<section1 topic='Introduction' anchor='intro'>
<p>&xep0166; can be used to initiate and negotiate a wide range of peer-to-peer sessions. One session type of interest is video exchange. This document specifies a format for describing Jingle video sessions.</p>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Requirements' anchor='reqs'>
<p>The Jingle content description format defined herein is designed to meet the following requirements:</p>
<ol>
<li>Enable negotiation of parameters necessary for video exchange.</li>
<li>Map these parameters to Session Description Protocol (SDP; see &rfc4566;) to enable interoperability.</li>
<li>Define informational messages related to video exchange chat.</li>
</ol>
</section1>
<section1 topic='Content Description Format' anchor='format'>
<p>A Jingle video session is described by one or more encodings contained within a wrapper &DESCRIPTION; element. In the language of <cite>RFC 4566</cite> these encodings are payload-types; therefore, each &lt;payload-type/&gt; child element specifies an encoding that can be used for the video stream. Such encodings are often used in the context of the Real-time Transfer Protocol (RTP; see &rfc3550;) but may be used in other contexts as well. The most common encodings for the Audio/Video Profile (AVP) of RTP are listed in &rfc3551; (these "static" types are reserved from payload ID 0 through payload ID 96), although other encodings are allowed (these "dynamic" types use payload IDs 97 to 127) in accordance with the dynamic assignment rules described in Section 3 of <cite>RFC 3551</cite>. The &PAYLOADTYPE; element's 'id' attribute is REQUIRED and its 'name' attribute is RECOMMENDED. The encodings SHOULD be provided in order of preference.</p>
<example caption="Video Description Format"><![CDATA[
<description xmlns='http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0166.html#ns/description/video'>
<payload-type id='18' name='G729'/>
<payload-type id='97' name='IPCMWB'/>
<payload-type id='98' name='L16' transparent='true'/>
<payload-type id='13' name='CN'/>
</description>
]]></example>
<p>The &DESCRIPTION; element is intended to be a child of a &JINGLE; element as specified in <cite>XEP-0166</cite>.</p>
<p>The defined attributes of the &PAYLOADTYPE; element are as follows:</p>
<table caption='Video Description Attributes'>
<tr>
<th>Attribute</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th>Datatype/Units</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>channels</td>
<td>The number of channels (e.g., 2 for stereoscopic video)</td>
<td>positiveInteger (defaults to 1)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>height</td>
<td>The vertical extent of the displayed video, in pixels</td>
<td>positiveInteger</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>id</td>
<td>A unique identifier for the payload type</td>
<td>positiveInteger</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>layer</td>
<td>The relationship of a layer to the "bottom" of the stack, where 0 = bottom (the first layer)</td>
<td>nonNegativeInteger</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>name</td>
<td>A name for the payload type</td>
<td>string</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>transparent</td>
<td>Whether or not a layer is transparent</td>
<td>boolean</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>width</td>
<td>The horizontal extent of the displayed video, in pixels</td>
<td>positiveInteger</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>x</td>
<td>The horizontal starting point of a tile, in pixels from the origin point</td>
<td>positiveInteger</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>y</td>
<td>The vertical starting point of a tile, in pixels from the origin point</td>
<td>positiveInteger</td>
</tr>

<p>If an entity supports the Jingle video content description format, it MUST advertise that fact by returning a feature of "http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0166.html#ns/description/video" in response to &xep0030; information requests.</p>

<section1 topic='Informational Messages' anchor='info'>
<p>Informational messages may be sent by either party within the context of Jingle to communicate the status of a Jingle video session, device, or principal. The informational message MUST be an IQ-set containing a &JINGLE; element of type "content-info", where the informational message is a payload element qualified by the 'http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0166.html#ns/info/video' namespace. No payload elements have yet been defined, but will be specified in a future version of this document.</p>
