4 The asdcplib library is a set of objects that offer
5 simplified access to files conforming to the sound and
6 picture track file formats developed by the SMPTE Working
7 Group DC28.20 (now TC 21DC).
9 Recently, support has also been added for SMPTE draft ST
10 2067-5 "IMF Essence Component", AKA "AS-02". This code was
11 donated by Fraunhofer IIS. It carries additional copyright
12 information which should be listed whenever you link the
13 AS-02 elements of the library. Please look at the top of
14 the AS-02 files to see this copyright information.
16 AS-02 support is carried in separate object modules, so
17 unless you #include <AS_02.h> and link libas-02.so you are
18 still using plain old asdcp.
20 This work was originally funded by Digital Cinema Initiatives,
21 LLC (DCI). Subsequent efforts have been funded by Deluxe
22 Laboratories, Doremi Labs, CineCert LLC, Avica Technology
25 **The asdcplib project was originally housed on SourceForge.
26 The project has moved to http://www.cinecert.com/asdcplib/
28 The project formerly depended upon the mxflib project. Because
29 of its focus on covering the whole of the MXF specifications,
30 mxflib is considerably larger and more complex that what I
31 require for this application. For this reason I have created
32 a dedicated MXF implementation that is now part of this
33 library. Special thanks to Matt Beard and Oliver Morgan for
34 their great work and support.
36 Thanks also to the members of the SMPTE DC28.20 packaging
37 ad-hoc group and the members of the MXF Interop Initiative
38 for their encouragement and support. Special thanks to
39 Jim Whittlesey and Howard Lukk at DCI for proposing and
40 supporting this project.
45 This library is intended (but of course not limited) for
46 use by developers of commercial D-Cinema products (and now
47 IMF!). It is designed to be easily integrated into a wide
48 variety of development environments. Commercial users are
49 strongly urged to use static linking (at least where you use
50 this library) to prevent malicious in-field replacement of
51 critical system modules. This recommendation should be
52 considered wherever Open Source or Free software is being
53 used in conjunction with critical security parameters, such
54 as cryptographic keys.
56 The author strives mightily to provide an API that is completely
57 independent of operating system and other library dependencies,
58 and which allows selective replacement of some modules for
59 local needs. Specifically, the essence parsers and OpenSSL
60 crypto functions can be replaced by linking to alternative
61 implementations of the ASDCP:: objects which provide those
64 AS_DCP.h contains the entire AS-DCP API. You do not need to
65 read any of the other files, except maybe asdcp-test.cpp which
66 contains detailed usage examples of each of the API's services.
67 The KM_* files may be of interest for general development
68 support, but may be ignored if all you want is simple AS-DCP
71 Likewise, draft 2067-5 "IMF Essence Component" (AS-02) support
72 is entirely contained in AS-02.h
77 On more-or-less POSIX systems (OS X, Linux, and BSD), GNU make and
78 autotools are required to build asdcplib. The same configure script
79 will also build this package on Windows machines with Cygwin and
80 MinGW installed. For those Windows users who would prefer to build
81 this natively, an "nmake" build file and instructions can be found
82 in the win32 subdirectory.
84 OpenSSL is also required, any recent version should be fine. See
85 http://www.openssl.org/ for more information and download instructions.
87 Optional support for writing Timed Text Track Files is supported by
88 either Xerces-C or Expat. See http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/ or
89 http://expat.sourceforge.net/ for source and build instructions.
91 To configure and build, type './configure' followed by 'make'. There
92 are several test targets on the POSIX side, but you need to assemble
93 a set of test files to use them. AS-02 support can be enabled with
96 I have tested this build on win32, Linux, OpenBSD, and Darwin
97 platforms. Others may work as well.
104 asdcp-test - Writes, reads and verifies AS-DCP (MXF) track files.
106 asdcp-wrap - Writes AS-DCP (MXF) track files.
108 asdcp-unwrap - Extracts essence from AS-DCP (MXF) track files.
110 asdcp-info - Displays information about AS-DCP (MXF) track files.
112 asdcp-util - Calculates digests and generates random numbers and UUIDs.
114 as-02-wrap - Writes AS-02 Essence Component files.
116 as-02-unwrap - Extracts essence from AS-02 Essence Component files.
118 kmfilegen - Writes and verifies large files using a platform-
119 independent format. Use it to test issues related to large files.
121 kmuuidgen, kmrandgen - generate UUID values and random numbers.
123 wavesplit - Splits a WAVE file into two or more output files. Used
124 to untangle incorrectly-paired DCDM sound files.
126 blackwave - Write a WAVE file full of zeros, Used to make filler
127 tracks (though you would be better off modifying asdcp-test if
128 this is a common use case).
130 j2c-test - Displays information about JP2K codestreams.
135 The API documentation is mostly in AS_DCP.h. and AS_02.h Read those
136 files for a detailed description of the library's capabilities. Read
137 asdcp-*.cpp and as-02-*.cpp files for library usage examples. The
138 command-line utilities all respond to -h.
143 2013-xx-xx - enhancements, bug fixes 2.0.x
144 o fixed a bug that caused blackwave to only produce 96kHz WAV files.
145 (thanks to Stephane W)
147 2013-07-02 - IMF/AS-02 support, bug fixes 2.0.0
148 o Massive refactoring of internals to allow easier implementation
149 of AS-02. Some API changes were made as well (note that
150 OPAtomHeader is now OP1aHeader and RIP is no longer part of the
151 OP1aHeader.) If you are using this project as a library (and
152 especially if you are keeping patches against it) PLEASE TAKE
153 TIME TO EVALUATE THIS RELEASE THOUROUGHLY BEFORE ADDING IT TO
155 o Final integration of Fraunhoffer IIS code contribution. AS-02
156 files are now fully supported with some TODOs and one major
157 exception: LEAD indexes are not supported by the MXF writers
158 and interlace images are not yet supported.
159 o Added support for MCA labels (ST 428-12) to asdcp-wrap. Note
160 that this project is still in the early stages of interop testing
161 so errors are likely present and don't expect any server to
162 understand this feature.
164 2013-07-01 - Bug fixes, enhancements 1.12.50
165 o Fixed missing return statement in ArchivableString::ArchiveLength
166 (thanks to both Kristof Provost and Franck Chopin)
167 o Fixed broken sample alignment in RF64Writer (thanks to Dolby)
168 o Fixed win32 build (thanks to Dolby)
171 2013-04-12 - Dolby Atmos support and more audio labels 1.11.49
172 o Significant code contribution from Dolby Laboratories to add
173 support for generic data track files as proposed in ST 21DC
174 and also Dolby Atmos track file support as a specialization.
175 o Added Dolby-contributed code to support generating the external
176 sync signal for d-cinema as proposed in ST 21DC.
177 o Added Dolby-contributed code to support RF64 WAVE files.
178 o Fixed UL error in ST 429-5 DM encoding (contributed by Dolby).
179 o Added ULs for ST 428-12 and Amd. 429-2 2013. Please check!
182 2013-02-20 - bug fixes, enhancements 1.10.48
183 o Refactored internals of the AS-DCP file readers. While no
184 changes in behavior are intended, users are cautioned to test
185 thouroughly before use in production.
186 o Fixed a bug in ReadAncillaryResource that was causing bogus HMAC
187 failures when reading resources from a file.
188 o Fixed premature-release bug in the Expat version of the XML parser.
189 Thanks to Carsten Feldheim (IIS) for the tip.
190 o Fixed -W option in asdcp-unwrap. Thanks to RGB.
191 o Added P-HFR support to asdcp-wrap (see URL for details:
192 http://isdcf.com/papers/ISDCF-HighFrameRate-DCP.pdf).
193 o Added support for SMPTE ST 428-21 "Archival Frame Rates".
194 o Added -P option to asdcp-wrap (inserts arbitrary UL into the
195 PictureEssenceCoding property when wrapping JP2K files.)
196 o Added support for 96 kHz files to blackwave.
197 o Added new path and string manglers to Kumu.
198 o Updated MCA ULs (I warned you...). Again please take some
199 time to proof this work against ST 477-4 including the latest
200 drafts of the registries.
201 Changed the version byte (8 0f 16) to 0x0e:
202 MCALabelSubDescriptor
203 AudioChannelLabelSubDescriptor
204 SoundfieldGroupLabelSubDescriptor
205 GroupOfSoundfieldGroupsLabelSubDescriptor
206 GroupOfSoundfieldGroupsLinkID
207 Changed bytes 8 and and 13 of SoundfieldGroupLinkID
208 Added items to the UL dictionary:
219 2012-08-07 - bug fix, 1.10.46
220 o Added missing zero-initializers to time values when parsing a
221 timestamp string (in the case where the optional [Thh:mm.[:ss]]
222 syntax is not present in an encoded string).
224 2012-03-06 - bug fixes, enhancements 1.9.45
225 o Removed ASDCP::Timestamp, all items that were of that class are now
226 of class Kumu::Timestamp
227 o Refactored Kumu::Timestamp to use KM_tai for internal representation
228 (replaced public Y M D, h, m, s variables)
229 o Refactored Kumu::Timestamp to use KM_tai for WIN32 builds
230 o Added UTC offset awareness to Kumu::Timestamp
231 o Replaced "long GetSecondsSinceEpoch(void) const" with
232 "ui64_t GetCTime() const"
233 o Corrected UL version segment in "7.1 DS" and "WTF" audio format
234 labels (corresponds with publication of ST 429-2:2011).
235 o Exposed MXF object interface (MXF.h, Metadata.h) via ASDCP MXFReader
236 and MXFWriter classes.
237 o Added UL values from ST 377-4:2012. >>>>NOTE: These are preliminary
238 values, subject to change upon final publication of not only ST 377-4
239 but also the relevant registries. This is a good time to compare them
240 to the standard and complain if you think they are wrong!
241 o Added MCALabelSubDescriptor, AudioChannelLabelSubDescriptor,
242 SoundfieldGroupLabelSubDescriptor, and
243 GroupOfSoundfieldGroupsLabelSubDescriptor (from ST 377-4:2012) to
245 o Changed some internals to make MXFWriter::OPAtomHeader() work correctly.
246 o Split asdcp-test into several different programs to help relieve
247 the impenetrable-list-of-arguments problem. asdcp-wrap, asdcp-unwrap
248 and asdcp-info take the place of asdcp-test's -c, -x and -i options,
249 respectively. asdcp-util contains the remaining functions. Note that
250 asdcp-test is now DEPRECATED, new functionality and bug fixes will be
251 aimed at the new tools. Also note that some options and calling
252 conventions are different for the new tools as compared to asdcp-test.
253 Please read the synopses and make sure you understand the new idioms.
254 o asdcp-wrap has a new argument, -C <UL>, that writes the given UL to the
255 ChannelAssignment item in the WaveAudioDescriptor (only useful when
256 writing PCM essence).
259 2011-11-30 - bug fixes v1.8.44
260 o Corrected a wrong decryption UL selection when unwrapping MXF.
263 2011-10-27 - bug fixes v1.8.43
264 o Corrected broken Essence UL matching. (Thanks to Michael Loder).
267 2011-08-31 - bug fixes v1.8.42
268 o Added missing HFR support for PCM essence reader/writer.
271 2011-08-30 - bug fixes, enhancements v1.8.41
272 o UL version byte now ignored when comparing UL values.
273 o Changed the version byte in the TimedTextEssence UL to 0x01. There
274 is no published Essence Keys registry so it can't have a maintained
276 o JP2K Sequence Parser modified to skip directory entries that
277 are not files in the case where the parser is initialized with
278 a directory path. When initialized with a list of file names
279 this check is not performed. Based on a hint by Steve Quartly.
280 o Increased the size of the MPEG header parser buffer.
281 o Added missing FrameType() implementation to ASDCP::MPEG2::MXFReader.
282 o Added missing Close() implementations to MXF reader classes.
283 o Added missing Timestamp::Timestamp(const char* datestr) implementation.
284 (Thanks to Matt Sheby for this and the previous three items.)
285 o Fixed error in Kumu::FortunaRNG::FillRandom() that was returning the
286 end of the random buffer instead of the front (Thanks to Mike Radford).
287 o Added support for proposed sound channel format identifiers
288 '7.1DS' and 'WTF'. Optimistically chose version '0x0c'.
289 o Added support for stereoscopic images in JP2K files at edit
290 rates of 48, 50 and 60 eups (96, 100 and 120 fps).
293 2010.11.15 - bug fixes, enhancements v1.7.40
294 o Fixed bug in long KLV packet support (Thanks to Jim Radford).
295 o Fixed AvgBps in PCM files, *again*. Sorry for the crazy.
296 o More fixes and changes in support of 25, 30, 50, 60 fps.
297 (Thanks to Hans K. for the TC rate bug).
298 o Updated KLVFill UL version element to 0x02.
299 o Type change to support Xerces-C 3.x. (Thanks to Matt Sheby).
300 o Some internal API changes to KLV types. Does not affect
302 o Added NetworkLocator type to MXF metadata types.
303 o Added file offset display to klvwalk.
306 2010.09.09 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.7.39
307 o Fixed bug in JP2K PictureDescriptor initialization in
308 JP2K::MXFReader::OpenRead() and JP2K::MXFSReader::OpenRead()
309 o Once again fiddling with AvgBbs. How can something so simple
310 be such a constant cause of trouble? Tested with 1-, 2- and
311 6-channel input Wav files.
312 o asdcp-test now accepts a directory name when making PCM
313 files (-c). The directory name should be the only filename
314 argument. All files in the directory must be Wav files
315 (mixed channel sizes OK). Files are sorted alphabetically by
316 filename. Hint: use numeric name infix to define order:
325 2010.07.20 - bug fixes, v1.6.37
326 o Fixed TimedTextResourceSubDescriptor UL value.
329 2010.06.16 - bug fixes, v1.6.36
330 o Added support for new Edit Rates to asdcp-test.cpp.
331 o Expanded timed-text file reader in asdcp-test.cpp.
332 o Fixed large BER value encoding (plaintext) and decoding
333 (plaintext and ciphertext). This feature was introduced in
335 o Fixed AvgBps value for multi-channel Wave input.
338 2010.05.13 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.6.34
339 o ST 429-5 files have corrected ULs for DCTimedTextDescriptor and
340 GenericStream DataElement. Files made with previous versions of
341 the library are incompatible with this and future versions.
342 o Fixed File Package TrackNumber values. Th
344 o Added edit rate constants to AS_DCP.h (25, 30, 50, 60).
345 o Changed AudioDescriptor "SampleRate" element name to "EditRate"
346 to make it consistent with the other types.
347 o Now builds with XercesC 3.x.
348 o KM_memio.h has better const behavior.
349 o Fixed a bug in KM_memio.h string archiving.
352 2010.01.05 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.5.32
353 o Re-fixed swapped Interop and SMPTE OP Atom UL values. The swap
354 introduced in v1.5.31 was done in error.
355 o Added -z,-Z options to asdcp-test (j2c parameter checking)
356 o Reformed jp2k-test as j2c-test, added help and list processing,
357 added to standard install target.
360 2009.12.31 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.5.31
361 o Fixed swapped Interop and SMPTE OP Atom UL values.
362 o Added get_BER_length_for_value() subroutine.
363 o Modified ASDCP::h__Writer::WriteEKLVPacket() to allow larger BER
364 lengths for KLV packets larger than 16 MB. This was required to
365 support large font files in the SMPTE 429-5 implementation.
368 2009.11.06 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.5.29
369 o Fixed a bug that could cause HMAC values to be incorrectly
370 stored in MXF files. Files created with versions of asdcplib
371 prior to this version may have incorrect HMAC values.
372 o Improved handing of XML files for MXF wrapping.
373 o Jpeg2000 codestream EditRate and SampleRate mismatches
374 now warns instead of returning an error.
375 o Improved error handling in Jpeg2000 sequence parsing routines.
376 o Added two methods to Kumu::Timestamp, AddSeconds(), to add (or
377 subtract) seconds to a time value, and GetSecondsSinceEpoch()
378 to get the number of seconds since the unix epoch.
379 o Added new option to asdcp-test, '-a', to specify a UUID when
381 o Added support for specifying the intrinsic duration of MXF files
382 containing timed text.
383 o Added new option to wavesplit, '-i', to display WAV file metadata.
386 2009.05.21 - bug fixes, v.1.4.24
387 o Fixed a bug that caused incorrect SubDescriptors UL values to be
388 written into interop format MXF track files. Note that this involved
389 a substantial reorganization of MXF internals. Please test thoroughly
390 in your application before using in production. Note that this is a
391 significant bug fix and track files created with 1.4.22 may be incompatible
395 2009.04.09 - SMPTE format fixes, enhancements and bug fixes, v.1.4.22
396 o asdcplib now uses GNU autotools on POSIX systems to configure
397 and build. See "./configure" for details. Note that two options,
398 --enable-freedist and --with-python are not enabled in the free
399 version of asdcplib and should not be used.
400 o Added build option (CONFIG_RANDOM_UUID) to enable mixed case UUID
401 generation when environment variable KM_USE_RANDOM_UUID is defined.
402 o Fixed a condition that could cause an error to occur when wrapping
403 SMPTE format timed text track files that do not define a starting
405 o Updated ULs for SMPTE format track files.
406 o SampleRate added to JP2K metadata
407 o Support for wrapping 96kHz WAV files added.
408 o Updated ULs for audio channel formats (ChannelFormat)
409 o Updated font subdescriptor MIME Types for TimedText Trackfiles.
410 o Changed time implementation to support dates beyond Jan 19th, 2038.
411 o Xerces-C XML parser support added.
412 o New build method for Windows (see win32/README.txt for details).
413 o Added new functionality in Kumu to recursively create and delete files
414 and directories, and get free disk space for a given volume path.
415 o Added a method to Kumu::Timestamp, AddMinutes(), to add (or subtract)
416 minutes to a time value.
417 o Improved how Kumu::Timestamp parses timestamps with offsets.
418 o Fixed a bug that caused incorrect HMAC values to be calculated.
421 2008.02.16 - SMPTE format fixes, bug fixes v.1.3.18
422 o Added correct SMPTE UL for StereoscopicPictureSubDescriptor.
423 o Exposed JP2K metadata parser as ParseMetadataIntoDesc().
424 o Added simple stereoscopic framebuffer to support paired ReadFrame()
425 and WriteFrame() methods (allows simpler integration with other
427 o Improved detection of JPEG Interop stereoscopic files.
428 o Win32 build fixes (Thanks to Mike Crowe at DTS).
429 o Added the WITH_MD macro to the makefile. Set this value to one
430 to build Win32 with /MD[d] instead of /MT[d].
431 o The Generic Container UL has been added to the EssenceContainers
432 set in the header partition pack for encrypted files. It has always
433 been there in plaintext files.
434 - Below this point the changes are internal and should not affect you
435 unless you use Kumu directly.
436 o Major refactoring of KM_log.[h|cpp].
437 o Fixed buffer re-sizing issue in Kumu::ByteString.
438 o Replaced type IdentifierList with ArchivableList.
439 o Added COPYING file to the release bundle.
442 2007.12.13 - Bug fixes v.1.2.17
443 o Changed Result_t implementation to use int instead of long, which
444 was causing trouble on some 64 bit platforms.
445 o Fixed EKLV HMAC. NOTE: Breaks backward compatibility with older
446 Interop files. To validate these files, use asdcplib-1.1.14. This
447 should not cause too much trouble since files with broken and
448 non-broken HMAC have been in the wild for years without issue.
449 o Fixed HMAC sequence numbering in encrypted stereoscopic files.
450 o Finished stereoscopic test targets in the makefile.
451 o Fixed the win32 build, now expects VS2005 compiler by default,
452 use WITH_VC6=1 top get VC6 flags.
453 o Stereoscopic and Timed Text modes now have SMPTE UL values.
454 NOTE: SMPTE 429-5 and 429-10 are not yet published. It is possible
455 that these UL values may change before publication. Please use
456 caution when using these features for production work.
457 o Changed a bunch of symbol names in the 429-5 implementation to
458 better match the spec.
459 o Added -U option to asdcp-test to dump the UL library to stdout.
460 o Fixed erroneous placement of the PictureEssenceCoding UL in JP2K
461 files (Interop and SMPTE modes).
464 2007.10.22 - Timed Text, Stereoscopic Picture and Bug fixes v.1.2.16
465 o Significant API changes have been made. Please read all entries
466 in this changelog to be sure you understand the changes. Also
467 note that some changes have been made to LS_MXF_SMPTE files that
468 are incompatible with earlier releases (e.g., EKLV HMAC). If
469 you are looking for a stable interop release, use v.1.1.14.
470 o Fixed RFC 2104 HMAC implementation for LS_MXF_SMPTE only. The
471 broken implementation has been maintained for Interop mode.
472 o Added support for draft SMPTE 429-5 Timed Text Track File. This
473 is still waiting for official SMPTE ULs, so do not use it for
474 shipping products. An XML parser is needed to create a Timed
475 Text Track File; Expat is now an optional part of the build.
476 Make with WITH_XML_PARSER=1 to link with Expat. If you do not
477 link with expat, you will get an error when using the TimedText::
478 DCSubtitleParser class. See also S429-5-cgi.cpp for an example
479 that shows how to serve plaintext MXF file elements directly via
481 o Added support for draft SMPTE 429-10 Stereoscopic Picture Track
482 File, including the JPEG Interop version. This is still waiting
483 for official SMPTE ULs, so do not use it with LS_MXF_SMPTE for
485 o Refactored the following files as a side-effect of the above
486 work: AS_DCP_JP2K.cpp AS_DCP_MPEG2.cpp AS_DCP_PCM.cpp
487 AS_DCP_MXF.cpp AS_DCP_internal.h MXF.[h|cpp] MXFTypes.[h|cpp]
488 Metadata.[h|cpp] h__Reader.cpp h__Writer.cpp klvwalk.cpp.
489 WARNING: While significant effort has been extended to make sure
490 that these changes do not affect existing stable file support,
491 users are cautioned to test this release thouroughly.
492 o Added a large set of filesystem path manglers to KM_fileio.h. See
493 path-test.cpp for example usage. The path manglers have not yet
494 been tested on win32 platforms (they are currently used only by
495 the Timed Text module.
496 o The PathIsFile(), PathIsDirectory() and FileSize() subroutines
497 have been modified to accept const std::string& instead of
499 o Added namespace and parsing support (Expat) to Kumu::XMLElement
500 (currently used only for Timed Text support). Also added some
502 o Altered MXF::UTF16String to use mbtowc() and wctomb().
505 2007.03.31 - Bug fixes v.1.1.14
506 o Fixed KeyFrameOffset value in MPEG wrapping to have negative
507 value. This is probably not yet complete for handling all
508 types of GOPs. Please send chunks of MPEG-2 VES that you
509 find which break this. Thanks to Doremi.
510 ** no other file format changes in this release **
511 o Fixed error in RIP interpretation when reading arbitrary (i.e.,
513 o Fixed a memory leak in ASDCP::MXF::OPAtomHeader when used
514 in read mode. Thanks to Mahesh Bajaj for pointing out this
515 bug and the one above.
516 o Removed asserts from KM_fileio, replaced with RESULT_WRITEFAIL
517 return value statements.
518 o Added -s and -p to the makefile install target.
519 o Altered ByteString behavior to use target Length() in copy
520 operations (instead of Capacity()).
521 o Added new Set() method to ByteString.
522 o Fixed a bug in ByteString::Unarchive() that caused the operation
523 to fail when the buffer was smaller than the read (i.e., when
524 Capacity() was called).
525 o Added IdentifierList class to KM_util.h.
526 o Changed some Error() messages to Debug() in Wav.cpp
527 o Revived jp2k-test.cpp and asdcp-mem-test.cpp (they both had
531 2007.02.15 - Bug fixes v1.1.13
532 o Removed 'VDescObj->SampleRate.Numerator = VDesc.FrameRate;'
533 from MPEG2_VDesc_to_MD() in AS_DCP_MPEG2.cpp, was line 76.
534 o Added KM_TEST_NULL_STR_L() and KM_TEST_NULL_L() macros to
535 KM_log.h. These versions log the location of the null value.
536 Macros are now used in any module that includes KM_log.h.
537 o MPEG2 VES with run of zero values at the head is now OK.
538 o Increased VESHeaderBufSize to 16K.
539 o Added makefile support for local OpenSSL in ../openssl, if
541 o The Kumu::PathIs*() functions now return false if a null or
542 empty string is given (used to be an assert).
543 o Cleaned up the install target in the makefile.
544 o Fixed SMPTE 429-6 HMAC -- FIPS 186-2 implementation was
545 laughably incorrect. Thanks to Doremi for pointing this out.
546 o Removed default parameter to HMACContext::InitKey().
547 o Cleaned up messages and CLI arg handling in asdcp-test.
550 2006.11.19 - Mo better stuff v1.1.12
551 o Changed read-only Result_t accessor methods to const.
552 o Added Base64 (-B) option to kmrandgen.
553 o Removed 16-bit alignment restriction from kmrandgen.
554 o Improved WAV file extraction speed (Thanks to Jim Radford
555 for pointing this out).
556 o Added single-channel split for WAV extraction (asdcp-test -1).
557 o Fixed remainder bug in h__RNG::fill_rand().
560 2006.11.03 - Bug fixes v1.1.11
561 o Increased index table entry list size to 5000.
562 o Added length checking to TLV writer (returns error if TLV
563 payload exceeds 64kB).
564 o Fixed partition header and RIP errors related to 2-partition
565 files (MXF Interop mode).
566 o Added -t option to asdcp-test (SHA-1 digest with Base64 output
568 o Fixed Sub Descriptor reference bug (Thanks to Denis Leconte
569 for dogged determination).
570 o Added directory-of-wav detection to RawEssenceType()
571 o Modified MXF::Partition::AddChildObject() to only generate
572 a UUID if the InstanceID is unset.
573 o Added ComponentMaxRef & ComponentMinRef to RGBAEssenceDescriptor.
575 o Added detection of 2K/4K jp2c, writing correct 4K metadata.
578 2006.10.05 - Bug fixes v1.1.10
579 o Changed RM_RELEASE to RL_RELEASE in MXFTypes.h.
580 o Changed the MXF writer to use RL_RELEASE (was RL_DEVELOPMENT).
581 o Really fixed source reference chain.
582 o Updated JP2K file package label.
583 o Changed location of JPEG2000PictureSubDescriptor in the
584 header (was erroneously before Preface).
585 o Altered LS_MXF_INTEROP to produce 2-partition files.
588 2006.09.25 - Bug fixes v1.1.9
589 o Fixed SourcePackageID value. All files will be 'original',
590 i.e. SourcePackageID will be all zeros. Let me know if you
591 want to set SourcePackageID.
592 o Fixed compiler warnings on some Linux platforms
593 o Fixed the build so that BUILD_DIR is no longer created
595 o Added duration detection to the raw essence parsers. The
596 MPEG parser uses a nasty approximation so don't use it
597 without paying close attention to the result.
598 o Modified PCMParserList to make it more useful as a base
600 o Fixed bugs and re-organized command-line help in asdcp-test
602 o Fixed two-partition file reads.
603 o Fixed Win32 PRNG initialization.
604 o Renamed asdcp-lf-test as kmfilegen.
605 o Added kmrandgen and kmuuidgen.
606 o Added string retrieval mechanism to Result_t.
607 o Refactored Kumu::Identifier and its sub-classes.
608 o Altered Kumu::PathIsFile to return true when the path
609 is a symbolic link (unix only).
610 o Altered Kumu::FileWriter::OpenWrite to use file creation
611 mode 0664 (was 0644) (unix only).
612 o Added Kumu::WriteStringIntoFile() subroutine.
615 2006.04.05 - Bug fixes and new stuff v1.1.7
616 o Fixed a bug in the MPEG parser that caused it to fail when
617 handling start codes spanning buffer boundaries
618 o Added wavesplit and blackwave utility programs
619 o Added support for revised SMPTE HMAC key derivation when
621 o Refactored platform compatibility and general utilities
622 into a new sub-library "Kumu". There are no new build
623 steps or dependencies, but some important things have
625 + Result_t is no longer an enum, it is now a class.
626 Library result codes are now declared as const objects
629 const Kumu::Result_t RESULT_FORMAT (-101, "The file...");
631 The macros ASDCP_SUCCESS and ASDCP_FAILURE still work
632 the same way thanks to an operator overload for type long.
633 See KM_error.h for more information.
634 + The logging interface has been moved out of AS_DCP.h
636 o Some of the command line utilities that were using headers
637 other than AS_DCP.h have been changed to use the Kumu
638 equivalents. If you have code based on those utilities, you
639 will have to update by hand.
640 o Added new types to the EssenceType_t enum.
641 o The guard macro for Win32 code has changed from WIN32 to
645 2006.03.2x - new stuff
646 o Proper handling of stream-id byte of essence UL values
647 o writes 3-partition files, reads 2-part or 3-part
650 2006.03.16 - bug fixes plus
651 o Removed SMPTE_LABELS compile-time option. The reader will now
652 silently accept either SMPTE or MXF Interop labels, the writer
653 can be instructed which to use at runtime. Default is Interop.
654 o Added an AIFF reader. Support is preliminary, it works with the
655 AIFF files I have on hand.
656 o More code refactoring. More to come.
659 2006.03.09 - full read-write
660 o Removed ASDCP_WITHOUT_OPENSSL compile-time option.
661 o Full read/write now working on new MXF library
664 2005.00.00 - A New Hope
665 o The temporary mxf-lite has been removed. MXF files are now
666 managed via the objects in KLV.h, MXFTypes.h MXF.h and
667 Metadata.h. This release does not support writing MXF files.
668 o Fixed a header interpretation error in the Wav parser.
671 2005.00.00 - The Reformation
672 o Removed mxflib as a dependency by forking the necessary
673 functions and placing them in the mxf-lite subdirectory.
674 Please note that the very heavy modifications done here
675 render all comparisson to mxflib code a substantial task.
676 All errors are now mine and users are warned not to bug
677 Oliver or Matt for help with this code. The version of
678 mxflib at the time of the fork was: 0.5.1.3.
681 2005.06.03 - bug fixes v0.10.18
682 o Updated UL batch to include GC UL.
685 2005.05.27 - bug fixes v0.10.17
686 o Un-did essence container and compression descriptor changes.
687 The default build reflects MXF Interop decisions as of 26 May.
688 o Added note about build versions to README (see above).
689 o Added warnings to SMPTE_LABELS builds.
690 o Fixed JP2K essence container label.
693 2005.05.02 - bug fixes v0.10.16
694 o Reorganized internal files, added file reader object, added OS
695 portability header, removed and renamed some files. If you have a
696 patch against previous versions of the source, you should check
698 o Added RGBA attributes to JP2K descriptor.
699 o Changed interface to CodestreamParser.
700 o Added JP2K parser implementation. It is parsing each frame but is
701 not yet being used to populate the descriptor.
702 o Added 48fps option for `asdcp-test -p`.
703 o Added picture rate constants to AS_DCP.h (23.976, 24, 48).
704 o Added sample rate constant to AS_DCP.h (48k).
705 o Changed asdcp-test to encrypt picture headers by default
706 (plaintext offset will be 0), added -E option to allow
710 2005.04.28 - bug fixes v0.9.15
711 o The XML descriptors for the crypto DMS have moved in mxflib to
712 the file DMS_Crypto.xml (they were in DMS_DCPENC.xml). Older
713 installations should update the file from mxflib.
714 o Added Close() and Seek() to ~MyFileWriter(), cleaned up headers
715 o Added UUID generator output mode (-u).
716 o Added -S option to extract PCM essence into stereo wav files
717 o Added more UL testing and conformance checking.
718 o Added macro SMPTE_LABELS which causes the library to be built
719 with SMPTE (as opposed to MXF Interop) labels. This is not
720 set by default, and currently only affects the PCM container
721 label and encrypted element label.
722 o Cleaned up the GNUmakefile test targets, the source files
723 are now named with the TEST_FILE_PREFIX macro.
724 o enabled 23.976-framed PCM (2002 samples per frame)
725 o The size of the asdcp-test frame buffer for picture essence
726 may now be set from the command line (-b). The default is 4MB.
727 o h__Reader::ReadEKLVPacket() now tests the UL (duh) and switches
728 on the value, allowing plaintext and ciphertext frames to
729 be mixed in the file.
730 o Fixed error in UUID generator format.
731 o JP2K files now use the GenericPictureDescriptor to store
732 ContainerDuration and SampleRate. SampleRate is mapped
733 to EditRate in the PictureDescriptor struct. This fixes
734 the second caveat from the 0.8.13 release.
735 o Fxed bug in PCMParserList that was miscalculating the extent
736 of a PCM sample. This bug did not affect API users, it was
737 only present in asdcp-test.
738 o Fixed EditRate on PCM files (was showing sample rate)
739 o Fixed Encrypted Essence Container UL
740 o Fixed BlockAlign value for PCM essence
742 - The following changes were provided by Jeff Loewenguth
744 o Moved the DMS CryptographicFramework entry from the material
745 package to the source package
746 o Fixed erroneous Source Essence Container Label value
747 o Fixed broken sort of JP2K frames in JP2K parser
748 o Added FindFrameGOPStart() method to the MPEG2 MXFReader
749 o Added missing length values for EKLV packets without HMAC
750 o -x with JP2K essence writes to files with 6 digit names
752 o The Key ID may now be specified as an argument to asdcp-test
756 2004.12.30 - bug fixes + wav files v0.8.14
757 o Added WAV file write to asdcp-test (uses mxflib::waveheader_t).
758 o Three-partition files reading properly. adscplib still writes
760 o Changes in the mxflib WAV essence parser API had broken
761 asdcplib's ability to read essence from a WAV file. I have
762 fixed this bug, but at the expense of breaking compatibility
763 with older versions of mxflib. Beware!
764 o Removed redundant (but working) bin-text-bin conversions.
767 2004.12.23 - JPEG 2000 support v0.8.13
768 o Reads/writes JPEG 2000 essence in plaintext and ciphertext
769 with the following caveats:
770 - The Picture Essence Descriptor is empty.
771 - Because there is no essence descriptor, the reader code
772 in asdcp-test has no idea how many frames are in the file
773 and ends with an out-of-bounds frame error. This error
774 is being suppressed in asdcp-test for the current release.
775 o Still broken when reading three-partition files.
778 2004.10.22 - fixes and UL updates v0.7.11
779 WARNING: COMPATIBILITY BREAKPOINT
780 Files created with this and future versions of this library are
781 not compatible with previous versions of this library. As you
782 might suspect, files created with previous versions of this
783 library are not compatible with this and future versions.
785 o h__Reader will now open a three-partitition file (untested)
786 o Moved DMS from Material partition to File partition
787 o Added length fields to appropriate places in EKLV packet
790 2004.10.22 - fixes and UL updates v0.7.10
791 o fixed frame buffer handling of externally allocated buffer,
792 created unit test (asdcp-mem-test)
793 o added operator==() and operator!=() to Rational type
794 o fixed some type-related compiler warnings
795 o asdcp-test -p now works on unwrap
796 o updated some ULs to match documentation (thanks to Arun
798 o canonicalized line endings
801 2004.07.02 - full plaintext + ciphertext read/write v0.6.9
802 o HMAC, plaintext offest and raw ciphertext read supported
803 o back to proper CBR index
804 o MPEG temporal offset working
807 2004.07.01 - plaintext + ciphertext read/write v0.5.8
808 o encryption of MPEG and PCM essence supported with the
811 - no plaintext offest support
812 - no raw ciphertext read support
813 o moved to reflecting the whole KLV triplet in the CBR
814 index (now incompatible with mxflib, still searching
815 for info about what's "right")
816 o awaitng the following fixes/features:
817 - retrieve Temporal Offset from index in MPEG2::Reader
818 - test for correct ULs when reading frame triplets
819 - fix header metadata items for encrypted files
821 - plaintext offest support
822 - raw ciphertext read support
825 2004.06.14 - plaintext read/write w/key generator v0.4.5
826 o Project now uses OpenSSL (tested with 0.9.7d on win32, Linux, Darwin)
827 Use `make ASDCP_WITHOUT_OPENSSL=1` to make plaintext-only version
828 o Accepts interior I frames when parsing MPEG2 VES
829 o Improved error reporting on format errors
830 o Added support for encryption to asdcp-test
831 o Added RNG for asdcp-test (non-production use only, see notes in FortunaRNG.h)
832 o Implemented CBC encrypt, decrypt module
833 o Added partial TemporalOffset retrieval from MPEG2 parser
834 o Fixed win32 binmode bug
837 2004.05.12 - plaintext read/write v0.3.4
838 o Full read/write of plaintext MPEG-2 VES and WAV files
839 (does not yet support mux from or demux to 2 channel pairs)
840 o Builds with autoconf-based mxflib
841 o Added ASDCP_ prefix to macros
842 o Updated documentation, fixed documentation errors
843 o Simplified API for MXF writer setup
844 o Decoupled essence parsers from MXF writers
845 o added raw ciphertext support to FrameBuffer
846 o Cleaned up Get/Set naming confusion
847 o Added missing const qualifiers
850 2004.04.27 - preview release v0.2.1
851 o hasty release for quick review
852 o this release may not build with mxflib using autoconf.
853 o writes plaintext AS-DCP MPEG2 essence files
854 o tested under win32 and linux. FreeBSD and Darwin do not work
857 2004.02.04 - First release (v0.1.1):
858 o asdcp-test is mostly complete. It should correctly provide
859 access to the read and info capabilities of the library.
860 o The MPEG2 reader is functional but not fully tested.
861 o Some file format integrity tests remain to be coded.
862 o The PCM reader is mostly complete, I am having difficulty
863 getting a suitable test file from mxfwrap.
864 o The makefile creates a static library module. The API
865 will cleanly support a DSO (or DLL). Let me know if DSO
866 support is important to you.
867 o Nothing is thread safe. Thread safety was not a requirement
868 in the initial project definition. Thread safety may be added
869 above the mxflib/klvlib level. Let me know if it is important
871 o The files xmldict.xml and types.xml must be in the current
872 directory when the program is run. The files are supplied
873 with mxflib. Runtime location of the files is not currently
874 a project goal. Comments on how best to handle this situation
875 would be appreciated. See AS_DCP.cpp at init_mxf_types()
876 for a more detailed discussion.
