Photon is a Java implementation of the Interoperable Master Format (IMF) standard. Photon offers tools for parsing, interpreting and validating constituent files that make an Interoperable Master Package (IMP). These include:
- AssetMap (ST 429-9)
- PackingList (ST 429-8)
- Composition Playlist (ST 2067-3)
- IMF track files (ST 2067-5)
Photon parses and reads IMF track files and serializes the metadata into the IMF Composition Playlist structure. Currently, Photon provides support for IMF Application #2E (ST 2067-21) and Application #5 ACES (ST 2067-50), and the Immersive Audio Bitstream (IAB) Plug-in (ST 2067-201).
The goal of the Photon is to provide a simple standardized interface to completely validate an IMP.
Photon can be built using JDK-8. Support for earlier jdk versions has not been tested and/or verified.
Photon can be built very easily by using the included Gradle wrapper. Having downloaded the sources, simply invoke the following commands inside the folder containing the sources:
$ ./gradlew clean
$ ./gradlew build
For Windows
$ gradlew.bat clean
$ gradlew.bat build
Binaries and dependency information for Maven, Ivy, Gradle and others can be found at http://search.maven.org.
Change history and version numbers are available at CHANGELOG.md.
Example for Maven:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.netflix.photon</groupId>
<artifactId>Photon</artifactId>
<version>0.1.1</version>
</dependency>and for Ivy:
<dependency org="com.netflix.photon" name="Photon" rev="0.1.1" />If you need to download all dependencies, you just have to run:
$ ./gradlew getDependencies
It will download all dependencies into ./build/libs directory, where Photon.*.jar is built. Multiple sample applications have been provided with this project (e.g., com.netflix.imflibrary.app.IMFTrackFileReader). Having obtained the dependencies, you can run an application as follows:
java -cp ./build/libs/*: <fully qualified class name> <zero or more arguments>
E.g.,
java -cp ./build/libs/*: com.netflix.imflibrary.st0429_9.AssetMap asset_map_file_path
java -cp ./build/libs/*: com.netflix.imflibrary.st0429_8.PackingList packing_list_file_path
java -cp ./build/libs/*: com.netflix.imflibrary.st2067_2.Composition composition_playlist_file_path
java -cp ./build/libs/*: com.netflix.imflibrary.app.IMPAnalyzer IMP_folder_path
