RFC 3984: RTP Payload Format for H.264 Video

This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 6184.

Current version: RFC 6184RTP Payload Format for H.264 Video

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This memo describes an RTP Payload format for the ITU-T Recommendation H.264 video codec and the technically identical ISO/IEC International Standard 14496-10 video codec. The RTP payload format allows for packetization of one or more Network Abstraction Layer Units (NALUs), produced by an H.264 video encoder, in each RTP payload. The payload format has wide applicability, as it supports applications from simple low bit-rate conversational usage, to Internet video streaming with interleaved transmission, to high bit-rate video-on-demand.
