Hi, Roni:
Thank for your replies. Your proposed changes look good to me.
I would like to see the remaining minor issues are addressed by authors.

Video)) to Proposed Standard

   

  Hi,

  I have just read this document and have some minor comments, hope it is not 
late to be taken into account.

  1. Section 1:

  [Qin]: It looks this version extends RFC3189 to support some new features.
  However I can not see any dependency to RFC3189 in the introduction section 
until
  I read the last section in this document, is it more straigtforward and clear 
to merge the section 7,8
  to the introduction section and clarify how this document is different from 
RFC3189.

   

  Roni: This document does not extend but obsolete RFC3189, so it should not 
reference it. As for the difference from RFC3189 I think it is better to have a 
separate section.



  [Qin]: Yes, I recheck this document, you are right, this document is 
intending to replace the old feature with new feature, e.g., abandon using 
SMPTE 306M, replace with SMPTE314M. Therefore I agree with your justification. 

   



  2. Section 3.1.1

  "

  3.1.1.  Media Type Registration for DV Video


     Type name:  video

   

     Subtype name:  DV

   

     Required parameters:

   

        encode:  type of DV format.  Permissible values for encode are
           SD-VCR/525-60,
           SD-VCR/625-50,
           HD-VCR/1125-60,
           HD-VCR/1250-50,
           SDL-VCR/525-60,
           SDL-VCR/625-50,
           314M-25/525-60,
           314M-25/625-50,
           314M-50/525-60,
           314M-50/625-50,
           370M/1080-60i,
           370M/1080-50i,
           370M/720-60p,
           370M/720-50p,
           306M/525-60 (for backward compatibility),
           and 306M/625-50 (for backward compatibility).

  "

  [Qin]: In section 7, you claim you have removed SMPTE 306M, since it is 
covered by SMPTE 314M format.
  However in section 3.1.2, the value for SMPTE 306M is still kept in the 
encode list. So the question is
  where do you remove SMPTE 306M in this document? Why SMPTE 306M in the media 
type registration is still kept?
  Does this conflict with what you said in the section 7?

   

  The same comment applies in any place of this document where SMPTE 306M is 
still kept.

   

  Roni: Maybe change the first bullet of section 7

  " Removed SMPTE 306M, since it is covered by SMPTE 314M format"

  To

  "support for SMPTE 306M is only for backward interoperability, since it is 
covered by SMPTE 314M format"

   

  [Qin]: Yes, make sense to me.

   

  3. Section 3.1.1

  "

     Optional parameters:

   

        audio:  whether the DV stream includes audio data or not.
           Permissible values for audio are bundled and none.  Defaults to
           none.

   

     Encoding considerations:

   

           DV video can be transmitted with RTP as specified in RFCXXXX
           (This document).  Other transport methods are not specified.

   

     Security considerations:

   

           See Section 4 of RFCXXXX (This document).

   

     Interoperability considerations:  NONE

  "

   

   [Qin]: Is it real that there is no interoperability consideration since
  Interoperability with Previous Implementations is discussed in the section 8 
of this document?

   

  Roni: Good, add a reference to section 8 of this RFC



  [Qin]:  Your proposal Looks good to me.

   

  4. Section 3.2.1

  "


     Note that the examples in RFC3189 (older version of this document)
     provides incorrect SDP "a=fmtp" attribute usage.

   

  "

  [Qin]: I believe it is not appropriate to spell this note out when this 
document is published but you may put
  it as errata or in the section 7.

   

  Roni: good point. Maybe discuss it in section 8, since this may be an 
interoperability issue





  [Qin]: Good suggestion since "a=fmtp:<format> <format-specific parameters>"
  should not be used in this document, instead, the format-specific parameter 
is incorporated into 

  a = fmtp: <payload type> encode=<DV-video encoding>;audio ...





Also not that the syntax " a=fmtp:<payload type> encode=<DV-video encoding> 
audio=<audio      bundled>"

   

Does not have ";" before the audio while the examples have, I think that ";" 
should separate between the parameters. 

  [Qin]: Good catch, also I notice this rule has already been defined in the 
3rd bullet in the section 3.2.1. However the example didn't follow this.



   

  5.  Section 3.2.1

  "

     The required parameter <DV-video encoding> specifies which type of DV
     format is used.  The DV format name will be one of the following:

   

        SD-VCR/525-60
        SD-VCR/625-50
        HD-VCR/1125-60
        HD-VCR/1250-50
        SDL-VCR/525-60
        SDL-VCR/625-50
        314M-25/525-60
        314M-25/625-50
        314M-50/525-60
        314M-50/625-50
        370M/1080-60i
        370M/1080-50i
        370M/720-60p
        370M/720-50p
        306M/525-60 (for backward compatibility)
        306M/625-50 (for backward compatibility)

  "

  [Qin]: Why you need to repeat the same text in the section 3.1, why not just 
simply reference it described in the section 3.1.

   

  Roni: I do not see this as a major issue. It can stay from my point of view.



  [Qin]: Okay, I am fine to keep as it is.

   

  6. Section 3.2.1

  "

     In order to show whether the audio data is bundled into the DV stream
     or not, a format specific parameter is defined as below:

  "

  [Qin]: s/ a format specifc parameter/ a format of specific parameter

   

  Roni: the current text is OK



  [Qin]:  agree, I realized the format specific paramter defined in the old 
version RFC3189 has been merged as one paramter

  into

  "

  a = fmtp: <payload type> encode=<DV-video encoding>;audio ...

  "



   

  7. Section 3.2.1

  "   The optional parameter <audio bundled> will be one of the following:

  "

   [Qin] s/one of the following/one of the following value.
  One question is:
  How do you distinguish between required parameter or optional parameter in 
the a=fmtp line?

   

  Roni: This is why a ";" should separate between parameters. If audio does not 
exist the default is none



  [Qin]: Good justification, I agree.

   

  8. Section 3.2.2

  "

  3.2.2.  Usage with the SDP Offer/Answer Model

   

     The following considerations apply when using SDP offer-answer
     procedures [RFC3264] to negotiate the use of DV payload in RTP:

   

     o  The "encode" parameter can be used for sendrecv, sendonly and
        recvonly streams.  Each encode type MUST use a separate payload
        type number.

  "  
  [Qin]: When you are talking about encode, you are using "encoding 
type","DV-video encoding", "type of DV format" in the section 3.2,
  and using "encode type" in section 3.2.2, should they be the same thing? why 
not use the same terminology for consistency?

   

  Roni: The only issue I see is in

  "The required parameter <DV-video encoding>" which should be "The required 
parameter "encode""





  [Qin]:I think that is a big mistake that need to be fixed. Since sendonly, 
recvonly are usually defined in SDP as independent attribute,

  I don't why they should define a parameter encode like  "a = sendonly or a 
=recvonly" ?

  Also I think it is necessary to unify the terminology to avoid confusion. 

   

   

  9. Section 3.2.2

  "

     In an offer for unbundled streams, in order to associate the related
     audio and video, the group attribute as defined in the Session
     Description Protocol (SDP) Grouping Framework [RFC5888] can be used.

   

  "

  [Qin]: Does it worth a exmaple to expain how SDP Grouping Framework can be 
used to correlate audio with video data in the section 3.3.1?

   

  Roni: I think that there is example in RFC 5888, so I will leave it to the 
authors.



  [Qin]: Okay.

   

  10. Section 3.3.1

  "

     When this is done, SDP carries several m=?? lines, one for each media
     type of the session (see RFC 4566).

  "
   [Qin]: What do you mean "when this is done"? It is not clear to me from the 
context.

  Roni: to me it looks like if what is said in the previous sentence.



  [Qin]: This is not a big issue, but at the first sight, it is not clear to 
me. Also I realize the text

  comes from the old version RFC3189.

   

  Regards!
