Sometimes the value coded in the Stored Height field of the Video descriptor is the Field height and sometimes it is the Frame height. How to solve this ambiguity ?

The same is the case with Sample rate. Sometimes it is the field rate and sometimes frame rate.

Can somebody please elaborate on this.
Thanks in advance

The value depends on FrameLayout as follows:

FULL_FRAME = frame height
SEPARATE_FIELDS = field height
SINGLE_FIELD = field height
MIXED_FIELDS = frame height
SEGMENTED_FRAME = frame height

Thanks for the reply Matt. Can I assume the same with the sample rate ?

FULL_FRAME = frame rate
SEPARATE_FIELDS = field rate
SINGLE_FIELD = field rate
MIXED_FIELDS = frame rate
SEGMENTED_FRAME = frame rate

That sounds about right - although I would be tempted to use frame rate for SINGLE_FIELD as this is basically the rate at which the data we are receiving was captured.
