7.2.2MPEG-2 Program Stream Packet Encapsulation

The MPEG-2 Program Stream can have any packet size. The server delivers AAL-5 packets with an MPEG data size corresponding to twenty MPEG Transport packets or 3760 bytes for the Program Stream encapsulation. This encapsulation uses a larger ATM packet size than is used for MPEG-2 Transport Streams.

Note –Sun is not committed to the packet encapsulation for the MPEG-2 program stream. We may choose a different encapsulation to, for example, accommodate larger packet sizes, in future releases.

7.2.3MPEG-1 System Stream Packet Encapsulation

The MPEG-1 System Stream can have any packet size. The server delivers AAL-5 packets with an MPEG data size corresponding to twenty MPEG-2 transport packets or 3760 bytes for the Program Stream encapsulation. This encapsulation uses a larger ATM packet size than is used for MPEG-2 Transport Streams.

7.2.4Thomson Electronics Packet Encapsulation

The encapsulation for Thomson Consumer Electronics (TCE) packets is the one required by TCE. This encapsulation consists of multiple 130-byte MPEG packets. These MPEG packets have a special TCE-speciﬁc header.

7.2.5MPEG-2 Encapsulation over Classical IP over AAL5

The server encapsulates MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 packets as speciﬁed in RFC 1577, “Classical IP and ARP over ATM” and RFC 1483, “Multiprotocol Encapsulation over ATM.”

The server creates a UDP packet of a size that accommodates the maximum number of 188-byte MPEG packets that ﬁt into a Media Transmission Unit (MTU). Consult the SunATM documentation for the MTU size for that product.
