scope:

This document extends the VC-5 standard to specify a method for representing metadata in VC-5 essence as the payload of VC-5 chunk elements. Metadata as defined in this standard can include intrinsic metadata that is specific to the VC-5 standard, extrinsic metadata that is defined in other standards, and dark metadata in a non-standard format. This standard defines a method for representing time series data in a VC-5 bitstream.

Intrinsic metadata defined in this standard includes parameters that describe the image represented by VC-5 essence, including the pixel format, color space, and co-siting of subsampled color difference components.

This document specifies how to represent, in the VC-5 bitstream, extrinsic metadata in the following formats: XMP, DPX, SMPTE ST 377-1 MXF Annex F and G essence descriptors, ACES attributes, ALE, and dynamic metadata color volume transforms.
