2. Overview of SMPTE 292M
A SMPTE 292M television line comprises two interleaved streams, one A SMPTE 292M television line comprises two interleaved streams, one
containing the luminance (Y) samples, the other chrominance (CrCb) containing the luminance (Y) samples, the other chrominance (CrCb)
values. Since chrominance is horizontally sub-sampled (4:2:2 coding) the values. Since chrominance is horizontally sub-sampled (4:2:2 coding) the
lengths of the two streams match. Each stream is divided into four lengths of the two streams match (see Figure 3 of SMPTE 292M[1]). In
parts, (figure 1): (1) start of active video timing reference (SAV); (2) addition to being the same length the streams also have identical
digital active line; (3) end of active video timing reference (EAV); and structures: each stream is divided into four parts, (figure 1): (1)
(4) digital line blanking. A SMPTE 292M line may also carry horizontal start of active video timing reference (SAV); (2) digital active line;
ancillary data (H-ANC) or vertical ancillary data (V-ANC) instead of the (3) end of active video timing reference (EAV); and (4) digital line
blanking level, and likewise, ancillary data may transported instead of blanking. A SMPTE 292M line may also carry horizontal ancillary data

digital active line.

the same assumptions, the standard 16 bit RTP sequence number wraps
around in less than a second (336 milliseconds) which is clearly not
sufficient for the purpose of detecting loss and out of order packets.
A 148.5 MHz (or 148.5/1.001 MHz) time-stamp is used as the RTP
timestamp. This allows the receiver to reconstruct the timing of the
SMPTE 292M stream, without knowledge of the exact type of source format
(e.g. SMPTE 274M or SMPTE 296M). With this timestamp, the location of
the first byte of each packet can be uniquely identified in the SMPTE
292M stream. At 148.5 MHz the 32 bit timestamp wraps around in 21
seconds.
The payload header also carries the 11 bit line number from the SMPTE The payload header also carries the 11 bit line number from the SMPTE
