Summary

Scene-based metadata (SBM) for IPTV services defines the metadata element and format for content distribution over an IPTV terminal device and describes metadata management functions of SBM, which basically supports IPTV multimedia application frameworks in the Recommendation ITU-T H.760-series.

Scene-based metadata is based on ITU-T IPTV functional architecture and terminal devices found in the ITU-T H.720-series and on services defined in Recommendation ITU-T H.750.

This Recommendation also describes the Web-based functions for scene-based metadata service and the scene-based service workflow.
