A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
This draft is a work item of the Audio/Video Transport Working Group of the IETF.

	Title		: RTP Payload Format for Bundled MPEG
	Author(s)	: R. Civanlar, G. Cash, B. Haskell
	Filename	: draft-civanlar-bmpeg-02.txt
	Pages		: 8
	Date		: 21-Nov-97
	
This document describes a payload type for bundled, MPEG-2 encoded
  video and audio data that may be used with RTP, version 2. Bundling
  has some advantages for this payload type particularly when it is used
  for video-on-demand applications. This payload type may be used when
  its advantages are important enough to sacrifice the modularity of
  having separate audio and video streams.
 
  A technique to improve packet loss resilience based on ''out-of-band''
  transmission of MPEG-2 specific, vital information is described as an
  Appendix.
 
  A section on security considerations for this payload type is added.

NOTE:	The mail server at ds.internic.net can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
