2. MEDIA FRAGMENT SPECIFICATION:

ACTION-192?

<trackbot> ACTION-192 -- Davy Van Deursen to update the specification to state what the processing should do when media fragments request (time dimension) does not match exactly how the media item has been encoded -- due 2010-11-08 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/192

close ACTION-192

<trackbot> ACTION-192 Update the specification to state what the processing should do when media fragments request (time dimension) does not match exactly how the media item has been encoded closed

"When there is a mismatch between the SMPTE time code used by the UA and the encoding settings of the requested media resource (e.g., use of smpte-25 time code when the media resource is encoded at 30fps), the server MUST ignore the RANGE header and returns the whole resource (i.e., a 200). "

in section 6.2.5

Raphael: no objection for this change?

Yves: good

<tomayac> none

ACTION-193?

<trackbot> ACTION-193 -- Erik Mannens to make a schema for the server redirect recipe -- due 2010-11-08 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/193

close ACTION-193

<trackbot> ACTION-193 Make a schema for the server redirect recipe closed

See the figure in http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/WD-media-fragments-spec/#server-triggered-redirect

<foolip> ACTION-192 should also say what clients should do for #t=smpt:...

Raphael: there is a request with a fragment URI and a 30x response with another fragment in the header, which is the situation described in the latest TAG resolution, see http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-tag/2010Nov/0107.html

<Yves> Note that if there is a redirect to a fragment, we should explain the precedence rules for the UA (once the content after the redirect is fetched, to have the right CT)

<Yves> (actually in 5.2.1 Location have no hash, so no issue there)

Yves: actually, the location has no has, only the link, so it is ok

foolip, this is fully specified in the recipe, what do you think is missing?

scribe: is mapping between smpte and bytes can be done on UA side, then recipe 5.1.1, otherwise, recipe 5.1.2

ACTION-194?

<trackbot> ACTION-194 -- Raphaël Troncy to add an intro paragraph in the section 5 to explain which recipes is useful for which dimension -- due 2010-11-08 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/194

close ACTION-194

<trackbot> ACTION-194 Add an intro paragraph in the section 5 to explain which recipes is useful for which dimension closed

Read the first paragraph at http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/WD-media-fragments-spec/#media-fragment-processing

silvia, foolip, could you read this paragraph and states if you have objections

Yves: good, but we should add that this always happen in a particular context
... i.e., within a media element for example

<silvia> hmm, is some of this not rather appropriate for the "implementation" section?

Yves: so we hint that this is a media resource

<Yves> all "recipes" may be applied only if the contex hints that it should be a video

<Yves> (or media resource in general)

Silvia, I had an action to clarify which recipe is made for what ... and I use MAY as it is the most sensible option

<silvia> what if it is just the browser url bar?

Silvia, then we go to 7.1 and your paragraph

<Yves> regular download, however an UA might interrupt and use a recipe

<silvia> Yves, so in the url bar, the browser would start downloading the resource without the fragment, then realize it is a media resource, then do byte ranges?

<Yves> might

<silvia> makes sense

ACTION-197?

<trackbot> ACTION-197 -- Raphaël Troncy to also add in the intro of Section 5 a paragraph explaining the optimistic processing of fragments (using ranges in seconds) -- due 2010-11-09 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/197

close ACTION-197

<trackbot> ACTION-197 Also add in the intro of Section 5 a paragraph explaining the optimistic processing of fragments (using ranges in seconds) closed

Read the second paragraph at http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/WD-media-fragments-spec/#media-fragment-processing

Yves: 1st paragraph should state that the MIME TYPE of the resource is known to be media

Raphael: 2n paragraph is when don't know yet, thus the optimization

<silvia> exceptthe first 5.1.2 reference should be a 5.1.1 reference

Yves: change the "it is recommended" by a MAY

No silvia, we don't have any information about the resource ... no MIME type, no header

scribe: impossible to do 5.1.1

<foolip> My only issue is that OGG is spelled Ogg.

thanks foolip

so I will do these changes

<silvia> as soon as the media element is set up, it is clear

ACTION-198?

<trackbot> ACTION-198 -- Raphaël Troncy to edit section 7.1 for taking into account the cropping resolution -- due 2010-11-09 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/198

close ACTION-198

<trackbot> ACTION-198 Edit section 7.1 for taking into account the cropping resolution closed

Section 7.1: "For spatial URI fragments, the next section describes two distinct use cases, highlighting and cropping. HTML rendering clients are expected to implement cropping as the default rendering mechanism. "

<tomayac> bummer, but makes sense from a "fragment" point of view

ACTION-199?

<trackbot> ACTION-199 -- Raphaël Troncy to add a clarification text regarding the purpose of the grammar -- due 2010-11-24 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/199

ACTION-200?

<trackbot> ACTION-200 -- Raphaël Troncy to send a proposal to close ISSUE-19 that consists in: clarification text + normative parsing algorithm -- due 2010-11-24 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/200

<Yves> would be happy to remove any reference to "highlighting"

both pending for now, will be done after the telecon

ACTION-201?

<trackbot> ACTION-201 -- Silvia Pfeiffer to write a paragraph, note to developers, that they can easily implement a javascript to forward the hash on the URI to the video element -- due 2010-11-24 -- OPEN

<trackbot> http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/tracker/actions/201

close ACTION-201

<trackbot> ACTION-201 Write a paragraph, note to developers, that they can easily implement a javascript to forward the hash on the URI to the video element closed

<scribe> New section in http://www.w3.org/2008/WebVideo/Fragments/WD-media-fragments-spec/#media-fragment-webapps

Could you read what Silvia has written?

<Yves> seems to be an example of what can be done, it should be marked as such (as it could be seen as being normative)

<silvia> it is written under the condition that HTML5 media elements will support media fragment, btw

Raphael: the entire section is informative

<tomayac> do we have a solution for setting 2 videos on a page to say the first 20secs in, and the second 30secs in?

No tomayac

should we?

<tomayac> maybe

<silvia> tomayac, I had an example for it, but I don't think it's necessary

<silvia> if you have more than one video on a page, it's likely to be a gallery-type use case and fragments don't make much sense

<Yves> it is not linked to media fragment, but how to send compound state to a js application that will put the mediafrag on the src elements

<Yves> there is no direct relationship between a fragment on an html page and fragments on video elements within that page

<tomayac> agreed. use case might be to set the thumbs (stills) appropriately

<silvia> tomayac, that would require a temporal media fragment of no duration

silvia, text is agreed, thanks!

ACTION-202?

<trackbot> ACTION-202 -- Silvia Pfeiffer to draft the paragraph that the group will propose to HTML5 regarding how the control of media fragment URI should be done -- due 2010-12-01 -- OPEN
