AVC-Intra defines two classes: •AVC-Intra 50: •AVC-Intra 100: •nominally 50 Mbit/s, size of each frame is fixed •nominally 100 Mbit/s, size of each frame is fixed •CABAC entropy coding only. •CAVLC entropy coding only. •1920 × 1080 formats are High 10 Intra Profile, •All formats are High 4:2:2 Intra Profile, Level Level 4 4.1 •1280 × 720 formats are High 10 Intra Profile, Level •4:2:2 chrominance sampling 3.2 •frames are not scaled •4:2:0 chrominance sampling Common to both classes; frames are horizontally scaled by 3/4 (1920x1080 is • •Frame rates: 1920 × 1080 (23.98p / 25p / scaled to 1440x1080. 1280 × 720 is scaled to 29.97p / 50i / 59.94i), 1280 × 720 (23.98p / 25p / 960x720) 29.97p / 50p / 59.94p) •10 bit luma and chroma
