AMWA BCP-005-03: NMOS Support for IPMX/PEP

Lint Status Zensical Render Status Legacy Render Status

This repository holds the source for this Specification, part of the family of Networked Media Open Specifications from the Advanced Media Workflow Association

What does it do?

  • Establishes a standardized mechanism for NMOS Senders and Receivers to declare support for Privacy-encrypted streaming using IPMX/PEP (VSF TR-10-13).

Why does it matter?

  • An NMOS Controller can verify that any Receiver is compliant with a Sender producing Privacy-encrypted streams, as only IPMX/PEP-compliant Receivers can process such content.
  • A standardized framework enables Controllers to systematically verify and/or enforce compliance.

How does it work?

  • Documents how IPMX/PEP capabilities are announced by both Senders and Receivers.
  • Outlines the requirements for Senders, Receivers, and Controllers regarding the IPMX/PEP feature.
