media servers. The protocol is used for establishing and controlling media sessions
between end points.
●MPEG: Moving Picture Experts Group is a working group formed from ISO and IEC
developing standards that allow audio/video digital compression and Transmission.
●H.264: Also known as AVC (Advanced Video Coding) or MPEG-4i is a common video
compression standard. H.264 was standardized by the ITU-T Video Coding Experts Group
(VCEG) together with the ISO/IEC JTC1 Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG).
●H.265: Also known as HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding ) H.265 is the successor
to the widely used H.264/AVC digital video coding standard. Developed under the
auspices of ITU, resolutions up to 8192x4320 may be compressed.
●API: An Application Programming Interface (API) provides a predefined function
which allows access capabilities and features or routines via a software or hardware,
without accessing source code or understanding the details of inner working mechanism.
An API call may execute a function and/or provide data feedback/report.
●DMX512: The communication standard developed by USITT for entertainment
and digital lighting systems.The wide adoption of the Digital Multiplex (DMX) protocol has
seen the protocol used for a wide range of other devices including video controllers.
DMX512 is delivered over cable of 2 twisted pairs with 5pin XLR cables for connection.
●ArtNet: An ethernet protocol based on TCP/IP protocol stack, mainly used in
entertainment/events applications. Built on the DMX512 data format, ArtNet enables
multiple "universes" of DMX512 to be transmitted using ethernet networks for
transport.
●MIDI: MIDI is the abbreviation of Musical Instrument Digital Interface. As the name
indicates the protocol was developed for communication between electronical musical
instruments and latterly computers. MIDI instructions are triggers or commands sent over
twisted pair cables, typically using 5pin DIN connectors.
●OSC: The principle of Open Sound Control (OSC) protocol is for networking sound
synthesizers, computers, and multimedia devices for musical performance or show control.
As with XML and JSON, the OSC protocol allows sharing data. OSC is transported via UDP
packets between devices connected on an Ethernet.
