Standards: Appendix P - Other Relevant Standards For Discovery & Control
Here is a list of other standards which relate to discovery and control in ST2110.
This is an Appendix to our series of articles on Standards.
These are useful standards from a variety of organizations that also relate to timing, discovery and control. They are referred to by some of the AMWA NMOS documents:
| Document | Org | Version | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO 13818-1 | ISO | 2023 | MPEG-2 systems layer describing the transport stream format. Currently under review and due to be amended shortly. |
| ISO 20922 | ISO | 2016 | Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) is a lightweight protocol for peer-to-peer connections between devices. Used for Internet-of-Things (IoT) implementations and referred to by the NMOS specifications. |
| CTA-861 | ANSI/CTA | 2023 | A DTV Profile for Uncompressed High-Speed Digital Interfaces. |
| RFC 6455 | IETF | 2011 | The WebSocket Protocol. |
| RFC 6763 | IETF | 2013 | DNS-Based Service Discovery describes DNS-SD. |
| RFC 8553 | IETF | 2019 | Updates RFC 6763 to support node names containing embedded underscores. |
| EDID | VESA | 1.4 | Extended Display Identification Data enumerating the characteristics of a display device. |
| E-EDID | VESA | 1.4 | Enhanced EDID adding support for high definition displays. |
| MPEG-2-TS | ISO | 2023 | The MPEG-2 Transport stream is described in ISO 13818 Part 1. |
| MQTT | ISO | 2016 | See ISO 20922. |
| NDI | Vizrt | 6 | Newtek Network Display Interface. Originally developed by Newtek but now administered by Vizrt. It is an interoperable proprietary standard that is somewhat open for use by developers on multiple platforms. It supports discoverability and very fast low-latency transfers of resolutions up to 4K. More details here: https://ndi.video. |
| Ref-Architecture | JT-NM | 2015 v1.0 | The JT-NM Reference Architecture is a collection of technologies to facilitate interoperability in networked media systems. |
| WebSocket | IETF | 2011 | See RFC 6455. |
