MPEG2/4 HD-SDI to QAM and IP Encoder User Manual
Switching slices, called SP and SI slices, allowing an encoder to direct a decoder to jump into an ongoing
video stream for such purposes as video streaming bit rate switching and "trick mode" operation. When a
decoder jumps into the middle of a video stream using the SP/SI feature, it can get an exact match to the
decoded pictures at that location in the video stream despite using different pictures, or no pictures at all, as
references prior to the switch.
General notes about Streams:
Multicast Address Ranges:
We recommend, that the addressing of your Multicast streams should be in conjunction with this listings to avoid
conflicts with other network equipment or protocols.

Note
Host Extensions for IP Multicasting [
] specifies the extensions required of a host
implementation of the Internet Protocol (IP) to support multicasting. The multicast addresses are in
the range 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255. Address assignments are listed below.
The range of addresses between 224.0.0.0 and 224.0.0.255, inclusive, is reserved for the use of
routing protocols and other low-level topology discovery or maintenance protocols, such as gateway
discovery and group membership reporting. Multicast routers should not forward any multicast
datagram with destination addresses in this range, regardless of its TTL.
