What is HTML5? Let's make sure we're talking about the same thing… Video on the Web codecs, , streaming, fragments More TV-Relevant Features CSS, SVG, Canvas Web Applications Device , Widgets W3C: Shaping the Web of the future

Web Standards (X)HTML, CSS, XML, SVG, PNG, XSLT, WCAG, RDF, ... Consortium 330 members, from industry and research World-wide Offices in many countries, including Brazil, China, India, Morocco, South Africa, ... One Web! Founded and directed by inventor of the Web, Tim Berners-Lee Global participation 32,000 people subscribed to mailing lists, 1,500+ participants in 60+ Groups Part 1: What is HTML5? HTML5, what is it?

It's a specification developed by the W3C HTML Working Group:

Video on the Web Web applications Canvas new APIs …

And more importantly:

HTML on the move Disruptive technology The Next Open

The HTML5 specification is a portion of the next Open Web platform:

HTML5 Indexed Database

CSS 2.1 Web Workers

CSS 3 Selectors Web Sockets Protocol/API

CSS 3 Media Queries Geolocation

CSS 3 Text Progress Events

CSS 3 Backgrounds and Borders Element Traversal

CSS 3 Colors DOM Level 3 Events

CSS 3 2D Transformations Media Fragments

CSSOM View Module XMLHttpRequest

CSS 3 Transitions Selectors API

CSS 3 Animations CSSOM View Module

CSS 3 Multi-Columns File API

CSS Namespaces RDFa

SVG 1.1 Microdata

WAI-ARIA 1.0 WOFF

MathML 2.0 HTTP 1.1 part 1 to part 7

ECMAScript 5 TLS 1.2 (updated)

2D Context IRI (updated)

WebGL …

Web Storage

Legend: spec: developed within W3C spec: developed outside of W3C (IETF, , ECMA) Quick background on HTML5

History

Effort started by , while working at 2004: Opera, , and Apple creates the WHAT WG 2007: W3C restarts the HTML Working Group 2010: Apple, , Mozilla, , and Opera (and others) are implementing, or are committed to, HTML5

The HTML working group in W3C

Chaired by (Apple), Paul Cotton (Microsoft), Sam Ruby (IBM) 40 W3C Member organizations, all committed to W3C Royalty-Free terms 439 group participants 259 Invited Experts (most of them public invited experts) 10 mailing lists 7553 emails on public-… since January 2010

Roadmap

W3C Last Call in May 2011 Part 2: Video on the Web The

A regular HTML tag

A standard API

var vid = document.getElementById("vid"); vid.play(); vid.pause(); vid.currentTime = 0;

Interaction with CSS

video { border-radius: 2em; translate(100px, -100px) skewY(30deg) scale(0.5,0.5); opacity: 0.5; } Video and Canvas

The HTML5 tag allows for direct manipulation of video data:

Dump video to a tag Analyse video frame as an array of pixels with JavaScript React consequently

Muppet says: Open Media Web! Video and Vector Graphics

W3C Standard released in 2001 (SVG 1.2 released in 2009) SVG is included in HTML5 Complete freedom to redesign user interfaces Possibility to clip and filter video at will

Tick!

[Clock ticking] [tick, tick, tick, …]

00:05 04:23 CC Audio/Video: Codecs and formats

Lots of challenges and patents.

Video codec H.264 (profiles?), VP8, , Dirac 2.1, … Audio codec AAC, WMA, , PCV, … Captioning, video description SAMI, SMIL, Hi-Caption, CMML, TTML, 3GPP TS 26.245, MPSub, … Container format .avi, .mp4, .mov, ., .flv, .mkv, …

No default audio/video/container format in HTML5 for the time being.

Captioning format will be specified by HTML5. Projected support in main Web browsers

Internet Explorer (>=9) H.264 (profile?) in an MP4 container (desktop, iPhone, iPad) H.264 Baseline in an MP4 container Theora in an OGG container VP8 in a WebM container Opera Theora in an OGG container VP8 in a WebM container H.264 Baseline in an MP4 container Theora in an OGG container VP8 in a WebM container

At a minimum, once browsers are out:

One version that uses VP8 in a WebM container (Vorbis for audio) Another version that uses H.264 Baseline in an MP4 container (AAC low complexity for audio) Metadata

Many standards MPEG-7, CableLabs, TV-ANytime, EBU, XML, … Ontology for Media Resource 1.0 Last Call working draft, EBU is among participants API for Media Resource 1.0 Media fragments

Progressive download — basic file transfer HTTP streaming — same with byte range Using other transport protocols — UDP, DCCP and the like HTTP adaptive streaming

HTTP Live Streaming by Apple IIS Smooth Streaming by Microsoft for Silverlight Dynamic streaming in Player 10.1 3GPP adaptive HTTP Streaming (AHS)

OpenIP TV Forum MPEG Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH)

What about browsers that will support WebM?

More standardization needed both at protocol level (IETF?) and HTML/API level (W3C?)

Web and TV Interest Group at W3C: [email protected] Peer-to-peer connections

Ongoing efforts that relate to P2P

WebSockets (API and protocol) for text-based connections between a client and a server HTML Device specification extracted from the HTML5 spec

No P2P protocol/API in HTML5 so far.

Call for actions issued by the editor of the specification in July 2010. Main use cases

Main use cases that will push for P2P

Video conferencing Real-time games Peer-to-peer file transfer Part 3: More TV-relevant Features CSS Transitions

CSS Transitions describe how CSS properties change smoothly from one value to another over a given duration.

Example (CSS transitions must be supported):
