SMPTE 386M-2004

This standard defines the mapping of compressed picture data according to the type D-10 data stream and up to 8 channels of AES3 data into the material exchange format generic container (MXF-GC). This mapping is given the acronym: MXF-GC(D-10). The MXF specification is written in several parts. This is one of a set of documents that define the contents of the MXF file body. The MXF file format specification includes operation pattern specifications that may define restrictions to be placed on the way in which this essence container type can be implemented. The reader is advised to carefully study the appropriate operational pattern document for compliance to the defined implementation.
