<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Rodney and All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We had a good meeting with Hugh and James with our GRC media group, who have the hardware encoder from Sandy, and are awaiting an additional piece (or two?) which should be arriving Friday or perhaps Monday of next week. Our plan is to
conduct the testing in their media lab, as Hugh and James have graciously offered to provide their talents on the video side of the tests while we handle the DTN processing. To reiterate, we are planning on the following streaming configurations for the test
points:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">720P30 h.264 @ 2 Mbps<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">720P60 h.264 @ 4 Mbps<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1080P30 h.265 @ 4 Mpbs, 6 Mbps and 8 Mbps<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1080P60 h.265 @ 6 Mbps and 8 Mbps<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2160P30 h.265 @ 6 Mpbs and 8 Mbps<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">2160P60 h.265 @ 8 Mbps<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A few important questions remain:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo3">Any priority to the above points, such as start with the highest load and step down from there?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">**Probably best to start with the more complex and work your way down (2160P60 @ 8Mbs >)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo3">One unknown still is the media source. Walt, were you still sending a camera? GRC may also have equipment available in the ITC studio, but it sounds like we need to check for the
encoder interconnect compatibility with the component yet to arrive. <o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">**I will let Walt answer that one. I’d be surprised if there wasn’t a camera available there at GRC.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo3">Should we rather utilize a standardized complex test pattern/protocol instead of a random live camera image?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">**Something with motion, preferably random motion. Moving water like a small desktop water feature would be good, something with hard edges, like small streamers with a fan behind it. Use your
imagination. Walt could give you some ideas.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo3">We are getting very close to the end of the month, so am I correct in understanding you need these results for the upcoming CCSDS meeting? And if so, what is your actual deadline
so we can rally around it?<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">**Yes, I sent out the agenda today. Tuesday morning, April 30<sup>th</sup> is when we’d like to be able to discuss the results. Please verify you saw my CCSDS email.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l5 level1 lfo3">Finally, what kind of verification for test success are you looking for? Are simple bit checks between the source and destination file content after transmitting across a DTN sufficient?
We could perform some post-processing quality metrics, but given the time crunch I don’t know what all we could promise here.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Aptos",sans-serif">**Visual confirmation of quality looking video (subjective) and then analysis of whether the stream dropped frames/packets, bit-error rates.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We’re still very committed to conducting these tests for you, so as soon as the equipment situation can be sorted we can commence the testing.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance for your timeliness.<o:p></o:p></p>
