4 The asdcplib library is a set of objects that offer
5 simplified access to files conforming to the sound and
6 picture track file formats developed by the SMPTE Working
9 This work was originally funded by Digital Cinema
10 Initiatives, LLC (DCI). Subsequent efforts have been funded
11 by Deluxe Laboratories, Doremi Labs, CineCert LLC, Avica
12 Technology and others.
14 **The asdcplib project was originally housed on SourceForge.
15 The project has moved to http://www.cinecert.com/asdcplib/
17 The project formerly depended upon the mxflib project. Because
18 of its focus on covering the whole of the MXF specifications,
19 mxflib is considerably larger and more complex that what I
20 require for this application. For this reason I have created
21 a dedicated MXF implementation that is now part of this
22 library. Special thanks to Matt Beard and Oliver Morgan for
23 their great work and support.
25 Thanks also to the members of the SMPTE DC28.20 packaging
26 ad-hoc group and the members of the MXF Interop Initiative
27 for their encouragement and support. Special thanks to
28 Jim Whittlesey and Howard Lukk at DCI for proposing and
29 supporting this project.
34 This library is intended (but of course not limited) for
35 use by developers of commercial D-Cinema products. It is
36 designed to be easily integrated into a wide variety of
37 development environments. Commercial users are strongly
38 urged to use static linking (at least where you use this
39 library) to prevent malicious in-field replacement of
40 critical system modules. This recommendation should be
41 considered wherever Open Source or Free software is being
42 used in conjunction with critical security parameters, such
43 as cryptographic keys.
45 The author strives mightily to provide an API that is completely
46 independent of operating system and other library dependencies,
47 and which allows selective replacement of some modules for
48 local needs. Specifically, the essence parsers and OpenSSL
49 crypto functions can be replaced by linking to alternative
50 implementations of the ASDCP:: objects which provide those
53 AS_DCP.h contains the entire API. You do not need to read
54 any of the other files, except maybe asdcp-test.cpp which
55 contains detailed usage examples of each of the API's
56 services. The KM_* files may be of interest for general
57 development support, but may be ignored if all you want
58 is simple AS-DCP support.
63 On more-or-less POSIX systems (OS X, Linux, and BSD), GNU make is
64 required to build asdcplib. The same configure script will also
65 build this package on Windows machines with Cygwin and
66 MinGW installed. For those Windows users who would prefer to build
67 this natively, an "nmake" build file and instructions can be found
68 in the win32 subdirectory.
70 OpenSSL is also required, version 0.9.8k is recommended. See
71 http://www.openssl.org/ for more information and download
74 Optional support for writing Timed Text Track Files is supported by
75 either Xerces-C or Expat. See http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/ or
76 http://expat.sourceforge.net/ for source and build instructions.
78 To configure and build, type './configure' followed by 'make'. There
79 are several test targets on the POSIX side, but you need to assemble
80 a set of test files to use them.
82 I have tested this build on win32, Linux, OpenBSD, and Darwin
83 platforms. Others may work as well.
90 asdcp-test - Writes, reads and verifies AS-DCP (MXF) track files.
92 kmfilegen - Writes and verifies large files using a platform-
93 independent format. Use it to test issues related to large files.
95 kmuuidgen, kmrandgen - generate UUID values and random numbers.
97 wavesplit - Splits a WAVE file into two or more output files. Used
98 to untangle incorrectly-paired DCDM sound files.
100 blackwave - Write a WAVE file full of zeros, Used to make filler
101 tracks (though you would be better off modifying asdcp-test if
102 this is a common use case).
107 The API documentation is mostly in AS_DCP.h. Read that file for
108 a detailed description of the library's capabilities. Read
109 asdcp-test.cpp for library usage examples. The command-line
110 utilities all respond to -h.
115 2010.11.15 - bug fixes, enhancements x1.7.40
116 o Fixed bug in long KLV packet support (Thanks to Jim R.).
117 o Fixed AvgBps in PCM files, *again*. Sorry for the crazy.
118 o More fixes and changes in support of 25, 30, 50, 60 fps.
119 (Thanks to Hans K. for the TC rate bug).
120 o Updated KLVFill UL version element to 0x02.
121 o Type change to support Xerces-C 3.x. (Thanks to Matt S.).
122 o Some internal API changes to KLV types. Does not affect
124 o Added NetworkLocator type to MXF metadata types.
125 o Added file offset display to klvwalk.
128 2010.09.09 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.7.39
129 o Fixed bug in JP2K PictureDescriptor initialization in
130 JP2K::MXFReader::OpenRead() and JP2K::MXFSReader::OpenRead()
131 o Once again fiddling with AvgBbs. How can something so simple
132 be such a constant cause of trouble? Tested with 1-, 2- and
133 6-channel input Wav files.
134 o asdcp-test now accepts a directory name when making PCM
135 files (-c). The directory name should be the only filename
136 argument. All files in the directory must be Wav files
137 (mixed channel sizes OK). Files are sorted alphabetically by
138 filename. Hint: use numeric name infix to define order:
147 2010.07.20 - bug fixes, v1.6.37
148 o Fixed TimedTextResourceSubDescriptor UL value.
151 2010.06.16 - bug fixes, v1.6.36
152 o Added support for new Edit Rates to asdcp-test.cpp.
153 o Expanded timed-text file reader in asdcp-test.cpp.
154 o Fixed large BER value encoding (plaintext) and decoding
155 (plaintext and ciphertext). This feature was introduced in
157 o Fixed AvgBps value for multi-channel Wave input.
160 2010.05.13 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.6.34
161 o ST 429-5 files have corrected ULs for DCTimedTextDescriptor and
162 GenericStream DataElement. Files made with previous versions of
163 the library are incompatible with this and future versions.
164 o Fixed File Package TrackNumber values. Thanks to Sankar.
165 o Added edit rate constants to AS_DCP.h (25, 30, 50, 60).
166 o Changed AudioDescriptor "SampelRate" element name to "EditRate"
167 to make it consistent with the other types.
168 o Now builds with XercesC 3.x.
169 o KM_memio.h has better const behavior.
170 o Fixed a bug in KM_memio.h string archiving.
173 2010.01.05 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.5.32
174 o Re-fixed swapped Interop and SMPTE OP Atom UL values. The swap
175 introduced in v1.5.31 was done in error.
176 o Added -z,-Z options to asdcp-test (j2c parameter checking)
177 o Reformed jp2k-test as j2c-test, added help and list processing,
178 added to standard install target.
181 2009.12.31 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.5.31
182 o Fixed swapped Interop and SMPTE OP Atom UL values.
183 o Added get_BER_length_for_value() subroutine.
184 o Modified ASDCP::h__Writer::WriteEKLVPacket() to allow larger BER
185 lengths for KLV packets larger than 16 MB. This was required to
186 support large font files in the SMPTE 429-5 implementation.
189 2009.11.06 - bug fixes, enhancements, v1.5.29
190 o Fixed a bug that could cause HMAC values to be incorrectly
191 stored in MXF files. Files created with versions of asdcplib
192 prior to this version may have incorrect HMAC values.
193 o Improved handing of XML files for MXF wrapping.
194 o Jpeg2000 codestream EditRate and SampleRate mismatches
195 now warns instead of returning an error.
196 o Improved error handling in Jpeg2000 sequence parsing routines.
197 o Added two methods to Kumu::Timestamp, AddSeconds(), to add (or
198 subtract) seconds to a time value, and GetSecondsSinceEpoch()
199 to get the number of seconds since the unix epoch.
200 o Added new option to asdcp-test, '-a', to specify a UUID when
202 o Added support for specifying the intrinsic duration of MXF files
203 containing timed text.
204 o Added new option to wavesplit, '-i', to display WAV file metadata.
207 2009.05.21 - bug fixes, v.1.4.24
208 o Fixed a bug that caused incorrect SubDescriptors UL values to be
209 written into interop format MXF track files. Note that this involved
210 a substantial reorganization of MXF internals. Please test thoroughly
211 in your application before using in production. Note that this is a
212 significant bug fix and track files created with 1.4.22 may be incompatible
216 2009.04.09 - SMPTE format fixes, enhancements and bug fixes, v.1.4.22
217 o asdcplib now uses GNU autotools on POSIX systems to configure
218 and build. See "./configure" for details. Note that two options,
219 --enable-freedist and --with-python are not enabled in the free
220 version of asdcplib and should not be used.
221 o Added build option (CONFIG_RANDOM_UUID) to enable mixed case UUID
222 generation when environment variable KM_USE_RANDOM_UUID is defined.
223 o Fixed a condition that could cause an error to occur when wrapping
224 SMPTE format timed text track files that do not define a starting
226 o Updated ULs for SMPTE format track files.
227 o SampleRate added to JP2K metadata
228 o Support for wrapping 96kHz WAV files added.
229 o Updated ULs for audio channel formats (ChannelFormat)
230 o Updated font subdescriptor MIME Types for TimedText Trackfiles.
231 o Changed time implementation to support dates beyond Jan 19th, 2038.
232 o Xerces-C XML parser support added.
233 o New build method for Windows (see win32/README.txt for details).
234 o Added new functionality in Kumu to recursively create and delete files
235 and directories, and get free disk space for a given volume path.
236 o Added a method to Kumu::Timestamp, AddMinutes(), to add (or subtract)
237 minutes to a time value.
238 o Improved how Kumu::Timestamp parses timestamps with offsets.
239 o Fixed a bug that caused incorrect HMAC values to be calculated.
242 2008.02.16 - SMPTE format fixes, bug fixes v.1.3.18
243 o Added correct SMPTE UL for StereoscopicPictureSubDescriptor.
244 o Exposed JP2K metadata parser as ParseMetadataIntoDesc().
245 o Added simple stereoscopic framebuffer to support paired ReadFrame()
246 and WriteFrame() methods (allows simpler integration with other
248 o Improved detection of JPEG Interop stereoscopic files.
249 o Win32 build fixes (Thanks to Mike Crowe at DTS).
250 o Added the WITH_MD macro to the makefile. Set this value to one
251 to build Win32 with /MD[d] instead of /MT[d].
252 o The Generic Container UL has been added to the EssenceContainers
253 set in the header partition pack for encrypted files. It has always
254 been there in plaintext files.
255 - Below this point the changes are internal and should not affect you
256 unless you use Kumu directly.
257 o Major refactoring of KM_log.[h|cpp].
258 o Fixed buffer re-sizing issue in Kumu::ByteString.
259 o Replaced type IdentifierList with ArchivableList.
260 o Added COPYING file to the release bundle.
263 2007.12.13 - Bug fixes v.1.2.17
264 o Changed Result_t implementation to use int instead of long, which
265 was causing trouble on some 64 bit platforms.
266 o Fixed EKLV HMAC. NOTE: Breaks backward compatibility with older
267 Interop files. To validate these files, use asdcplib-1.1.14. This
268 should not cause too much trouble since files with broken and
269 non-broken HMAC have been in the wild for years without issue.
270 o Fixed HMAC sequence numbering in encrypted stereoscopic files.
271 o Finished stereoscopic test targets in the makefile.
272 o Fixed the win32 build, now expects VS2005 compiler by default,
273 use WITH_VC6=1 top get VC6 flags.
274 o Stereoscopic and Timed Text modes now have SMPTE UL values.
275 NOTE: SMPTE 429-5 and 429-10 are not yet published. It is possible
276 that these UL values may change before publication. Please use
277 caution when using these features for production work.
278 o Changed a bunch of symbol names in the 429-5 implementation to
279 better match the spec.
280 o Added -U option to asdcp-test to dump the UL library to stdout.
281 o Fixed erroneous placement of the PictureEssenceCoding UL in JP2K
282 files (Interop and SMPTE modes).
285 2007.10.22 - Timed Text, Stereoscopic Picture and Bug fixes v.1.2.16
286 o Significant API changes have been made. Please read all entries
287 in this changelog to be sure you understand the changes. Also
288 note that some changes have been made to LS_MXF_SMPTE files that
289 are incompatible with earlier releases (e.g., EKLV HMAC). If
290 you are looking for a stable interop release, use v.1.1.14.
291 o Fixed RFC 2104 HMAC implementation for LS_MXF_SMPTE only. The
292 broken implementation has been maintained for Interop mode.
293 o Added support for draft SMPTE 429-5 Timed Text Track File. This
294 is still waiting for official SMPTE ULs, so do not use it for
295 shipping products. An XML parser is needed to create a Timed
296 Text Track File; Expat is now an optional part of the build.
297 Make with WITH_XML_PARSER=1 to link with Expat. If you do not
298 link with expat, you will get an error when using the TimedText::
299 DCSubtitleParser class. See also S429-5-cgi.cpp for an example
300 that shows how to serve plaintext MXF file elements directly via
302 o Added support for draft SMPTE 429-10 Stereoscopic Picture Track
303 File, including the JPEG Interop version. This is still waiting
304 for official SMPTE ULs, so do not use it with LS_MXF_SMPTE for
306 o Refactored the following files as a side-effect of the above
307 work: AS_DCP_JP2K.cpp AS_DCP_MPEG2.cpp AS_DCP_PCM.cpp
308 AS_DCP_MXF.cpp AS_DCP_internal.h MXF.[h|cpp] MXFTypes.[h|cpp]
309 Metadata.[h|cpp] h__Reader.cpp h__Writer.cpp klvwalk.cpp.
310 WARNING: While significant effort has been extended to make sure
311 that these changes do not affect existing stable file support,
312 users are cautioned to test this release thouroughly.
313 o Added a large set of filesystem path manglers to KM_fileio.h. See
314 path-test.cpp for example usage. The path manglers have not yet
315 been tested on win32 platforms (they are currently used only by
316 the Timed Text module.
317 o The PathIsFile(), PathIsDirectory() and FileSize() subroutines
318 have been modified to accept const std::string& instead of
320 o Added namespace and parsing support (Expat) to Kumu::XMLElement
321 (currently used only for Timed Text support). Also added some
323 o Altered MXF::UTF16String to use mbtowc() and wctomb().
326 2007.03.31 - Bug fixes v.1.1.14
327 o Fixed KeyFrameOffset value in MPEG wrapping to have negative
328 value. This is probably not yet complete for handling all
329 types of GOPs. Please send chunks of MPEG-2 VES that you
330 find which break this. Thanks to Doremi.
331 ** no other file format changes in this release **
332 o Fixed error in RIP interpretation when reading arbitrary (i.e.,
334 o Fixed a memory leak in ASDCP::MXF::OPAtomHeader when used
335 in read mode. Thanks to Mahesh Bajaj for pointing out this
336 bug and the one above.
337 o Removed asserts from KM_fileio, replaced with RESULT_WRITEFAIL
338 return value statements.
339 o Added -s and -p to the makefile install target.
340 o Altered ByteString behavior to use target Length() in copy
341 operations (instead of Capacity()).
342 o Added new Set() method to ByteString.
343 o Fixed a bug in ByteString::Unarchive() that caused the operation
344 to fail when the buffer was smaller than the read (i.e., when
345 Capacity() was called).
346 o Added IdentifierList class to KM_util.h.
347 o Changed some Error() messages to Debug() in Wav.cpp
348 o Revived jp2k-test.cpp and asdcp-mem-test.cpp (they both had
352 2007.02.15 - Bug fixes v1.1.13
353 o Removed 'VDescObj->SampleRate.Numerator = VDesc.FrameRate;'
354 from MPEG2_VDesc_to_MD() in AS_DCP_MPEG2.cpp, was line 76.
355 o Added KM_TEST_NULL_STR_L() and KM_TEST_NULL_L() macros to
356 KM_log.h. These versions log the location of the null value.
357 Macros are now used in any module that includes KM_log.h.
358 o MPEG2 VES with run of zero values at the head is now OK.
359 o Increased VESHeaderBufSize to 16K.
360 o Added makefile support for local OpenSSL in ../openssl, if
362 o The Kumu::PathIs*() functions now return false if a null or
363 empty string is given (used to be an assert).
364 o Cleaned up the install target in the makefile.
365 o Fixed SMPTE 429-6 HMAC -- FIPS 186-2 implementation was
366 laughably incorrect. Thanks to Doremi for pointing this out.
367 o Removed default parameter to HMACContext::InitKey().
368 o Cleaned up messages and CLI arg handling in asdcp-test.
371 2006.11.19 - Mo better stuff v1.1.12
372 o Changed read-only Result_t accessor methods to const.
373 o Added Base64 (-B) option to kmrandgen.
374 o Removed 16-bit alignment restriction from kmrandgen.
375 o Improved WAV file extraction speed (Thanks to Jim Radford
376 for pointing this out).
377 o Added single-channel split for WAV extraction (asdcp-test -1).
378 o Fixed remainder bug in h__RNG::fill_rand().
381 2006.11.03 - Bug fixes v1.1.11
382 o Increased index table entry list size to 5000.
383 o Added length checking to TLV writer (returns error if TLV
384 payload exceeds 64kB).
385 o Fixed partition header and RIP errors related to 2-partition
386 files (MXF Interop mode).
387 o Added -t option to asdcp-test (SHA-1 digest with Base64 output
389 o Fixed Sub Descriptor reference bug (Thanks to Denis Leconte
390 for dogged determination).
391 o Added directory-of-wav detection to RawEssenceType()
392 o Modified MXF::Partition::AddChildObject() to only generate
393 a UUID if the InstanceID is unset.
394 o Added ComponentMaxRef & ComponentMinRef to RGBAEssenceDescriptor.
396 o Added detection of 2K/4K jp2c, writing correct 4K metadata.
399 2006.10.05 - Bug fixes v1.1.10
400 o Changed RM_RELEASE to RL_RELEASE in MXFTypes.h.
401 o Changed the MXF writer to use RL_RELEASE (was RL_DEVELOPMENT).
402 o Really fixed source reference chain.
403 o Updated JP2K file package label.
404 o Changed location of JPEG2000PictureSubDescriptor in the
405 header (was erroneously before Preface).
406 o Altered LS_MXF_INTEROP to produce 2-partition files.
409 2006.09.25 - Bug fixes v1.1.9
410 o Fixed SourcePackageID value. All files will be 'original',
411 i.e. SourcePackageID will be all zeros. Let me know if you
412 want to set SourcePackageID.
413 o Fixed compiler warnings on some Linux platforms
414 o Fixed the build so that BUILD_DIR is no longer created
416 o Added duration detection to the raw essence parsers. The
417 MPEG parser uses a nasty approximation so don't use it
418 without paying close attention to the result.
419 o Modified PCMParserList to make it more useful as a base
421 o Fixed bugs and re-organized command-line help in asdcp-test
423 o Fixed two-partition file reads.
424 o Fixed Win32 PRNG initialization.
425 o Renamed asdcp-lf-test as kmfilegen.
426 o Added kmrandgen and kmuuidgen.
427 o Added string retrieval mechanism to Result_t.
428 o Refactored Kumu::Identifier and its sub-classes.
429 o Altered Kumu::PathIsFile to return true when the path
430 is a symbolic link (unix only).
431 o Altered Kumu::FileWriter::OpenWrite to use file creation
432 mode 0664 (was 0644) (unix only).
433 o Added Kumu::WriteStringIntoFile() subroutine.
436 2006.04.05 - Bug fixes and new stuff v1.1.7
437 o Fixed a bug in the MPEG parser that caused it to fail when
438 handling start codes spanning buffer boundaries
439 o Added wavesplit and blackwave utility programs
440 o Added support for revised SMPTE HMAC key derivation when
442 o Refactored platform compatibility and general utilities
443 into a new sub-library "Kumu". There are no new build
444 steps or dependencies, but some important things have
446 + Result_t is no longer an enum, it is now a class.
447 Library result codes are now declared as const objects
450 const Kumu::Result_t RESULT_FORMAT (-101, "The file...");
452 The macros ASDCP_SUCCESS and ASDCP_FAILURE still work
453 the same way thanks to an operator overload for type long.
454 See KM_error.h for more information.
455 + The logging interface has been moved out of AS_DCP.h
457 o Some of the command line utilities that were using headers
458 other than AS_DCP.h have been changed to use the Kumu
459 equivalents. If you have code based on those utilities, you
460 will have to update by hand.
461 o Added new types to the EssenceType_t enum.
462 o The guard macro for Win32 code has changed from WIN32 to
466 2006.03.2x - new stuff
467 o Proper handling of stream-id byte of essence UL values
468 o writes 3-partition files, reads 2-part or 3-part
471 2006.03.16 - bug fixes plus
472 o Removed SMPTE_LABELS compile-time option. The reader will now
473 silently accept either SMPTE or MXF Interop labels, the writer
474 can be instructed which to use at runtime. Default is Interop.
475 o Added an AIFF reader. Support is preliminary, it works with the
476 AIFF files I have on hand.
477 o More code refactoring. More to come.
480 2006.03.09 - full read-write
481 o Removed ASDCP_WITHOUT_OPENSSL compile-time option.
482 o Full read/write now working on new MXF library
485 2005.00.00 - A New Hope
486 o The temporary mxf-lite has been removed. MXF files are now
487 managed via the objects in KLV.h, MXFTypes.h MXF.h and
488 Metadata.h. This release does not support writing MXF files.
489 o Fixed a header interpretation error in the Wav parser.
492 2005.00.00 - The Reformation
493 o Removed mxflib as a dependency by forking the necessary
494 functions and placing them in the mxf-lite subdirectory.
495 Please note that the very heavy modifications done here
496 render all comparisson to mxflib code a substantial task.
497 All errors are now mine and users are warned not to bug
498 Oliver or Matt for help with this code. The version of
499 mxflib at the time of the fork was: 0.5.1.3.
502 2005.06.03 - bug fixes v0.10.18
503 o Updated UL batch to include GC UL.
506 2005.05.27 - bug fixes v0.10.17
507 o Un-did essence container and compression descriptor changes.
508 The default build reflects MXF Interop decisions as of 26 May.
509 o Added note about build versions to README (see above).
510 o Added warnings to SMPTE_LABELS builds.
511 o Fixed JP2K essence container label.
514 2005.05.02 - bug fixes v0.10.16
515 o Reorganized internal files, added file reader object, added OS
516 portability header, removed and renamed some files. If you have a
517 patch against previous versions of the source, you should check
519 o Added RGBA attributes to JP2K descriptor.
520 o Changed interface to CodestreamParser.
521 o Added JP2K parser implementation. It is parsing each frame but is
522 not yet being used to populate the descriptor.
523 o Added 48fps option for `asdcp-test -p`.
524 o Added picture rate constants to AS_DCP.h (23.976, 24, 48).
525 o Added sample rate constant to AS_DCP.h (48k).
526 o Changed asdcp-test to encrypt picture headers by default
527 (plaintext offset will be 0), added -E option to allow
531 2005.04.28 - bug fixes v0.9.15
532 o The XML descriptors for the crypto DMS have moved in mxflib to
533 the file DMS_Crypto.xml (they were in DMS_DCPENC.xml). Older
534 installations should update the file from mxflib.
535 o Added Close() and Seek() to ~MyFileWriter(), cleaned up headers
536 o Added UUID generator output mode (-u).
537 o Added -S option to extract PCM essence into stereo wav files
538 o Added more UL testing and conformance checking.
539 o Added macro SMPTE_LABELS which causes the library to be built
540 with SMPTE (as opposed to MXF Interop) labels. This is not
541 set by default, and currently only affects the PCM container
542 label and encrypted element label.
543 o Cleaned up the GNUmakefile test targets, the source files
544 are now named with the TEST_FILE_PREFIX macro.
545 o enabled 23.976-framed PCM (2002 samples per frame)
546 o The size of the asdcp-test frame buffer for picture essence
547 may now be set from the command line (-b). The default is 4MB.
548 o h__Reader::ReadEKLVPacket() now tests the UL (duh) and switches
549 on the value, allowing plaintext and ciphertext frames to
550 be mixed in the file.
551 o Fixed error in UUID generator format.
552 o JP2K files now use the GenericPictureDescriptor to store
553 ContainerDuration and SampleRate. SampleRate is mapped
554 to EditRate in the PictureDescriptor struct. This fixes
555 the second caveat from the 0.8.13 release.
556 o Fxed bug in PCMParserList that was miscalculating the extent
557 of a PCM sample. This bug did not affect API users, it was
558 only present in asdcp-test.
559 o Fixed EditRate on PCM files (was showing sample rate)
560 o Fixed Encrypted Essence Container UL
561 o Fixed BlockAlign value for PCM essence
563 - The following changes were provided by Jeff Loewenguth
565 o Moved the DMS CryptographicFramework entry from the material
566 package to the source package
567 o Fixed erroneous Source Essence Container Label value
568 o Fixed broken sort of JP2K frames in JP2K parser
569 o Added FindFrameGOPStart() method to the MPEG2 MXFReader
570 o Added missing length values for EKLV packets without HMAC
571 o -x with JP2K essence writes to files with 6 digit names
573 o The Key ID may now be specified as an argument to asdcp-test
577 2004.12.30 - bug fixes + wav files v0.8.14
578 o Added WAV file write to asdcp-test (uses mxflib::waveheader_t).
579 o Three-partition files reading properly. adscplib still writes
581 o Changes in the mxflib WAV essence parser API had broken
582 asdcplib's ability to read essence from a WAV file. I have
583 fixed this bug, but at the expense of breaking compatibility
584 with older versions of mxflib. Beware!
585 o Removed redundant (but working) bin-text-bin conversions.
588 2004.12.23 - JPEG 2000 support v0.8.13
589 o Reads/writes JPEG 2000 essence in plaintext and ciphertext
590 with the following caveats:
591 - The Picture Essence Descriptor is empty.
592 - Because there is no essence descriptor, the reader code
593 in asdcp-test has no idea how many frames are in the file
594 and ends with an out-of-bounds frame error. This error
595 is being suppressed in asdcp-test for the current release.
596 o Still broken when reading three-partition files.
599 2004.10.22 - fixes and UL updates v0.7.11
600 WARNING: COMPATIBILITY BREAKPOINT
601 Files created with this and future versions of this library are
602 not compatible with previous versions of this library. As you
603 might suspect, files created with previous versions of this
604 library are not compatible with this and future versions.
606 o h__Reader will now open a three-partitition file (untested)

629 o encryption of MPEG and PCM essence supported with the
632 - no plaintext offest support
633 - no raw ciphertext read support
634 o moved to reflecting the whole KLV triplet in the CBR
635 index (now incompatible with mxflib, still searching
636 for info about what's "right")
637 o awaitng the following fixes/features:
638 - retrieve Temporal Offset from index in MPEG2::Reader
639 - test for correct ULs when reading frame triplets
640 - fix header metadata items for encrypted files
642 - plaintext offest support
643 - raw ciphertext read support
646 2004.06.14 - plaintext read/write w/key generator v0.4.5
647 o Project now uses OpenSSL (tested with 0.9.7d on win32, Linux, Darwin)
648 Use `make ASDCP_WITHOUT_OPENSSL=1` to make plaintext-only version
649 o Accepts interior I frames when parsing MPEG2 VES
650 o Improved error reporting on format errors
651 o Added support for encryption to asdcp-test
652 o Added RNG for asdcp-test (non-production use only, see notes in FortunaRNG.h)
653 o Implemented CBC encrypt, decrypt module

672 o hasty release for quick review
673 o this release may not build with mxflib using autoconf.
674 o writes plaintext AS-DCP MPEG2 essence files
675 o tested under win32 and linux. FreeBSD and Darwin do not work
678 2004.02.04 - First release (v0.1.1):
679 o asdcp-test is mostly complete. It should correctly provide
680 access to the read and info capabilities of the library.
681 o The MPEG2 reader is functional but not fully tested.
682 o Some file format integrity tests remain to be coded.
683 o The PCM reader is mostly complete, I am having difficulty
684 getting a suitable test file from mxfwrap.
685 o The makefile creates a static library module. The API
686 will cleanly support a DSO (or DLL). Let me know if DSO
687 support is important to you.
688 o Nothing is thread safe. Thread safety was not a requirement
689 in the initial project definition. Thread safety may be added
690 above the mxflib/klvlib level. Let me know if it is important
692 o The files xmldict.xml and types.xml must be in the current
693 directory when the program is run. The files are supplied
694 with mxflib. Runtime location of the files is not currently
695 a project goal. Comments on how best to handle this situation
696 would be appreciated. See AS_DCP.cpp at init_mxf_types()
697 for a more detailed discussion.
