  6. Main Tested Components • Voice, audio and video CODECs • GSM/AMR (NB & WB) • AAC • H.263 • MPEG-4 Visual • Content negotiation & Transportprotocols • RTSP/SDP • RTP/RTCP • HTTP – for download and progressive download • 3GPP - File Format IMTC Forum – May 2004 – San Jose, California

  7. Test Procedure • The tests are being done according to a test procedure that is developed and constantly improved by the group members (currently at version 0.5) • It was tailored to meet the needs of the vendors and the reference specification • The test is composed of 5 stages that can be divided into 3 main groups: • Offline test • Raw bitstream • FF • Virtual online test • Content negotiation / Transport protocols • Full system, Face-to-Face • Errorless / Simulated error condition / Wireless IMTC Forum – May 2004 – San Jose, California

  8. Current Status • 15 vendors took part in the previous testing cycle. • The group is currently in the middle of the 4th test cycle having 24 participants companies • 94% of bitstream file exchange are already completed with success. • 93% of file format tests are already completed with success. • F2F meeting is planned to be in September as part of SuperOP.
