Hello aptX group,

MAYAH have already implemented a different version of "RTP Payload =
Format for Standard apt-X and Enhanced apt-X Codecs", but we support =
this new RFC draft and will adapt our firmware asap!

<?xml:namespace prefix =3D o ns =3D =
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />I think that two types of =
Standard apt-X modes are available: "with sync" and "without sync". How =
these modes will be signalled or could one type ignored?

Best regards,
Hans-Heinrich Hansen

Hello,
This is Michel Quaix from Digigram.
Here are the comments from Digigram:
- At the end of paragraph 3, you wrote "The bit rate of the auxiliary data
channel is 1/4 of the sample frequency." which is 12kbps @ 48kHz. Then you
give an example @ 48kHz in which the auxiliary data bit rate is 16kbps (8
bits every 24 left channel samples @ 48kHz =3D 16kbps).
- In paragraph 6, LSB is defined as the Most Significant Byte instead of
being defined as the Least Significant Byte.

Except for these minor issues, we have implemented this draft, it works and
therefore we support the approval of the draft as an RFC.

Best Regards, Michel QUAIX

IMHO, the "aux=3Dout-of-bound-aux" and "aux-port: <port-number>" =
mechanism - for specifying a separate port number on which an "auxiliary =
data stream" should be sent - needs closer scrutiny.  I don't know of =
another RTP payload format that uses a separate port number that's =
specified in a SDP "a=3D" parameter line, rather than on the "m=3D" =
line.

This raises lots of questions - for example, do packets on the =
"auxiliary data stream" share the same RTP sequence number and timestamp =
space as the 'main stream'?  And what about RTCP?

Does anyone actually implement sending the "auxiliary data stream" on a =
separate port number?  If not, then perhaps this feature should be =
removed from the specification...

	Ross.

Ross,

=20

I now see that defining the "aux=3Dout-of-bound-aux" and "aux-port: =
<port-number>" mechanism as a media type attribute is not correct. =
Definitely makes more sense to define any out of band aux stream in the =
session using the current media type definitions i.e. =
"m=3Dtext","m=3Dapplication", or "m=3Dmessage". I will update this in =
the next version of the draft. Thanks Ross!

>> I think that two types of Standard apt-X modes are available: "with =
sync"and "without sync". How these modes will be signalled or could one =
type ignored?

Answer - Yes, Standard apt-X and E apt-X do have "with sync"and "without =
sync" configurations. I've also not included the ability to embedded =
auxilliary data into the left, right or both configuration that Standard =
apt-X allows. I propose adding =20

1) A media type attribute embedded-sync =3D off/on that applies to both =
variants of apt-X=20

2) Media type attributes embedded-aux-left=3Doff/on and =
embedded-aux-right=3Doff/on that apply to the Standard apt-X variant =
only.

3) A Media type attributes embedded-aux=3Doff/on that applies to the =
Enhanced apt-X variant only.

If there are no objections I'll update section 7 of internet draft with =
these changes. I will also update section 8 "IANA Considerations" with =
these new attribute registrations (Roni Even comments on =
draft-gmassey-avt-rtp-aptx-01, 6th May 2008 - =
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/avt/current/msg09586.html). =
_________________________________________________________________________=
_________________________________________________________

I think there needs to be more discussion on whether synchronisation and =
auxilliary data should either hard configured into an agreed =
configuration for the internet-draft i.e. embedded-sync and embedded-aux =
always on, or whether they should be signalled in an accompanying SDP =
media type definition, i.e. as above. I personally prefer the =
flexibility of signalling but does this break the aims of RTP?

Does anyone have any options on this? Colin?

The status is that I am waiting for a decision from the Chairs as to
whether or not to include G718B in this document or not.  If so, I will
need somebody to supply text (or at least a copy of the G718B spec) --
see attachment.  As far as I'm concerned, the draft (constrained to its
original scope) has been ready for WGLC for at least a year.

Yes.  This would seem not to bode well for participation from Ari.

Background

"draft-ietf-avt-rtp-evrc-nw-05" for EVRC-NW codec payload format specificat=
ion defines the SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" and the "MMM" mode change req=
uest field in the interleaved/bundled payload format for media type EVRCNW.=
  The attribute "mode-set-recv" presents a list of modes which could includ=
e mode-0 for wideband support and/or mode-1 through mode-7 for narrowband s=
upport.  A communication entity can send the SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" =
to inform its communication partner at the far end of the entity's preferen=
ce of incoming traffic for the call session.  Absence of this parameter sig=
nals the preference of mode set {1,2,3,4,5,6,7} for narrowband incoming tra=
ffic only.  The "MMM" mode change request field in the interleaved/bundled =
payload format is a dynamic mechanism reflecting a specific incoming mode t=
ype preferred by a communication entity during a call session.

This contribution presents three change proposals to clarify the interpreta=
tions and usage of these two mode preference specification mechanisms.

Proposal 1

When a communication entity receives from the far end partner a mode change=
 request indicating a preference for narrowband traffic, "draft-ietf-avt-rt=
p-evrc-nw-05" recommends the communication entity to operate its EVRC-NW en=
coder in narrowband mode and transmit narrowband traffic to the far end par=
tner.  It is proposed that the draft mandates a communication entity to ope=
rate its EVRC-NW encoder in narrowband mode and transmit narrowband traffic=
 to the far end partner in the event of receiving a MMM mode change request=
 for narrowband traffic.

This change is necessary because the SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" may not =
be updated during a call session.  In an exemplary configuration, a mobile-=
mobile EVRC-NW wideband communication is established between System A and S=
ystem B where the two systems sent mode-set-recv=3D{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7} to eac=
h other at call setup and MMM =3D 0 during the call.  System A is hard hand=
overed to System C which supports EVRC-NW narrowband modes only.  System C =
does not send "mode-set-recv" to System B during the handover.  After hando=
ver, System C sends MMM with its value set to one of the narrowband modes t=
o System B.  Upon receiving the MMM mode change request with narrowband dec=
oding preference, System B must switch to operate in narrowband mode to tra=
nsmit narrowband encoded traffic to System C.  Otherwise, System C's failur=
e to decode wideband traffic will lead to communication failure.

Original text (section 10)

"A mode request with MMM=3D1, 2, ..., or 7 from a communication partner is =
an implicit indication of the partner's EVRCNW narrowband decoding preferen=
ce.  The encoder of an EVRCNW node receiving the request should honor the r=
equest and operate in narrowband mode."

Modified text (section 10)

"A mode request with MMM=3D1, 2, ..., or 7 from a communication partner is =
an implicit indication of the partner's EVRC-NW narrowband decoding prefere=
nce.  The encoder of an EVRC-NW node receiving the request shall honor the =
request and operate in narrowband mode."


Proposal 2

This proposal suggests editorial changes to further clarify the roles of th=
e SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" and the "MMM" mode change request field to =
avoid potential mis-interpretation and mis-use of the two mechanisms and to=
 ensure proper EVRC-NW decoding preference communication.

Original text (section 10)

Conversely, if mode 0 is not preferred, then there is no indication that mo=
de 0 is supported.

Modified text (section 10)

Conversely, If mode 0 is not preferred for media type EVRCNW0 or EVRCNW1, t=
hen there is no indication that mode 0 is supported.  However absence of th=
is parameter or absence of mode 0 in this parameter for media type EVRCNW s=
hall not preclude mode 0 support during a call where mode 0 may be requeste=
d via the MMM field.



Original text (section 10)

Note, during an active call session using the interleaved/bundled packet fo=
rmat, the MMM mode request received from a communication partner complement=
s the mode set information in mode-set-recv.  A mode request with MMM=3D0 f=
rom a communication partner is an implicit indication of the partner's EVRC=
NW wideband decoding capability and preference.

Modified text (section 10)

Note, during an active call session using the interleaved/bundled packet fo=
rmat, the MMM mode request received from a communication partner can contai=
n a mode request different than the values in the last mode-set-recv attrib=
ute.  The partner's EVRC-NW wideband decoding capability is determined by t=
he latest mode-set-recv attribute or MMM mode request field. For example, a=
 complements the mode set information in mode-set-recv.  A mode request wit=
h MMM=3D0 from a communication partner is an implicit indication of the par=
tner's EVRC-NW wideband decoding capability and preference.


Proposal 3


The MMM mode change request field in the interleaved/bundled payload format=
 provides a means for an EVRC-NW receiver to specify the preferred wideband=
/narrowband operating mode types.  This facilitates the support of the EVRC=
-NW codec design principle to allow a trade-off between subjective quality =
performance and system capacity consideration.  This proposal suggests an a=
ddition of a section to the draft with a guideline for mode change request =
handling in consideration of the EVRC-NW codec design principle.  This guid=
eline is recommended to ensure end-to-end call performance, for example whe=
n there is a mismatch between the local mode support capability/preference =
and the MMM mode change requests received from the far end.

Mode Change Request/Response Considerations

The Interleaved/Bundled packet format for the EVRC family of vocoders suppo=
rts a 3-bit field (MMM) that a communication node can use to indicate its p=
referred compression mode to an opposite node. The concept of the compressi=
on mode (also known as Capacity Operating Point) was introduced to allow a =
controlled trade-off between voice quality and channel capacity. The notion=
 makes it possible to exercise vocoders at the highest possible (average) b=
it-rate (hence, highest voice quality) when the network is lightly loaded. =
Conversely, once the network load increases the vocoders can be requested t=
o operate at lower average bit-rates so as to absorb the additional network=
 load without causing an undue increase in the frame-erasure rates; the und=
erlying premise is that while a higher bit-rate improves the vocoder perfor=
mance, it also increases the network loading, risking a sharp decline in vo=
ice quality should the frame-erasure rate be too high. By contrast, a lower=
 bit-rate mode of operation can result in accommodation of the additional n=
etwork load without causing unduly high frame-erasure rates, resulting in b=
etter overall quality despite the inherently lower voice quality of the low=
er bit-rate mode of the vocoder.
Accordingly, the MMM field should be used to request the far-end to transmi=
t compressed-speech using a mode that provides the best balance between voi=
ce quality and capacity. However, in the case of mobile-mobile calls, for e=
xample, there are two wireless sides involved, each with a potentially diff=
erent network load level and hence a different preferred mode. In such case=
s, achieving optimal end-to-end performance depends on coherent management =
of the operative mode by the two sides. This requires that even if the loca=
l node prefers a higher bit-rate vocoder mode, it should adjust to a lower =
bit-rate mode if requested by the far end, in order to avoid potentially-hi=
gh frame erasure rates due to heavy load at the far end network. For simila=
r reasons, in cases where a mode requested by the far end should not be sup=
ported, it might still be beneficial to consider switching to a supported v=
ocoder mode corresponding to a lower average bit-rate than requested. It is=
 recommended that the next lower average bit-rate supported vocoder mode is=
 used for encoding when a mode requested by the far end is not supported.
A wideband-capable endpoint can use the information conveyed by the C-bit o=
f the RTP payload header to determine the optimal mode to request of the fa=
r end. If the far end cannot provide Mode0 packets (C-bit=3D1), then the ch=
oice of MMM can be based strictly on the local network load. If the C-bit i=
ndicates remote end's Mode0 encoding capability (C-bit=3D0), then even if t=
he local network load is not light, Mode0 can be requested knowing definiti=
vely that it will be supported. This will permit operators to treat wideban=
d-capable mobiles preferentially, should they wish to adopt such policy.


The three proposed changes above are for media type EVRCNW using interleave=
d/bundled payload format only.  They are not applicable to media type EVRCN=
W0 and EVRCNW1 payload formats where the MMM mode change request field is n=
ot supported.

Hi,

>From the draft:

"
   6.  Payload Format Parameters
      This payload format has no parameters.
"

I would suggest that, as the very minimum, some indication of
computational complexity of the bitstream ought to be signaled. My
understanding of VP8 is that it can support bitstream that differ in
decoding complexity by several orders of magnitude (different picture
sizes and frame rates).  The more complex bitstreams cannot practically be
decoded on lower end architectures (cell phones without HW acceleration).

AFAIK, the most common way to signal decoding complexity is in units of
macro blocks per second.  Ranges of MBS/sec are sometime classified into
"levels".

In the light of this discussion I would argue that the second to last
sentence of the security considerations section may be incorrect.  The
sentence reads=20

"  This RTP payload format and its media decoder do not
   exhibit any significant non-uniformity in the receiver-side
   computational complexity for packet processing, and thus are unlikely
   to pose a denial-of-service threat due to the receipt of pathological
   Data.
"=20

I would argue that VP8 carried inside the payload format as proposed does
exhibit such a non-uniformity.  I think I could trivially crash (or at
least "freeze") a system including a VP8 decoder by modifying just a few
packets of a complex packet stream, namely the packets containing the
frame size.  With previous standards, such an exploit was not easy, as it
was trivially possible to reject bitstreams of too high complexity, and
equally trivially possible to identify a non-compliant bitstream (in the
sense of non-conformannt to a negotiated maximum "level").

There were some initial discussions about some of these topics a while
back on the rtcweb list.  Harald mentioned at the time that the VP8
payload relies on non-payload specified signaling for picture size.  If
that's your choice, the payload format should explain so, and how picture
size ties into complexity signaling.

If parameters are going to be included, I would suggest to also address
the profile/version thing.  VP8 contains hooks to support different
versions and profiles (which, I believe, are not used at present).  While
I understand that it is possible to issue a new RFC for updated
versions/added profiles of the payload spec and negotiate based on payload
document number, it would IMO be cleaner and likely more future proof to
signal profile and version (or simply the three bits representing both).

Background

"draft-ietf-avt-rtp-evrc-nw-05" for EVRC-NW codec payload format specificat=
ion defines the SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" and the "MMM" mode change req=
uest field in the interleaved/bundled payload format for media type EVRCNW.=
  The attribute "mode-set-recv" presents a list of modes which could includ=
e mode-0 for wideband support and/or mode-1 through mode-7 for narrowband s=
upport.  A communication entity can send the SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" =
to inform its communication partner at the far end of the entity's preferen=
ce of incoming traffic for the call session.  Absence of this parameter sig=
nals the preference of mode set {1,2,3,4,5,6,7} for narrowband incoming tra=
ffic only.  The "MMM" mode change request field in the interleaved/bundled =
payload format is a dynamic mechanism reflecting a specific incoming mode t=
ype preferred by a communication entity during a call session.

This contribution presents three change proposals to clarify the interpreta=
tions and usage of these two mode preference specification mechanisms.

Proposal 1

When a communication entity receives from the far end partner a mode change=
 request indicating a preference for narrowband traffic, "draft-ietf-avt-rt=
p-evrc-nw-05" recommends the communication entity to operate its EVRC-NW en=
coder in narrowband mode and transmit narrowband traffic to the far end par=
tner.  It is proposed that the draft mandates a communication entity to ope=
rate its EVRC-NW encoder in narrowband mode and transmit narrowband traffic=
 to the far end partner in the event of receiving a MMM mode change request=
 for narrowband traffic.

This change is necessary because the SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" may not =
be updated during a call session.  In an exemplary configuration, a mobile-=
mobile EVRC-NW wideband communication is established between System A and S=
ystem B where the two systems sent mode-set-recv=3D{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7} to eac=
h other at call setup and MMM =3D 0 during the call.  System A is hard hand=
overed to System C which supports EVRC-NW narrowband modes only.  System C =
does not send "mode-set-recv" to System B during the handover.  After hando=
ver, System C sends MMM with its value set to one of the narrowband modes t=
o System B.  Upon receiving the MMM mode change request with narrowband dec=
oding preference, System B must switch to operate in narrowband mode to tra=
nsmit narrowband encoded traffic to System C.  Otherwise, System C's failur=
e to decode wideband traffic will lead to communication failure.

Original text (section 10)

"A mode request with MMM=3D1, 2, ..., or 7 from a communication partner is =
an implicit indication of the partner's EVRCNW narrowband decoding preferen=
ce.  The encoder of an EVRCNW node receiving the request should honor the r=
equest and operate in narrowband mode."

Modified text (section 10)

"A mode request with MMM=3D1, 2, ..., or 7 from a communication partner is =
an implicit indication of the partner's EVRC-NW narrowband decoding prefere=
nce.  The encoder of an EVRC-NW node receiving the request shall honor the =
request and operate in narrowband mode."


Proposal 2

This proposal suggests editorial changes to further clarify the roles of th=
e SDP attribute "mode-set-recv" and the "MMM" mode change request field to =
avoid potential mis-interpretation and mis-use of the two mechanisms and to=
 ensure proper EVRC-NW decoding preference communication.

Original text (section 10)

Conversely, if mode 0 is not preferred, then there is no indication that mo=
de 0 is supported.

Modified text (section 10)

Conversely, If mode 0 is not preferred for media type EVRCNW0 or EVRCNW1, t=
hen there is no indication that mode 0 is supported.  However absence of th=
is parameter or absence of mode 0 in this parameter for media type EVRCNW s=
hall not preclude mode 0 support during a call where mode 0 may be requeste=
d via the MMM field.



Original text (section 10)

Note, during an active call session using the interleaved/bundled packet fo=
rmat, the MMM mode request received from a communication partner complement=
s the mode set information in mode-set-recv.  A mode request with MMM=3D0 f=
rom a communication partner is an implicit indication of the partner's EVRC=
NW wideband decoding capability and preference.

Modified text (section 10)

Note, during an active call session using the interleaved/bundled packet fo=
rmat, the MMM mode request received from a communication partner can contai=
n a mode request different than the values in the last mode-set-recv attrib=
ute.  The partner's EVRC-NW wideband decoding capability is determined by t=
he latest mode-set-recv attribute or MMM mode request field. For example, a=
 complements the mode set information in mode-set-recv.  A mode request wit=
h MMM=3D0 from a communication partner is an implicit indication of the par=
tner's EVRC-NW wideband decoding capability and preference.


Proposal 3


The MMM mode change request field in the interleaved/bundled payload format=
 provides a means for an EVRC-NW receiver to specify the preferred wideband=
/narrowband operating mode types.  This facilitates the support of the EVRC=
-NW codec design principle to allow a trade-off between subjective quality =
performance and system capacity consideration.  This proposal suggests an a=
ddition of a section to the draft with a guideline for mode change request =
handling in consideration of the EVRC-NW codec design principle.  This guid=
eline is recommended to ensure end-to-end call performance, for example whe=
n there is a mismatch between the local mode support capability/preference =
and the MMM mode change requests received from the far end.

Suggested new text

Mode Change Request/Response Considerations
The Interleaved/Bundled packet format for the EVRC family of vocoders suppo=
rts a 3-bit field (MMM) that a communication node can use to indicate its p=
referred compression mode to an opposite node. The concept of the compressi=
on mode (also known as Capacity Operating Point) was introduced to allow a =
controlled trade-off between voice quality and channel capacity. The notion=
 makes it possible to exercise vocoders at the highest possible (average) b=
it-rate (hence, highest voice quality) when the network is lightly loaded. =
Conversely, once the network load increases the vocoders can be requested t=
o operate at lower average bit-rates so as to absorb the additional network=
 load without causing an undue increase in the frame-erasure rates; the und=
erlying premise is that while a higher bit-rate improves the vocoder perfor=
mance, it also increases the network loading, risking a sharp decline in vo=
ice quality should the frame-erasure rate be too high. By contrast, a lower=
 bit-rate mode of operation can result in accommodation of the additional n=
etwork load without causing unduly high frame-erasure rates, resulting in b=
etter overall quality despite the inherently lower voice quality of the low=
er bit-rate mode of the vocoder.
Accordingly, the MMM field should be used to request the far-end to transmi=
t compressed-speech using a mode that provides the best balance between voi=
ce quality and capacity. However, in the case of mobile-mobile calls, for e=
xample, there are two wireless sides involved, each with a potentially diff=
erent network load level and hence a different preferred mode. In such case=
s, achieving optimal end-to-end performance depends on coherent management =
of the operative mode by the two sides. This requires that even if the loca=
l node prefers a higher bit-rate vocoder mode, it should adjust to a lower =
bit-rate mode if requested by the far end, in order to avoid potentially-hi=
gh frame erasure rates due to heavy load at the far end network. For simila=
r reasons, in cases where a mode requested by the far end should not be sup=
ported, it might still be beneficial to consider switching to a supported v=
ocoder mode corresponding to a lower average bit-rate than requested. It is=
 recommended that the next lower average bit-rate supported vocoder mode is=
 used for encoding when a mode requested by the far end is not supported.
A wideband-capable endpoint can use the information conveyed by the C-bit o=
f the RTP payload header to determine the optimal mode to request of the fa=
r end. If the far end cannot provide Mode0 packets (C-bit=3D1), then the ch=
oice of MMM can be based strictly on the local network load. If the C-bit i=
ndicates remote end's Mode0 encoding capability (C-bit=3D0), then even if t=
he local network load is not light, Mode0 can be requested knowing definiti=
vely that it will be supported. This will permit operators to treat wideban=
d-capable mobiles preferentially, should they wish to adopt such policy.


The three proposed changes above are for media type EVRCNW using interleave=
d/bundled payload format only.  They are not applicable to media type EVRCN=
W0 and EVRCNW1 payload formats where the MMM mode change request field is n=
ot supported.

EVRC family of vocoders supports a 3-bit field (MMM) that a communication n=
ode can use to indicate its preferred compression

 too high. By contrast, a lower bit-rate mode of operation can result in ac=

 and hence a different preferred mode. In such cases, achieving optimal end=

 management of the operative mode by the two sides. This requires that even=
 if the local node prefers a higher bit-rate vocoder mode, it should adjust=

 due to heavy load at the far end network. For similar reasons, in cases wh=

   This document specifies real-time transport protocol (RTP) payload
   formats to be used for the Enhanced Variable Rate Narrowband-Wideband
   Codec (EVRC-NW).  Three media type registrations are included for
   EVRC-NW RTP payload formats.  In addition, a file format is specified
   for transport of EVRC-NW speech data in storage mode applications
   such as e-mail.

Hi all,



I just submitted a new version of this draft. Changes from version 05 to 06=
:

1) Adopted changes proposed by Chung-Cheung:

    - Clarification on the usage of the "mode-set-recv" SDP attribute and t=
he MMM field in RTP payload header.

- Add a new section (Section 11) to define the mode change request/response=
 behavior.

2) Fix a typo "prefers"->"prefers" in Section 10.



Diff can be found at http://tools.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=3Ddraft-ietf-avt-rt=
p-evrc-nw-06.txt



Thanks,

Zheng

Dear all,

We just submitted the initial draft of the RTP payload format for HEVC. 
A presentation is planned for the Paris meeting.

    This memo describes an RTP payload format for High Efficiency Video
    Coding (HEVC) [HEVC], which is currently being developed by the
    Joint Collaborative Team on Video Coding (JCT-VC).  The RTP payload
    format allows for packetization of one or more Network Abstraction
    Layer  (NAL)  units  in  each  RTP  packet  payload,  as  well  as
    fragmentation of a NAL unit into multiple RTP packets.  Furthermore,
    it supports transmission of an HEVC stream over a single as well as
    multiple RTP flows.  The payload format has wide applicability in
    videoconferencing,  Internet  video  streaming,  and  high  bit-rate
    entertainment-quality video, among others.

We have submitted an I-D clarifying the offer/answer considerations for
the Annex A flavor of G.723 and the Annex B flavors of G.729, G.729D and
G.729E. This clarification is missing in RFC 4856, leading to interop
issues, for e.g:
http://sipforum.org/pipermail/discussion/2008-January/004026.html

We have a couple of open items in the I-D. We expect the WG discussions
would guide us on how to go about them.

Comments welcome.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts

and G.729 Annex B

   [RFC4856] describes the annexa parameter for G723 and the annexb
   parameter for G729, G729D and G729E. However, the specification does
   not describe the offerer and answerer behavior when the value of the
   annexa or annexb parameter does not match in the SDP offer and
   answer.  This document provides the offer/answer considerations for
   these parameters.

Hi all=2C=20
=20
I just submitted a new version of this draft. Changes from version 05 to 06=
:
1) Adopted changes proposed by Chung-Cheung:
    - Clarification on the usage of the "mode-set-recv" SDP attribute and t=
he MMM field in RTP payload header.
- Add a new section (Section 11) to define the mode change request/response=
 behavior.

2) Fix a typo =93prefers=94->=94prefers=94 in Section 10.

Paul,

I agree with your proposal of (2) for answerer as it makes sure that "annex=
a=3Dno" in G.723 or "annexb=3Dno" in G.729 is negotiated in case offerer re=
quested for.=20

The issue with (4) in offerer is that offerer may ignore or treat as "no" b=
ut answerer treats negotiated parameter as "yes" and answerer exchanges/exp=
ects further media packets based on this assumption which leads to call fai=
lure or interop issue in reality. I agree with (4) in case we get the opini=
on from others that (4) is the best common practice in the industry.

Thanks
Partha

WG,

We have a milestone for this draft and we passed the target date some time =
ago. AFAICT, the current draft has expired and there was no continued work =
on this draft. I wonder whether the WG still has interest in finishing this=
 work. Please reply to this email (cc'ing the payload list) if you have an =
interest/desire in seeing this document finished.

Thanks.

I agree with your proposal of (2) for answerer as it makes sure that "annex=
a=3Dno" in G.723 or "annexb=3Dno" in G.729 is negotiated in case offerer re=
quested for.=20
=20
The issue with (4) in offerer is that offerer may ignore or treat as "no" b=
ut answerer treats negotiated parameter as "yes" and answerer exchanges/exp=
ects further media packets based on this assumption which leads to call fai=
lure or interop issue in reality. I agree with (4) in case we get the opini=
on from others that (4) is the best common practice in the industry.

I'm the source of the issues. :-)

The fundamental point is that RFC4856 specifies a *default* value of 
"yes" for annexa and annexb. This means that if annexa/annexb is not 
specified in an answer, then it will default to yes, even if the offer 
contained "no".

I see a few ways to fix this:

1) revise the IANA registration for annexa and annexb to remove the
    default, at least when used with O/A. Instead specify the defaulting
    separately for offers and answers.

2) REQUIRE that the answer contain "no" if the offer contained "no".

3) permit the answer to contain "yes" (explicitly or by default)
    when the offer contained "no", and specify that this still means
    that the annex is *not* to be used.

4) forbid the answer from *explicitly* containing "yes" when the
    offer contained "no", but allow the answer to *implicitly* contain
    "yes" (via the default) and ignore it/treat it as "no".

None of these are ideal. (1) is problematic because this is used in 
non-O/A contexts, such as RSVP. (2) begs the question of what should be 
done if this is violated. (3) risks failing to recognize that the two 
sides disagree. (4) is pragmatic but seems to violate the spirit of 
defaults.

I guess my preference is to make (2) normative for the answerer, while 
making (4) normative for the offerer, and put enough words in so its 
very clear what is being specified and why.

	Thanks,
	Paul

I must *really* be missing something here; why does the usage of G.729 
Annex B have to be symmetrical? Until I saw this thread, it was always 
my understanding that the 'annexb' format parameter for G.729 in SDP 
indicated the preference of the endpoint sending that parameter. Like 
nearly everything else in SDP, it indicates what that endpoint is 
*prepared to accept*, and has nothing at all to do with what it will (or 
could) send.

Unless that's a completely broken understanding, then these 'interop' 
issues are really just very poorly coded implementations. I would 
interpret the current RFC language as follows:

1) If an offer/answer contains 'annexb=no', the receiver of that 
offer/answer MUST NOT send G.729 Annex B SID frames to the 
offering/answering endpoint.

2) If an offer/answer contains 'annexb=yes', the receiver of that 
offer/answer SHOULD send G.729 Annex B SID frames to the 
offering/answering endpoint.

3) An answer's value for the 'annexb' parameter is completely 
independent of the value (if any) present in the offer it is answering.

Kevin,

First of all, from RFC3264, I agree with you that for things like IP
addresses, ports, payload types, ptime, the SDP that one party sends
indicates the address/port/PT/ptime that the sender would like to receive
on.  However, I don't believe this is generally correct for all
parameters.  For instance, for codecs (again from RFC3264), the codec(s)
included in an SDP offer indicates the codec(s) the offerer is willing to
send AND receive (if the directional attribute is =91sendrecv=92).  As an
example, if party A is the offerer and sends G.729 & G.711 in its SDP
offer, it is saying that it is willing to use either codec.  If the
answerer replies with G.711, then it is only willing to use G.711, and then
G.729 will not be used in either direction.



Turning now to silence suppression, the situation does not seem very
clear.  This is what RFC3264 has to say about fmtp parameters such as
=91annexb=92 :



   The interpretation of fmtp parameters in an offer depends on the

   parameters.  In many cases, those parameters describe specific

   configurations of the media format, and should therefore be processed

   as the media format value itself would be.  This means that the same

   fmtp parameters with the same values MUST be present in the answer if

   the media format they describe is present in the answer.  Other fmtp

   parameters are more like parameters, for which it is perfectly

   acceptable for each agent to use different values.  In that case, the

   answer MAY contain fmtp parameters, and those MAY have the same

   values as those in the offer, or they MAY be different.  SDP

   extensions that define new parameters SHOULD specify the proper

   interpretation in offer/answer.



To me, =91annexb=92 is more like a parameter in this sense and, in this cas=
e,
everything is allowed =96 the answer may contain the same fmtp or different=
.
 RFC3264 doesn=92t appear to specify the interpretation.  The problem is th=
at
I don't know of anywhere else where the interpretation is specified
either.  RFC4856  specifies the parameter =91annexb=92, but doesn=92t say w=
hether
it can be used asymmetrically (or how).  The only other guidance I can find
on this is elsewhere in RFC3264:



   The list of media formats for each media stream conveys two pieces of

   information, namely the set of formats (codecs and any parameters

   associated with the codec, in the case of RTP) that the offerer is

   capable of sending and/or receiving (depending on the direction

   attributes)...

   ...For a sendrecv stream, the offer SHOULD indicate those

   codecs that the offerer is willing to send and receive with.



So, this appears to be lumping codec parameters with codecs and so both
should behave in the same way.  If we take this interpretation, then
indicating =91annexb=3Dno=92 indicates that the sender of this SDP is willi=
ng to
send and receive with silence suppression off.  So, according to this, if
the offerer sends =91annexb=3Dyes=92 in the offer and the answerer sends ba=
ck
=91annexb=3Dno=92, then there is a mismatch and the offerer should send a
re-INVITE with =91annexb=3Dno=92 to resolve the conflict.  According to thi=
s
interpretation, we cannot have an asymmetric use of silence suppression.
However,  from the discussion we're having, I can see that all of this is
somewhat open to interpretation (since the specs do not seem to be clear)
and I agree with the authors of this ID that we need some clarification as
to how this issue should be dealt with (and whether asymmetric use of
annexb should be allowed and, if so, how).


Regards.  Harprit.

<br>
I&#39;m the source of the issues. :-)<br>
<br>
The fundamental point is that RFC4856 specifies a *default* value of<br>
&quot;yes&quot; for annexa and annexb. This means that if annexa/annexb is =
not<br>
specified in an answer, then it will default to yes, even if the offer<br>
contained &quot;no&quot;.<br>
<br>
I see a few ways to fix this:<br>
<br>
1) revise the IANA registration for annexa and annexb to remove the<br>
default, at least when used with O/A. Instead specify the defaulting<br>
separately for offers and answers.<br>
<br>
2) REQUIRE that the answer contain &quot;no&quot; if the offer contained &q=
uot;no&quot;.<br>
<br>
3) permit the answer to contain &quot;yes&quot; (explicitly or by default)<=
br>
when the offer contained &quot;no&quot;, and specify that this still means<=
br>
that the annex is *not* to be used.<br>
<br>
4) forbid the answer from *explicitly* containing &quot;yes&quot; when the<=
br>
offer contained &quot;no&quot;, but allow the answer to *implicitly* contai=
n<br>
&quot;yes&quot; (via the default) and ignore it/treat it as &quot;no&quot;.=
<br>
<br>
None of these are ideal. (1) is problematic because this is used in<br>
non-O/A contexts, such as RSVP. (2) begs the question of what should be<br>
done if this is violated. (3) risks failing to recognize that the two<br>
sides disagree. (4) is pragmatic but seems to violate the spirit of<br>
defaults.<br>
<br>
I guess my preference is to make (2) normative for the answerer, while<br>
making (4) normative for the offerer, and put enough words in so its<br>
very clear what is being specified and why.<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
I must *really* be missing something here; why does the usage of G.729 Anne=
x B have to be symmetrical? Until I saw this thread, it was always my under=
standing that the &#39;annexb&#39; format parameter for G.729 in SDP indica=
ted the preference of the endpoint sending that parameter. Like nearly ever=
ything else in SDP, it indicates what that endpoint is *prepared to accept*=
, and has nothing at all to do with what it will (or could) send.<br>

<br>
Unless that&#39;s a completely broken understanding, then these &#39;intero=
p&#39; issues are really just very poorly coded implementations. I would in=
terpret the current RFC language as follows:<br>
<br>
1) If an offer/answer contains &#39;annexb=3Dno&#39;, the receiver of that =
offer/answer MUST NOT send G.729 Annex B SID frames to the offering/answeri=
ng endpoint.<br>
<br>
2) If an offer/answer contains &#39;annexb=3Dyes&#39;, the receiver of that=
 offer/answer SHOULD send G.729 Annex B SID frames to the offering/answerin=
g endpoint.<br>
<br>
3) An answer&#39;s value for the &#39;annexb&#39; parameter is completely i=
ndependent of the value (if any) present in the offer it is answering.<br>

<br>
[RFC4856] describes the annexa parameter for G723 and the annexb<br>
parameter for G729, G729D and G729E. However, the specification does<br>
not describe the offerer and answerer behavior when the value of the<br>
annexa or annexb parameter does not match in the SDP offer and<br>
answer. This document provides the offer/answer considerations for<br>
these parameters.<br>

Clarification:

In my comments on the draft I was not questioning the assumption of that 
draft that a common value of this parameter is *negotiated* via O/A. 
*If* you accept that assumption then my comments hopefully make sense.

But if there is debate regarding whether the parameter is negotiated or 
declarative, then that needs to be settled first, before nailing down 
clarifications for how the negotiation happens.

Not being a codec person, I don't know what the common practice is here. 
So I'm going to let those that have the knowledge argue that.

	Thanks,
	Paul

Correct on all points; your comments make complete sense if 'annexb' is=20

I'm not a codec person (although I'd probably be willing to play one on=20

parameters that are declarative already that I don't see any need for=20
this one to have to be negotiated. The impact of using Annex B or not is=20
purely on one direction of the media stream, and it's not even mandatory=20
that the encoder use Annex B mode just because 'annexb=3Dyes'. Granted,=20

them being willing to do so while at the same time disallowing reception=20

Speaking as a codec person :-), I think the draft does address a real issue
and is reasonably clear in its content.  However, it does not appear to
address (as far as I can see), the case where an asymmetric use of G.729B
is required.  This is an actual issue as we are faced with a customer
requirement where the use of G.729B is required in one direction and not
the other (for bandwidth reasons).  Given the current specs do not appear
to definitively cover this case, it would be good to see if this can be
addressed through the proposed draft.

Correct on all points; your comments make complete sense if &#39;annexb&#39=

<br>
I&#39;m not a codec person (although I&#39;d probably be willing to play on=

mat parameters that are declarative already that I don&#39;t see any need f=

 purely on one direction of the media stream, and it&#39;s not even mandato=

<br>
First of all, from RFC3264, I agree with you that for things like IP<br>
addresses, ports, payload types, ptime, the SDP that one party sends<br>
indicates the address/port/PT/ptime that the sender would like to<br>
receive on. However, I don&#39;t believe this is generally correct for all<=
br>
parameters. For instance, for codecs (again from RFC3264), the codec(s)<br>
included in an SDP offer indicates the codec(s) the offerer is willing<br>
to send AND receive (if the directional attribute is =91sendrecv=92). As an=
<br>
example, if party A is the offerer and sends G.729 &amp; G.711 in its SDP<b=
r>
offer, it is saying that it is willing to use either codec. If the<br>
answerer replies with G.711, then it is only willing to use G.711, and<br>
then G.729 will not be used in either direction.<br>
<br>
Turning now to silence suppression, the situation does not seem very<br>
clear. This is what RFC3264 has to say about fmtp parameters such as<br>
=91annexb=92 :<br>
<br>
The interpretation of fmtp parameters in an offer depends on the<br>
<br>
parameters. In many cases, those parameters describe specific<br>
<br>
configurations of the media format, and should therefore be processed<br>
<br>
as the media format value itself would be. This means that the same<br>
<br>
fmtp parameters with the same values MUST be present in the answer if<br>
<br>
the media format they describe is present in the answer. Other fmtp<br>
<br>
parameters are more like parameters, for which it is perfectly<br>
<br>
acceptable for each agent to use different values. In that case, the<br>
<br>
answer MAY contain fmtp parameters, and those MAY have the same<br>
<br>
values as those in the offer, or they MAY be different. SDP<br>
<br>
extensions that define new parameters SHOULD specify the proper<br>
<br>
interpretation in offer/answer.<br>
<br>
To me, =91annexb=92 is more like a parameter in this sense and, in this<br>
case, everything is allowed =96 the answer may contain the same fmtp or<br>
different. RFC3264 doesn=92t appear to specify the interpretation. The<br>
problem is that I don&#39;t know of anywhere else where the interpretation<=
br>
is specified either. RFC4856 specifies the parameter =91annexb=92, but<br>
doesn=92t say whether it can be used asymmetrically (or how). The only<br>
other guidance I can find on this is elsewhere in RFC3264:<br>
<br>
The list of media formats for each media stream conveys two pieces of<br>
<br>
information, namely the set of formats (codecs and any parameters<br>
<br>
associated with the codec, in the case of RTP) that the offerer is<br>
<br>
capable of sending and/or receiving (depending on the direction<br>
<br>
attributes)...<br>
<br>
...For a sendrecv stream, the offer SHOULD indicate those<br>
<br>
codecs that the offerer is willing to send and receive with.<br>
<br>
So, this appears to be lumping codec parameters with codecs and so both<br>
should behave in the same way. If we take this interpretation, then<br>
indicating =91annexb=3Dno=92 indicates that the sender of this SDP is willi=
ng<br>
to send and receive with silence suppression off. So, according to<br>
this, if the offerer sends =91annexb=3Dyes=92 in the offer and the answerer=
<br>
sends back =91annexb=3Dno=92, then there is a mismatch and the offerer shou=
ld<br>
send a re-INVITE with =91annexb=3Dno=92 to resolve the conflict. According =
to<br>
this interpretation, we cannot have an asymmetric use of silence<br>
suppression. However, from the discussion we&#39;re having, I can see that<=
br>
all of this is somewhat open to interpretation (since the specs do not<br>
seem to be clear) and I agree with the authors of this ID that we need<br>
some clarification as to how this issue should be dealt with (and<br>
whether asymmetric use of annexb should be allowed and, if so, how).<br>

<br>
We have a couple of open items in the I-D. We expect the WG<br>
discussions<br>
would guide us on how to go about them.<br>
<br>
Comments welcome.<br>
<br>
<br>
I&#39;m the source of the issues. :-)<br>
<br>
The fundamental point is that RFC4856 specifies a *default* value of<br>
&quot;yes&quot; for annexa and annexb. This means that if annexa/annexb is =
not<br>
specified in an answer, then it will default to yes, even if the<br>
offer<br>
contained &quot;no&quot;.<br>
<br>
I see a few ways to fix this:<br>
<br>
1) revise the IANA registration for annexa and annexb to remove the<br>
default, at least when used with O/A. Instead specify the defaulting<br>
separately for offers and answers.<br>
<br>
2) REQUIRE that the answer contain &quot;no&quot; if the offer contained &q=
uot;no&quot;.<br>
<br>
3) permit the answer to contain &quot;yes&quot; (explicitly or by default)<=
br>
when the offer contained &quot;no&quot;, and specify that this still means<=
br>
that the annex is *not* to be used.<br>
<br>
4) forbid the answer from *explicitly* containing &quot;yes&quot; when the<=
br>
offer contained &quot;no&quot;, but allow the answer to *implicitly* contai=
n<br>
&quot;yes&quot; (via the default) and ignore it/treat it as &quot;no&quot;.=
<br>
<br>
None of these are ideal. (1) is problematic because this is used in<br>
non-O/A contexts, such as RSVP. (2) begs the question of what<br>
should be<br>
done if this is violated. (3) risks failing to recognize that<br>
the two<br>
sides disagree. (4) is pragmatic but seems to violate the spirit of<br>
defaults.<br>
<br>
I guess my preference is to make (2) normative for the answerer,<br>
while<br>
making (4) normative for the offerer, and put enough words in so its<br>
very clear what is being specified and why.<br>
<br>
<br>
I must *really* be missing something here; why does the usage of<br>
G.729 Annex B have to be symmetrical? Until I saw this thread, it<br>
was always my understanding that the &#39;annexb&#39; format parameter for<=
br>
G.729 in SDP indicated the preference of the endpoint sending that<br>
parameter. Like nearly everything else in SDP, it indicates what<br>
that endpoint is *prepared to accept*, and has nothing at all to do<br>
with what it will (or could) send.<br>
<br>
Unless that&#39;s a completely broken understanding, then these<br>
&#39;interop&#39; issues are really just very poorly coded implementations.=
<br>
I would interpret the current RFC language as follows:<br>
<br>
1) If an offer/answer contains &#39;annexb=3Dno&#39;, the receiver of that<=
br>
offer/answer MUST NOT send G.729 Annex B SID frames to the<br>
offering/answering endpoint.<br>
<br>
2) If an offer/answer contains &#39;annexb=3Dyes&#39;, the receiver of that=
<br>
offer/answer SHOULD send G.729 Annex B SID frames to the<br>
offering/answering endpoint.<br>
<br>
3) An answer&#39;s value for the &#39;annexb&#39; parameter is completely<b=
r>
independent of the value (if any) present in the offer it is answering.<br>

[RFC4856] describes the annexa parameter for G723 and the annexb<br>
parameter for G729, G729D and G729E. However, the<br>
specification does<br>
not describe the offerer and answerer behavior when the<br>
value of the<br>
annexa or annexb parameter does not match in the SDP offer and<br>
answer. This document provides the offer/answer<br>
considerations for<br>
these parameters.<br>

That requirement is counter to what the draft proposes. We can't have it=20
both ways: either the G.729 'annexb' format parameter is a negotiated=20
parameter (in which case its usage is symmetrical by definition) or it=20
is a declarative parameter (in which case the usage can be, but is not=20
required to be, asymmetrical).

Hi,

There were some changes in the draft after the WGLC.

 

The changes provide clarification on the usage of the "mode-set-recv" SDP
attribute and the MMM field in RTP payload header and add a new section
(Section 11) to define the mode change request/response behavior. 

Even though they are more editorial as can be seen
http://tools.ietf.org/rfcdiff?url2=draft-ietf-avt-rtp-evrc-nw-06.txt 

 

I would like to start a second Working Group Last Call on
draft-ietf-avt-rtp-evrc-nw-06
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-avt-rtp-evrc-nw-06>  , RTP payload
format for Enhanced Variable Rate Narrowband-Wideband Codec  (EVRC-NW) in
order to allow the WG to review the changes and comment.

 

 

The WGLC will end on March 14th , 2012

Please review the draft and send comments to the list.

 

 

 

 

Roni Even

Payload co-chair

Yes, I concur that the draft (as it currently stands) cannot accommodate an
asymmetric use of G.729B.  However, if we agree that both scenarios are
true, real-world scenarios that need addressing, ie (a) the negotiated case
where the use of G.729B is symmetric and (b) the declarative case where the
use of G.729B can be asymmetric (and, in my opinion, both are valid
scenarios), then I would suggest that we need to come up with a way of
handling both situations (perhaps through the use of an extra fmtp
parameter indicating whether the use is declarative or negotiated - or any
other suggestions the group might have).

If not, and we are only to allow the negotiated, symmetric use, then I'd
appreciate any suggestions from the group for how my organisation might
deal with the requirement of an asymmetric use of G.729B mentioned below.

Speaking as a codec person :-), I think the draft does address a real<br>

That requirement is counter to what the draft proposes. We can&#39;t have i=
t both ways: either the G.729 &#39;annexb&#39; format parameter is a negoti=
ated parameter (in which case its usage is symmetrical by definition) or it=
 is a declarative parameter (in which case the usage can be, but is not req=
uired to be, asymmetrical).<br>

<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0I&#39;m the source of the issues. :-)<br>
<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0The fundamental point is that RFC4856 specifies a *=
default*<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0value of<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0&quot;yes&quot; for annexa and annexb. This means t=

 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0annexa/annexb is not<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0specified in an answer, then it will default to yes=
, even if the<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0offer<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0contained &quot;no&quot;.<br>
<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0I see a few ways to fix this:<br>
<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A01) revise the IANA registration for annexa and anne=

 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0contained &quot;no&quot;.<br>
<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A03) permit the answer to contain &quot;yes&quot; (ex=
plicitly or by default)<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0when the offer contained &quot;no&quot;, and specif=
y that this still means<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0that the annex is *not* to be used.<br>
<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A04) forbid the answer from *explicitly* containing &=
quot;yes&quot; when the<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0offer contained &quot;no&quot;, but allow the answe=
r to *implicitly*<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0contain<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0&quot;yes&quot; (via the default) and ignore it/tre=
at it as &quot;no&quot;.<br>
<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0None of these are ideal. (1) is problematic because=
 this is<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0used in<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0non-O/A contexts, such as RSVP. (2) begs the questi=
on of what<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0should be<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0done if this is violated. (3) risks failing to reco=

 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0the two<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0sides disagree. (4) is pragmatic but seems to viola=

 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0defaults.<br>
<br>
 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0I guess my preference is to make (2) normative for =

Hi Harpit,

Thanks for looking into the draft. I agree with you that asymmetric annexb =
negotiation is not taken into the account in the draft currently. In fact, =
I come across the scenario wherein annexb is not supported by offerer ,ment=
ioned in offer SDP as annexb=3Dno and answerer assumes about annexb support=
 (no annexb parameter in answer) in offerer side which leads to the call fa=
ilure.=20

I'm not very clear on the bandwidth optimization based on asymmetric annexb=
 parameter negotiation. Could you please elaborate.

Thanks
Partha
