SMPTE RP 2047-5:2017

This recommended practice defines constraints on the VC-2 video compression specification such that 10-bit ultra-high definition video signals can be compressed to only occupy the bit rate of 8-bit high definition signals. Specifically, it defines constraints for compressing progressive source video having 3840 pixels/line by 2160 lines/frame at 50 or 60/1.001 frames/s using 4:2:2 sampling.

This document defines a VC-2 bit-stream for video compressed according to this practice. It also defines an application specific level for VC-2 compression.
