Abstract / scope
This document[1] specifies a set of tests and procedures designed to verify whether bitstreams and decoders meet normative requirements specified in ISO/IEC 23094-2.
An encoder can claim conformance to ISO/IEC 23094-2 if the bitstreams that it generates are conforming bitstreams. Characteristics of coded bitstreams and decoders are defined in ISO/IEC 23094-2. Decoder characteristics define the properties and capabilities of the applied decoding process. The capabilities of a decoder specify which bitstreams the decoder can decode and reconstruct. A bitstream can be decoded by a decoder if the characteristics of the bitstream are within the specified decoder capabilities.
