+Abstract
+
+ The RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) payload format for generic
+ forward error correction allows RTP participants to improve loss
+ resiliency through the use of traditional parity-based channel codes.
+ This payload format requires four new MIME types, audio/parityfec,
+ video/parityfec, text/parityfec and application/parityfec. This
+ document serves as the MIME type registration for those formats.
+
+1 Introduction
+
+ The RTP payload format for generic forward error correction [1]
+ allows RTP participants to improve loss resiliency through the use of
+ traditional parity-based channel codes. This payload format requires
+ four new MIME types, audio/parityfec, video/parityfec,
+ text/paritfyfec and application/parityfec. RFC 2048 [2] defines
+ procedures for registration of new MIME types within the IETF tree.
+ Furthermore, the Audio/Video Transport working group has defined
+ additional procedures that must be followed when registering RTP
+ payload formats [3]. This document serves as the MIME type
+ registration for those formats based on those procedures.

+2 Registration of audio/parityfec
+
+ To: ietf-types@iana.org
+
+ Subject: Registration of MIME media type audio/parityfec
+
+ MIME media type name: audio
+
+ MIME subtype name: parityfec
+
+ Required parameters: none
+
+ Note that [3] mandates that RTP payload formats without a
+ defined rate must define a rate parameter as part of their
+ MIME registration. The payload format for generic forward
+ error correction [1] does not specify a rate parameter.
+ However, the rate for FEC data is equal to the rate of the
+ media data it protects.
+
+ Optional parameters: none
+
+ Typical optional parameters [3], such as the number of
+ channels, and the duration of audio per packet, do not
+ apply to FEC data. The number of channels is effectively
+ the same as the media data it protects; the same is true
+ for the duration of audio per packet.
+
+ Encoding considerations: This format is only defined for
+ transport within the Real Time Transport protocol (RTP)
+ [4,5]. Its transport within RTP is fully specified with RFC
+ 2733 [1].
+
+ Security considerations: the same security considerations
+ apply to these mime registrations as to the payloads for
+ for them, as detailed in RFC 2733.
+
+ Interoperability considerations: none
+
+ Published specification: This MIME type is described fully
+ within RFC 2733 [1].
+
+ Applications which use this media type: Audio and video
+ streaming tools which seek to improve resiliency to loss by
+ sending additional data with the media stream.
+
+ Additional information: none
