An 8-bit number which can have 256 possible values.

The arithmetic is performed with only the eight LSBs. In the optional PB-frames mode, TR only addresses P-pictures; for the temporal reference for B-pictures refer to section 5.1.7.

  • Company: Intel

General description

This codec is based on early drafts of the H.263 standard specification. It supports the following modes: Unrestricted Motion Vector mode, Advanced Prediction mode, PB frames mode, Improved PB frames mode (old version!) and Deblocking Filter mode.

Picture Layer

Data for each picture consists of a picture header followed by data for Group of Blocks, eventually followed by an end-of-sequence code and stuffing bits.

Picture Header

The Picture Header of the I.263 has the following format:

  • Picture Start Code (PSC) (22 bits)'

PSC is a word of 22 bits. Its value is 0000 0000 0000 0000 1 00000. All picture start codes shall be byte aligned.

  • Temporal Reference (TR) (8 bits)'

An 8-bit number which can have 256 possible values. It is formed by incrementing its value in the previously transmitted picture header by one plus the number of non-transmitted pictures (at 29.97 Hz) since the previously transmitted one. The arithmetic is performed with only the eight LSBs. In the optional PB-frames mode, TR only addresses P-pictures; for the temporal reference for B-pictures refer to section 5.1.7.
