification is specific

18、ally applied to ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10, Advanced Video Coding. The following subclauses specify the normative tests for verifying conformance of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | 14496-10 video bitstreams and video decoders. These normative tests make use of test data (bitstream test suites) provided

19、as an electronic annex to this document, and the reference software decoder specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264.2 | ISO/IEC 14496-5:2001/Amd.6 with source code available in electronic format.

20、 objects Part 4: Conformance testing Amendment 6: Advanced Video Coding conformance Add the following after clause 9: 10 Advanced Video Coding 10.1 Scope This clause specifies tests designed to verify whether bitstreams and decoders meet normative requirements specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC

21、 14496-10. An encoder can claim conformance to ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 if the bitstreams that it generates are conforming bitstreams. Characteristics of coded bitstreams and decoders are defined for ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. The characteristics of a bitstream define the subset

22、 of the standard that is exploited in the bitstream. Examples are the applied values or range of the picture size and bit rate parameters. Decoder characteristics define the properties and capabilities of the applied decoding process. The capabilities of a decoder specify which bitstreams the decode

23、r can decode and reconstruct, by defining the subset of the ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 standard that may be exploited in the bitstreams that it will decode. A bitstream can be decoded by a decoder if the characteristics of the bitstream are within the subset of the standard specified by the

24、 decoder capabilities. Procedures are described for testing conformance of bitstreams and decoders to the requirements defined in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. Given the set of characteristics claimed, the requirements that shall be met are fully determined by ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496

25、-10. This clause summarizes the requirements, cross references them to characteristics, and defines how conformance with them can be tested. Guidelines are given on constructing tests to verify bitstream and decoder conformance. This clause gives guidelines on how to construct bitstream test suites

26、to check or verify decoder conformance. In addition, the test bitstreams implemented according to those guidelines are provided as an electronic annex to this document. 10.2 Normative references 10.2.1 General The following Recommendations and International Standards contain provisions which, throug

H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 10.6.1 Introduction The following subclauses specify the normative tests for verifying conformance of video bitstreams as well a

35、s decoders. Those normative tests make use of test data (bitstream test suites) provided as an electronic annex to this document, and the reference software decoder specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264.2 | ISO/IEC 14496-5 with source code included in electronic format. 10.6.2 Bitstream conformance The bits

36、tream conformance of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 is specified by subclause C.3 in Annex C of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. ISO/IEC 14496-4:2004/Amd.6:2005(E) ISO/IEC 2005 All rights reserved 310.6.3 Decoder conformance The decoder conformance of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 is

37、specified by subclause C.4 in Annex C of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. 10.6.4 Procedure to test bitstreams A bitstream that claims conformance with this standard shall pass the following normative test: The bitstream shall be decoded by processing it with the reference software decoder specif

38、ied in ITU-T Rec. H.264.2 | ISO/IEC 14496-5. When processed by the reference software decoder, the bitstream shall not cause any error or non-conformance messages to be reported by the reference software decoder. This test should not be applied to bitstreams that are known to contain errors introduc

39、ed by transmission, as such errors are highly likely to result in bitstreams that lack conformance to ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. Successfully passing the reference software decoder test provides only a strong presumption that the bitstream under test is conforming to the video layer, i.e.

40、that it does indeed meet all the requirements for the video layer (except Annexes C, D and E) specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 that are tested by the reference software decoder. Additional tests may be necessary to more thoroughly check that the bitstream properly meets all the requi

41、rements specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 including the HRD conformance (based on Annexes C, D and E). These complementary tests may be performed using other video bitstream verifiers that perform more complete tests than those implemented by the reference software decoder. ITU-T Rec.

42、 H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 contains several informative recommendations that are not an integral part of that Recommendation | International Standard. When testing a bitstream for conformance, it may also be useful to test whether or not the bitstream follows those recommendations. To check correctne

43、ss of a bitstream, it is necessary to parse the entire bitstream and to extract all the syntactic elements and other values derived from those syntactic elements and used by the decoding process specified in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. A verifier may not necessarily perform all stages of th

44、e decoding process described in ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 in order to verify bitstream correctness. Many tests can be performed on syntax elements in a state prior to their use in some processing stages. 10.6.5 Procedure to test decoder conformance 10.6.5.1 Conformance bitstreams In this s

45、ubclause, except where stated otherwise, the term “bitstream“ refers to a conforming ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 video bitstream (as defined in this document), that has values of profile_idc, level_idc, and constraint_setX_flag values (where X is a number in the range of 0 to 2, inclusive) c

46、orresponding to a set of specified constraints on a bitstream for which a decoder conforming to a specified profile and level is required in Annex A of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 to properly perform the decoding process. 10.6.5.2 Contents of bitstream file The conformance bitstreams are inc

For output order conformance, it is a requirement that all of the decoded pictures specified for output in Annex C of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10 shall be output by a conforming decoder in the specified order and that the values of the decoded samples in all of the pictures that are output shall be (exactly equal to) the values specified in clause 8 of ITU-T Rec. H.264 | ISO/IEC 14496-10. For output timing conformance, i
