Sun Microsystems 2.1 manual B.5 Index File Requirements

The following is an example of a TOC file for a multi-part title:

content

{

title “Perils of Technology”, version “SUNW.00.01”, format “MPEG1SYS”,

description “History of technology, with Luddite slant“, bitstreams

{

description “Normal play bit stream“, speed 1000,

bitrate 1660400, datafile

{

segment 1,

filepath “Part1.mpg”, filesize 284512264

}

{

segment 2,

filepath “Part2.mpg”, filesize 132004840

{

segment 3,

filepath “Part3.mpg”, filesize 260172628

B.5 Index File Requirements

An index file is an ASCII file that specifies the splice points for one bit stream in a content package. (See Section 2.3 “Splice Points” on page 2-3 for encoding requirements for splice points.)There is a single index file for each bit stream in a content package. The Sun MediaCenter server uses the information in the index file to jump from bit stream to bit stream during trick play.
