National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO

10、 and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO

26、ance of video bitstreams as well as decoders. Those normative tests make use of test data (bitstream test suites) provided as an electronic annex to this Recommendation | International Standard and the reference software decoder specified in Rec. ITU-T H.265.2 | ISO/IEC 23008-5. 6.2 Bitstream confor

27、mance Bitstream conformance for Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 is specified by clause C.4 of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2. 6.3 Decoder conformance Decoder conformance for Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 is specified by clause C.5 of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2. 6.4 Procedure to t

28、est bitstreams A bitstream that claims conformance with Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 shall pass the following normative test. The bitstream shall be decoded by processing it with the reference software decoder. When processed by the reference software decoder, the bitstream shall not cause any

29、 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 introduced by transmission, as such errors are highly likely to result in bitstreams that lack conformance to Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC

30、 23008-2. 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., that it does indeed meet all the requirements for the video layer (except Annexes C, D and E) specified in Rec. ITU-T H.265 | IS

31、O/IEC 23008-2 that are tested by the reference software decoder. Additional tests may be necessary to more thoroughly check that the bitstream properly meets all the requirements specified in Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 including the hypothetical reference decoder (HRD) conformance (based on

32、Annexes C, D and E). These complementary tests may be ISO/IEC 2015 All rights reserved BS ISO/IEC 23008-8:2015ISO/IEC 23008-8:2015(E) BS ISO/IEC 23008-8:2015Page: 3 Date Saved: 2014-08-26performed using other video bitstream verifiers that perform more complete tests than those implemented by the re

33、ference software decoder. Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 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

34、recommendations. To check correctness of a bitstream, it is necessary to parse the entire bitstream and to extract all the syntax elements and other values derived from those syntactic elements and used by the decoding process specified in Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2. A verifier may not neces

35、sarily perform all stages of the decoding process specified in Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 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. 6.5 Procedure to test decoder conformance 6.5.1 Conforma

36、nce bitstreams A bitstream has values of general_profile_idc, general_tier_flag, and general_level_idc corresponding to a set of specified constraints on a bitstream for which a decoder conforming to a specified profile, tier, and level is required in Annex A of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 to

37、 properly perform the decoding process. 6.5.2 Contents of the bitstream file The conformance bitstreams are included in this Recommendation | International Standard as an electronic attachment. The following information is included in a single zipped file for each such bitstream. bitstream; decoded

38、pictures or hashes of decoded pictures (may not be present); short description of the bitstream; trace file (results while decoding the bitstream, in ASCII format).In cases where the decoded pictures or hashes of decoded pictures are not available, the reference software decoder shall be used to gen

39、erate the necessary reference decoded pictures from the bitstream. 6.5.3 Requirements on output of the decoding process and timing Two classes of decoder conformance are specified: output order conformance; and output timing conformance.The output of the decoding process is specified in clause 8 and

40、 Annex C of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2. For output order conformance, it is a requirement that all of the decoded pictures specified for output in Annex C of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 shall be output by a conforming decoder in the specified order and that the values of the decoded s

41、amples in all of the pictures that are output shall be (exactly equal to) the values specified in clause 8 of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2. For output timing conformance, it is a requirement that a conforming decoder shall also output the decoded samples at the rates and times specified in Ann

42、ex C of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2. The display process, which ordinarily follows the output of the decoding process, is outside the scope of this Recommendation | International Standard.

43、age: 4 Date Saved: 2014-08-266.5.4 Recommendations (informative) This clause does not form an integral part of this Recommendation | International Standard. In addition to the requirements, it is desirable that conforming decoders implement various informative recommendations specified in Rec. ITU-T

44、 H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2 that are not an integral part of that Recommendation | International Standard. This clause discusses some of these recommendations. It is recommended that a conforming decoder be able to resume the decoding process as soon as possible after the loss or corruption of part of

45、a bitstream. In most cases it is possible to resume decoding at the next start code or slice header. It is recommended that a conforming decoder be able to perform concealment for the coding tree blocks or video packets for which all the coded data has not been received. 6.5.5 Static tests for outpu

46、t order conformance Static tests of a video decoder require testing of the decoded samples. This clause will explain how this test can be accomplished when the decoded samples at the output of the decoding process are available. It may not be possible to perform this type of test with a production d

47、ecoder (due to the lack of an appropriate accessible interface in the design at which to perform the test). In that case this test should be performed by the manufacturer during the design and development phase. Static tests are used for testing the decoding process. The test will check that the val

48、ues of the samples decoded by the decoder under test shall be identical to the values of the samples decoded by the reference decoder. When a hash of the values of the samples of the decoded pictures is attached to the bitstream file, a corresponding hash operation performed on the values of the sam

49、ples of the decoded pictures produced by the decoder under test shall produce the same results. 6.5.6 Dynamic tests for output timing conformance Dynamic tests are applied to check that all the decoded samples are output and that the timing of the output of the decoders decoded samples conforms to the specification of clause 8 and Annex C of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2, and to verify that the HRD models (as specified by the CPB and DPB specification in Annex C of Rec. ITU-T H.265 | ISO/IEC 23008-2) are not viol
