Details
Description
Specifies the number of active bits per sample (e.g. 8, 10, 12 etc).
Definition
Used in Checks, the system shall check whether the bit depth of the video encoding indicated in the wrapper metadata matches the expected one specified as input. Optionally the system may report the bit depth value.

Used in Reports, the system shall report the bit depth of the video encoding indicated in the wrapper metadata.

Examples
  • Input: "Video Bit Depth Expected"= 10 bits
    Output: "Check Result"= false
    Output: "Video Bit Depth"= 8 bits

    Remark: Used as a Check


  • Input: none
    Output: "Video Bit Depth"= 8 bits

    Remark: Used as a Report

Remarks
Typical values are 8, 10 and 12 bits.

This Test is a readout only and includes no measurement.

This metadata element is best effort metadata. If the detected value is a distinguished value, the search shall be continued until a non-distinguished value is found. If no non-distinguished value is found, the distinguished value shall be used.
