Clarke: action from co-chairs to draft statement on HTML5 LC bugs
15:07:57 [francois]
... Kaz, status?
15:08:30 [francois]
Kaz: Discussed with co-chairs. But in the end, we won't need comments sent by the IG since comments have already been sent.
15:08:46 [francois]
Clarke: so we won't send an endorsement from the Media Pipeline TF?
15:09:10 [francois]
Kaz: for HTML5 LC bugs, endorsement is not really needed. What's important is to fill out the bugs, which was done.
15:09:24 [francois]
... I'll point the interest of the IG to Paul Cotton.
15:09:26 [Zakim]
+Tatsuya_Igarashi
15:09:43 [francois]
Clarke: so the result is that anyone here should be encouraged to send comments themselves.
15:10:46 [francois]
Jan: If I wanted to get further clarification about proposed solutions, should I take it in bugzilla or discuss it here?

ISSUE-18 -- Video tag support of MPEG2-TS -- raised

15:17:47 [francois]
Jan: [scribe missed beginning of discussion because of echo]
15:18:16 [francois]
... Trying to map what was done in Open IPTV Forum. It's possible that most of it is covered.
15:18:22 [francois]
... One issue was identified.
15:18:51 [francois]
... The ability to retrieve which components are available and if there's any change to components that are available.
15:19:09 [francois]
... Right now, you only get "change" events on the default track, but not on others.
15:19:20 [francois]
... That's higlighted in point number 1.
15:19:30 [francois]
s/higlighte/highlighte

... The third one, there are two aspects. What you set the system preferences, and the playout preferences.
15:20:47 [francois]
... [example given with subtitles]
15:21:09 [francois]
... There may need to be something to be done here. If we thing it's at the system level, we may not need to do anything in the browser.
15:21:46 [Clarke]
q+ bob
15:21:54 [francois]
... Fourth point: I haven't been able to map precisely what's available. Something to do here, I think.
15:22:03 [francois]
... Fifth point is similar to fourth point.
15:22:25 [francois]
... Sixth point is that I'd like to explore something similar to the video tag in SVG.
15:22:47 [francois]
... so that you don't need to embed an HTML video tag. What can we expect W3C to do here?

15:24:31 [francois]
Jan: I made a reference to the DAE spec where we have an appendix that explained what was available. Now the video tag is more complete, should be updated.

+??P8
15:24:52 [francois]

+Bob; got it
15:25:50 [kaz]
Bob: happy to provide use cases
15:25:50 [francois]
Bob: I had a couple of comments and questions. In general, we take a deep look at requirements at American requirements for multi-video and multi-audio. I think they are covered, now. Don't have any problem with a use case even if it's covered.
15:26:00 [kaz]
s/Bob: happy to provide use cases//
15:26:32 [francois]
... I filed 3 bugs for HTML5, and one of the bugs covers what you describe.
15:26:42 [francois]
Jan: missed that, could you reply on the mailing-list and send a pointer?
15:27:08 [francois]
Bob: yes, will do that. Last point is that I don't know what it means for the video tag to be in SVG, could you clarify?
15:27:26 [francois]
Jan: I'd like to have the same semantics for SVG as well.
15:27:40 [Zakim]
+ +1.404.242.aabb
15:27:40 [francois]
... SVG has its own video tag, but it's not the same.
15:27:44 [francois]
Bob: Oh, I see.
15:28:25 [francois]
... From a use case perspective, if you want to use SVG as part of the UI, you could use that separately, right?
15:28:37 [francois]
Jan: yes, but then you're embedding, not using SVG natively.

15:29:04 [francois]
... Maybe W3C has a plan to merge both video.
15:30:04 [francois]
Bob: the more global issue is we've identified, at CableLabs, that it would be valuable to take advantage of new media rendering capabilities in the user agent, but have all the API and infrastructure provided by the video tag.
15:30:20 [francois]
... One example is content protection via a plugin mechanism.
15:30:35 [kaz]
q+
15:30:41 [francois]
... You'd still have support for tracks, etc.
15:30:50 [francois]
... It sounds that this concept could also apply to SVG.
15:30:53 [kaz]
q-
15:31:08 [kaz]
q+ to ask if we want to meet with SVG WG during TPAC2011
15:31:19 [francois]
Jan: I'm wondering how transparent we can make this.
15:32:16 [francois]
... There might be an advantage to make the video tag a child of your object in order to capture what is not covered by the video tag.
15:32:35 [francois]
... I'm just exploring this possibility, to see if it might work with browser manufacturers.
15:32:49 [francois]
... I suspect it might be preferable for them.
15:32:49 [Clarke]
q?
15:33:04 [francois]
... I haven't checked, so that's why I'm still in exploring phase.
15:33:51 [francois]
Bob: OK. One other thing the group could be interested in. A comment from Philipp from Opera where he references an experience in the WhatWG about streaming and Peer2Peer media
15:34:18 [francois]
... It introduces a local stream that can be associated with a media element such as a video tag.
15:34:25 [Clarke]
Bob to send out link to MediaStream object
15:34:32 [francois]
... Will provide a pointer.
15:34:53 [francois]

... Preparing agenda with OC right now, good topic.
15:37:10 [francois]
... Also, why don't we hold a joint meeting with SVG during TPAC?
15:37:39 [francois]
... SVG will hold a F2F meeting there, so might be useful to hold a joint meeting.
15:38:01 [francois]
Clarke: could be interesting. By that time, we might have a better idea to bring the two tags together.
15:38:51 [francois]
Kaz: there is no plan to hold a Web and TV IG F2F meeting during TPAC since we have one in September, but it still makes sense to hold joint meetings with other groups.

15:44:39 [francois]

Issue 34 is adaptive video. the e-mails used the wrong issue number
15:46:45 [kaz]
ok :)
15:46:52 [francois]
Duncan: wondering if anyone has any other thoughts on this.
15:47:28 [francois]
Bob: Continuing to refer to it as "viewport" issue is good. There seems to be general agreement that the use case is valid.
15:47:37 [francois]
... That's my personal feeling.
15:48:14 [francois]
Clarke: In one of the email discussions, it's linked to ISSUE-34, so maybe we need to recapture that as part of ISSUE-37
15:48:45 [francois]
... What I would really like is if we could test some of these and see if they really work so that we can clean up whether that's covered or whether it generates new requirements.
15:48:58 [francois]
Duncan: yes, we'll try.
15:49:45 [francois]
Bob: Two of the subcases have predominated. One if to extend map to video. The other is to take a subportion of a mosaic and manipulate as you could with the full video stream.
15:49:50 [francois]
... Perhaps worth documenting.
15:50:33 [francois]
Jan: When referring to SVG, it seems that we embed, shouldn't we highlight that it would be better not to have to embed SVG in your HTML?
15:50:42 [francois]
Duncan: which way do you embed?
15:50:54 [francois]
Jan: well, the point is not to embed, but do it natively
15:50:55 [francois]
q+
15:51:17 [francois]
... and then it's supported more natively instead of working around it.

15:56:23 [francois]
... could be added as an audio description track. Closed captions for similar purpose.
15:56:32 [francois]
... This data is transported in-band.
15:56:45 [francois]
... It's up to the user-agent to expose this data in different ways to the video tag.
15:57:01 [francois]
... The first three would be application data that comes in-band.
15:57:11 [francois]
... They would be acted on only by script.
15:57:36 [francois]
... The others would be exposed as additional audio/text tracks. They are handled well, I think, described in some details in the HTML5 spec.
15:57:59 [francois]
... The columns list the different media transports we may have to deal with.
15:58:35 [francois]
... There is MPEG TS2, MPEG4 ISOBMFF, the DASH work, or other manifest files.
15:58:55 [francois]
... The question is: how do the user agent recognizes a secondary audio track or a DTV trigger as part of application data?
15:59:32 [francois]
... There are a number of aspects that need to be defined. One is for the various transport formats how the data is carried upon.
16:00:04 [francois]
... Then there's what formats need to be supported, and third issue is how you expose the information in HTML5 to the application.
16:00:21 [francois]
... The HTML5 alludes to that when they talk about in-band tracks.
16:00:35 [francois]
... This work needs to be done.

q?
16:00:59 [francois]

16:02:33 [francois]
q+
16:03:20 [francois]
Bob: I don't have much insight as to how this should be specified in a W3C spec. We would welcome working with W3C in a broader context to work on this.

... Another possibility could be creating a Business group or a community group for the discussion on the mapping.
16:05:26 [francois]
... The venue is important, but the discussion on the possible mapping is much more important.
16:05:44 [francois]
... Do you think it makes sense to continue discussion in the Media Pipeline TF?
16:05:48 [JanL]
JanL has joined #webtv
16:05:50 [francois]
... Other options will take more time.
16:06:17 [francois]
Bob: We can do that. Over the lifetime of this TF, we are going to fill out some of the cells.
16:06:39 [francois]
... As we get more details, I would like to come back to the TF and share more insights as to what needs to be done.
16:06:48 [francois]
Clarke: we'll try to update the table as we move along.

Bob: Yes, we'd looking for broader input than the group of companies that started this effort. To the point of starting working on a standard, we do need the technical work of this table to be reflected in a standard.
16:10:12 [francois]
... There are a variety of places where this could be done.
16:10:58 [francois]
... Both discussions are good to help making this standardized. IETF could be an option as well, for instance.
