+
+1. Introduction
+
+ First a brief background on time-codes [SMPTE-12M].
+
+ The time-code system in common use is defined by the Society of
+ Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE); in it, time-codes
+ count frames. A common form of the display looks like a normal clock
+ value (hh:mm:ss.frame). When the frame rate is truly integral, then
+ this can be a normal clock value, in that seconds tick by at the same
+ rate as the seconds we know and love.
+
+ However, NTSC video infamously runs slightly slower than 30 frames
+ per second (fps). Some people call it 29.97, which isn't quite
+ right; to be accurate, a frame takes 1001 ticks of a 30000 tick/
+ second clock. Be that as it may, SMPTE time-codes count 30 of these
+ frames and deem that to make a second.
+
+ This causes an SMPTE time-code display to 'run slow' compared to
+ real-time. To ameliorate this, sometimes a format called drop-frame
+ is used. Some of the frame numbers are skipped, so that the counter
+ periodically 'catches up' (so some time-code seconds actually only
+ have 28 frames in them).
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 2]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ It is worth noting that in neither case is the SMPTE time-code an
+ accurate clock; in the first case, it runs slow, and in the second,
+ the adjustments are abrupt and periodic -- and still not quite
+ accurate. Hence the rest of this document tries to be clear when
+ referring to a second in a time-code as a 'time-code second'.
+
+ However, SMPTE time-codes do run in real-time when used with systems
+ with integral fps (e.g., film content at 24 fps or PAL video).
+
+ This specification defines how to carry time-codes in RTP and RTCP
+ (RTP Control Protocol), associate them with a media stream, and
+ synchronize them with the RTP timestamps. It uses the general RTP
+ header extension mechanism [RFC5285].
+
+2. Requirements Notation
+
+ The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
+ "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
+ document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
+
+3. Design Goals
+
+ What we desire is a system that allows us to associate an SMPTE time-
+ code with some media in an RTP [RFC3550] stream. Since in RTP all
+ media has a clock already, we can often leverage that fact. If we
+ treat the media as having 'segments' of time in which the time-code
+ is simply counting up, then the time-code anywhere within a segment
+ can be calculated if you know:
+
+ o the RTP timestamp of the start of the segment;
+
+ o the time-code of the start of the segment;
+
+ o the counting rate and other parameters of the time-code;
+
+ o the RTP timestamp where you want to know the time-code.
+
+ There are two cases to consider:
+
+ 1. the time-codes are piece-wise continuous with only occasional
+ discontinuities;
+
+ 2. the continuity of the time-codes is not certain (or not known).
+
+ The first can be handled by providing details of the time-code axis
+ and an initial mapping from RTP time to time-code time as well as
+ periodic mappings in RTCP packets. This is defined in Section 6.3.
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 3]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ The second requires in-band signaling within the RTP packets
+ themselves. This is defined in Section 6.4.
+
+ There are applications where the transport of all 8 bytes of the
+ SMPTE 12M time-code are important (e.g., when the date of the time-
+ code must be known or when the RTP transport is used as a transparent
+ pipe). On the other hand, there are cases (e.g., when time-codes are
+ used with compressed audio) when bandwidth is also important. To
+ support both use cases, provision is made for both compact and full
+ forms of the time-code.
+
+4. Requirements and Constraints
+
+ Receivers MUST support time-codes in both RTCP and RTP as well as
+ both forms (compact and full) of the time-code. Senders, of course,
+ are free to choose.
+
+ Note that the compact form allows frame numbers greater than the full
+ form (a field of 6 bits vs. a full binary-coded decimal (BCD) digit
+ and a 2-bit BCD digit, which gives a maximum transmitted value of
+ 29). In some cases, the color frame flag (bit 11) is used to
+ 'extend' the "tens of frames" field from 2 to 3 bits; however, such
+ practices are outside the scope of this specification.
+
+ In the case that a presentation contains more than one stream,
+ senders MUST continue to send the standard RTP synchronization
+ information in RTCP, even if the streams carry SMPTE time-codes that
+ could be used for synchronization. In fact, when time-codes are
+ carried by more than one stream, this document does not constrain the
+ time-codes: at a given point in time, they may be the same, or they
+ may differ (e.g., if they carry the original time-codes of different
+ source material that was edited together).
+
+5. Signaling Information
+
+ If the recipient must ever calculate time-codes based on the RTP
+ times, then some setup information is needed. This MUST be sent out-
+ of-band -- for example, in a SIP offer/answer exchange [RFC3264].
+ Since this specification is a general header extension [RFC5285],
+ when the Session Description Protocol (SDP) is used, the 'extmap'
+ attribute defined by the extension mechanism is also used.
+
+ The setup information should include:
+
+ 1. the duration, in the RTP timescale, of a single frame-count in
+ the 'frames' portion of the time-code (frame_duration)
+
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 4]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ 2. the number of those frames that make a time-code second
+ (frames_per_tc_second); framecounter values may be between 0 and
+ (frames_per_tc_second - 1)
+
+ 3. the drop-frame indication, is-NTSC-drop-frame, which indicates
+ whether the usual drop-frame behavior should be applied or not
+
+ Note that other information we need to do the calculation (e.g., the
+ clock rate of the RTP timestamp) is supplied already and assumed to
+ be available.
+
+ For example, if associated with a video stream with the common time-
+ scale of 90000 ticks per second, then a frame_duration of 3003 and
+ frames-per-tc-second of 30 would yield a 'normal' SMPTE time-code for
+ NTSC video. Similarly, values of 3750 and 24 yield a time-code for
+ 24 fps film content, and so on.
+
+ Note also that we supply explicitly the frame duration and fps, even
+ though they are obviously closely related. This removes any
+ ambiguity of what the counter values should be in the case of drop-
+ frame counting. These three values MUST correspond with each other.
+
+ When the SDP is used, these three parameters are transmitted as
+ extensionattributes, as defined in the header extension specification
+ [RFC5285], with the following ABNF syntax [RFC5234]. The form of the
+ extension attributes is 'owned' by the extension name. These
+ parameters to the extension do not need registration action beyond
+ their documentation here. Note that the parameters are supplied as
+ extension attributes, suitable for in-line use in RTP, even if in a
+ given stream only the RTCP mapping is used.
+
+ digit = "0"/"1"/"2"/"3"/"4"/"5"/"6"/"7"/"8"/"9"
+
+ integer = 1*digit
+
+ frame-duration-length = integer
+
+ timestamp-rate = integer
+
+ frame-duration = frame-duration-length "@" timestamp-rate
+
+ frames-per-tc-second = integer
+
+ drop = "/drop"
+
+ extensionattributes = frame-duration "/" frames-per-tc-second [drop]
+
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 5]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ The frame duration is specified as a count of ticks of a clock that
+ has timestamp-rate ticks per second. It is recommended that the
+ timestamp-rate be the same as the clock rate of the RTP stream in
+ which the extension is embedded, to avoid the loss of accuracy in
+ conversion of timestamps. If the payload type changes during a
+ stream, especially between payloads with different clock rates, it is
+ strongly recommended that the header extension be included on the
+ first packet(s) of the new payload, to set the mapping for the new
+ clock rate explicitly.
+
+ If '/drop' is specified, then the first two frame numbers are omitted
+ from the count of each minute, except for minutes 00, 10, 20, 30, 40,
+ and 50, as documented in Section 4.2.2 of SMPTE specification
+ [SMPTE-12M]. (Note that this usually only applies to NTSC video.)
+
+ The URI used for the signaling is
+
+ "urn:ietf:params:rtp-hdrext:smpte-tc".
+
+ This URI signals the possible presence of associations in RTCP or
+ RTP, as defined below.
+
+ An example in the SDP, for film material, on a stream with a
+ timescale of 600, might be:
+
+ a=extmap:4 urn:ietf:params:rtp-hdrext:smpte-tc 25@600/24
+
+ Another example, for drop-frame NTSC, on a stream with a timescale of
+ 600, might be:
+
+ a=extmap:4 urn:ietf:params:rtp-hdrext:smpte-tc 20@600/30/drop
+
+6. In-Stream Information
+
+6.1. Compact Format of the Time-Code
+
+ A compact binary SMPTE time-code in this design occupies 24 bits. It
+ is NOT formatted in the BCD system, but uses binary fixed-width
+ fields. It has the following structure:
+
+ sign(1) -- 1 for negative, 0 for positive
+
+ hours (5 bits) -- 0 to 23; the values 24-31 are reserved
+
+ minutes (6 bits) -- 0 to 59; 60-63 are reserved
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 6]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ seconds (6 bits) -- 0 to 59; 60-63 are reserved
+
+ frames(6 bits) -- 0 to (frames-per-tc-second - 1)
+
+ Note that these fields are larger than the provision in SMPTE 12M,
+ where BCD (binary-coded decimal) is used (and notably, where only two
+ bits are provided for the tens digit of the frame-count, so frame
+ numbers above 39 cannot be represented).
+
+6.2. Full Format of the Time-Code
+
+ A full SMPTE time-code occupies 64 bits. It is formatted exactly as
+ defined in Sections 7 and 8 of SMPTE 12M [SMPTE-12M], without the
+ 16-bit syncword. The value of the "drop frame flag" MUST agree with
+ the use of the "drop" indicator in the signaling.
+
+ Here are the bit assignments from SMPTE 12M, for information:
+
+ 0--3 Units of frames
+
+ 4--7 First binary group
+
+ 8--9 Tens of frames
+
+ 10 Drop frame flag
+
+ 11 Color frame flag
+
+ 12--15 Second binary group
+
+ 16--19 Units of seconds
+
+ 20--23 Third binary group
+
+ 24--26 Tens of seconds
+
+ 27 Polarity correction
+
+ 28--31 Fourth binary group
+
+ 32--35 Units of minutes
+
+ 36--39 Fifth binary group
+
+ 40--42 Tens of minutes
+
+ 43 Binary group flag BGF0
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 7]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ 44--47 Sixth binary group
+
+ 48--51 Units of hours
+
+ 52--55 Seventh binary group
+
+ 56--57 Tens of hours
+
+ 58 Binary group flag BGF1
+
+ 59 Binary group flag BGF2
+
+ 60--63 Eighth binary group
+
+6.3. Associations in RTCP
+
+ When the time-codes are piece-wise continuous, we then supply in RTCP
+ packets an RTP timestamp and an SMPTE time-code for the start of each
+ run of calculable time-codes. This establishes the time-code for all
+ RTP times greater than or equal to the one given, until a subsequent
+ RTCP packet reestablishes the mapping.
+
+ Note that the RTP timestamp in the RTCP mapping may not match the
+ timestamp of any frame in the media stream. For video, it normally
+ would; but a timestamp transition may happen part-way through a
+ decoded audio frame. Since they share the same clock, the timing of
+ that transition and the timing of the audio stream itself have the
+ same accuracy.
+
+ The RTCP packets need not use the same RTP timestamp as the sender
+ report (or transmission time) in the same RTCP packet. They can be
+ sent 'ahead of need' if possible (e.g., for stored content, when the
+ server can look ahead) or 'just-in-time'. For example, packets sent
+ 'just-in-time' may be sent as early feedback packets, following the
+ rules in [RFC4585], after a discontinuity in the time-code is
+ detected. Such packets allow media-buffering in the client the
+ chance to 'catch' the RTCP before the matching RTP packet is
+ processed and displayed.
+
+ The association is a new RTCP Control Packet Type, using the value
+ 194 (see Section 10). This control packet has one of the two
+ following forms, differentiated by its length.

+
+ For this full time-code (long form), the length takes the fixed value

+
+6.4. Associations in RTP
+
+ When the time-codes are not known to be piece-wise continuous, or
+ absolute surety of mapping is desired, then the mapping can be placed
+ into some or all of the RTP packets. This is a less desirable route;
+ it uses the RTP header extension [RFC5285], which some terminals may
+ find problematic. And clearly placing mapping information in every
+ packet uses more bandwidth.
+
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 9]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ In as many RTP packets as needed (possibly all), an RTP header
+ extension is used [RFC5285] to associate an RTP time to an SMPTE
+ time-code.
+
+ There are two forms of this header extension, again differentiated by
+ their length. The short form associates a compact time-code with the
+ RTP timestamp of the packet. The long form allows associates a full
+ time-code with a timestamp offset from the RTP timestamp of the
+ packet.
+
+ The short form has a length of 3 bytes (24 bits). The long form has
+ a length of 12 bytes (96 bits) and consists of a full SMPTE 12M time-
+ code, followed by a signed 32-bit offset D from the RTP timestamp.
+ If the packet has timestamp T, this establishes an RTP to time-code
+ association for the RTP time T+D.
+
+7. Implementation Note (Informative)
+
+ This section contains a suggestion on how to calculate both a time-
+ code for a time T2, given an initial code at time T1, and the frame
+ duration.
+
+ It might seem that when drop-frame is used, there is a 'fence post'
+ problem: how many minutes in which frame-numbers are dropped have
+ passed since the initial time-code? However, this can be avoided if
+ all calculations are 'zero-based'; then the number of 'fence posts'
+ is known.
+
+ framesSinceTCzero := TimeCodeToFrameCount( initialTimeCode );
+ framesSinceMapping := floor( (T2-T1)/frameDuration );
+ totalFrames := framesSinceTCzero + framesSinceMapping;
+ timeCode := FrameCountToTimeCode( totalFrames );
+
+ The SMPTE engineering guideline [SMPTE-EG40] contains all the
+ appropriate equations, constants, etc. for performing these and other
+ conversions.
+
+8. Discussion (Informative)
+
+ This design has the advantage of not requiring the introduction of
+ new IP packets into the sessions or new data into the main data
+ channel by using low-bandwidth (vanishingly low in the case of
+ streams with no discontinuities), and it is independent of the design
+ of the RTP packets themselves: the RTP profile (including possibly
+ encryption) and the RTP payload format. SMPTE time-codes can be
+ associated with any RTP stream, including those with existing payload
+ formats.
+
+
+
+
+Singer Standards Track [Page 10]
+
+RFC 5484 RTP SMPTE Time-Codes March 2009
+
+
+ It might be argued that we could set the initial mapping also in the
+ SDP, since RTCP packets might get lost. But this means that the SDP
+ now has to have knowledge of the RTP random offset, which is nasty;
+ also, if one puts this RTCP packet into all sender reports, that's
+ probably good enough. Then if you don't have time-codes, you don't
+ have audio-video-sync either.
+
+ This specification associates the time-code with a particular media
+ stream. An alternative would be to make it an RTP stream in its own
+ right; however, the data rate is so low, this seems egregious. By
+ packing it inline, we can do this backwards-compatible for gateways,
+ etc., that already handle dual-stream.
+
+ There is no way described in this document to detect that an RTCP
+ packet has been lost and that a mapping may be being used outside its
+ intended range.
+
+ The design assumes that clients will hold mappings until they are
+ superseded, and that a client may need to buffer some number of
+ upcoming mappings.
+
+9. Security Considerations
+
+ SMPTE time-codes are only informative and there are no known security
+ considerations from associating them with media streams.
+
+10. IANA Considerations
+
+ The RTCP packet type used for SMPTE time-codes has been registered,
+ in accordance with Section 15 of [RFC3550]. IANA has added a new
+ value to the RTCP Control Packet types sub-registry of the Real-Time
+ Transport Protocol (RTP) Parameters registry, according to the
+ following data:
+
+ abbrev. name value Reference
+ --------- ----------------------- ------ ---------
+ SMPTETC SMPTE time-code mapping 194 RFC 5484
+
+ Additionally, IANA has registered a new extension URI to the RTP
+ Compact Header Extensions sub-registry of the Real-Time Transport
+ Protocol (RTP) Parameters registry, according to the following data:
