Hi All,
     I am looking for all the relevant video test bitstreams for MPEG-4 
Simple Profile. I am referring to the document "Part 4: Conformance 
testing" (ISO/IEC 14496-4:2000(E) ).
    This document mentions availability of a Normative Test Suite 
(Section 4.5.7) as well Bitstreams Donated by MPEG-4 Platform 
Verification Bitstream Development Project (Section 4.5.8).
    I looked at http://www.m4if.org/resources.php which in turn points 
to ftp://ftp.tnt.uni-hannover.de/pub/MPEG/video/conformance/ for MPEG-4 
Video Conformance Bitstreams. But if follow this link, I see 2 folders, 
"version 1" and "version 2". The folder "version 2" seems to be more 
recent but seems to be missing quite a few bitstreams as listed out in 
Section 4.5.7. 
    Also, I have not able to find out where the bitstreams Donated by 
MPEG-4 Platform Verification Bitstream Development Project are located. 
One earlier posting 
(http://lists.mpegif.org/pipermail/mp4-tech/2002-August/001114.html) 
mentions a way to find these bitstreams but I don't think it works any more.
    Any pointers will be really appreciated.
Regards,
Shailendra
