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.
