  44. <p>NUT is a low overhead generic container format. It stores audio, video,
  45. subtitle and user-defined streams in a simple, yet efficient, way.
  46. </p>
  47. <p>It was created by a group of FFmpeg and MPlayer developers in 2003
  48. and was finalized in 2008.
  49. </p>
  50. <p>The official nut specification is at svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/nut
  51. In case of any differences between this text and the official specification,
  52. the official specification shall prevail.

  56. <p>NUT has some variants signaled by using the flags field in its main header.

  64. <p>The BROADCAST variant provides a secondary time reference to facilitate
  65. detecting endpoint latency and network delays.
  66. It assumes all the endpoint clocks are synchronized.
  67. To be used in real-time scenarios.

  71. <p>The PIPE variant assumes NUT is used as non-seekable intermediate container,
  72. by not using syncpoint removes unneeded overhead and reduces the overall
  73. memory usage.

  79. <p>Since many exotic planar YUVA pixel formats are not considered by
  80. the AVI/QuickTime FourCC lists, the following scheme is adopted for
  81. representing them.
  82. </p>
  83. <p>The first two bytes can contain the values:
  84. Y1 = only Y
  85. Y2 = Y+A
  86. Y3 = YUV
  87. Y4 = YUVA
  88. </p>
  89. <p>The third byte represents the width and height chroma subsampling
  90. values for the UV planes, that is the amount to shift the luma
  91. width/height right to find the chroma width/height.
  92. </p>
  93. <p>The fourth byte is the number of bits used (8, 16, ...).
  94. </p>
  95. <p>If the order of bytes is inverted, that means that each component has
  96. to be read big-endian.
