The ILMKlvBuilder interface is provided by the LEAD MPEG-2 Transport Multiplexer to simplify the task of parsing Key Length Value (KLV) data. It can be obtained from the multiplexer by reading the ILMMpg2MxT::KlvBuilder property.
Use the KlvBuilder to build and create private data conforming to SMPTE 336M-2007. There are two standards supported by this interface : Universal Metadata Set and Local Metadata Set.
In this standard, keys are formatted and identified as GIUD values indicated by a 16-bit hexadecimal string.
One example of an application of this standard is the one used for vehicles of type Predator UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle): Basic Universal Metadata Set MISB EG 0104.4
In this standard, keys are formatted and identified as short values indicated by an ULONG type.
One example of an application of this standard is the one used for systems of type UAS (Unmanned Air System): Datalink Local Metadata Set Motion Industry Standards Board (MISB) STD 0601.5
The MISB STD 0902.1 provides a refinement of the 0601.5 standard and separates the local metadata described in 0601.5 into "slow" metadata (which changes less often and should be sent every 10 seconds) and "fast" metadata, which changes every time. For example, the MissionID or the plane's name are considered "slow", because they don't change during the recording. So you can save bandwidth by sending these at rare intervals. On the other hand, the metadata describing the position of the plane is considered "fast", because it changes all the time, so it should be written every time new metadata is generated by the plane's sensor. Also, throughout the standard, the plane is referred to as "platform", since the plane can be in fact an unmanned submarine or some other object other than a plane.
MISB Standard 0102.9 describes how to save Security Metadata using Universal or Local sets. You can save them in either format. Consult the standards to determine which keys and values to write and pass the correct information.

Type |
Name |
Description |
long |
Count |
The number of complete top-level KLV keys contained in the internal interface buffer. An incomplete KLV key will not be included in the count. |
BYTE[] |
GroupKey |
Group key defined by the user that is an independent KLV builder; it can be added to the main KLV Builder. |
float |
SlowMmsRateInterval |
Ratio of slowness of the Slow MMS data to the Fast MMS data. 10.0 is the default value which mean the slow data will be sent one time for every 10 seconds of Fast Data. If this value is one, both the slow and fast data are sent at the same rate. Valid values are between 0 and 10,000. Call this property once to set the rate and then call the FilterMmsData method after you write all of the data (both slow and fast). The FilterMmsData method performs the actual filtering according to the rate set by this property. Some MMS items change more rapidly than others. When sending MMS data in a bandwidth constrained environment, it is more efficient to dedicate the bulk of the available bandwidth to the rapidly changing values, and include the constant items less often. See MISB STD 0902.1 for more details. |
VARIANT_BOOL |
EnableMmsRecommendedSettings |
Certain metadata items (strings) can be as much as 127 bytes in length. For efficiency, limit strings to the maximum recommended size of 20 bytes. If EnableMmsRecommendedSettings is VARIANT_TRUE, then the long metatdata will be truncated to the recommended size. Otherwise, the long data will be set. See MISB STD 0902.1 for more details. |
Data |
Variant containing the private data. |
DataLength |
The amount of data contained in Data. |
Use this method to begin building private data-containing KLV packets. The AddData method uses the smaller of the DataLength parameter and the actual array size. It is particularly useful from ILMMpgDmxCallback::DataAvailable when processing a source file containing KLV data. Build up the KLV data using this method and then edit the individual keys afterwards. This method appends the supplied data to the internal buffer. Call the Clear method to restart the process. The Data parameter must contain a pointer to a byte array.
S_OK if successful, < 0 if an error occurred.
E_POINTER [0x80004003] Data is NULL
E_INVALIDARG [0x80070057] Data is not a byte array variant
GroupKey |
Pointer to a VARIANT that holds the key for SubBuilder. The key will be a 16-byte array. |
pVal |
A pointer to a location to store a new builder interface pointer. |
Creates an independent builder for constructing subkeys.
S_OK if successful, < 0 if an error occurred.
Value |
Meaning |
E_POINTER |
[0x80004003] ppBuilder is NULL |
keyIndex |
The index of the key to delete. The index is 0-based, so allowed values are 0..Count - 1. |
Deletes an existing key.
S_OK if successful, < 0 if an error occurred.
Value |
Meaning |
DISP_E_BADINDEX |
[0x8002000B] keyIndex is invalid. |
KeyToFind |
Variant describing which key to look for. |
searchFlags |
One of the flags in the Mpg2MxT_SearchKey enumeration. These flags tell the parser whether the match should be exact. |
pKey |
Pointer to a VARIANT that will be updated with a key describing the data. The key will be a 16-byte array describing the variant data. This key tells you how to interpret the key data contained in pKeyData. |
pKeyData |
Pointer to a VARIANT that will be updated key data. The key data will be a byte array variant regardless of the real format of the key data. |
pDataSize |
Pointer to a long variable that will be updated with the number of bytes stored in pKeyData. This is the same as the size of the pKeyData variant. |
Use searchFlags to specify whether you require an exact match for the key for which you are looking. Possible values for searchFlags are:
Mpg2MxT_SearchKey_Exact |
An exact match is required. All 16 bytes of the key must match. |
Mpg2MxT_SearchKey_AnyVersion |
For a match to be acceptable, all key bytes must match, with the exception of the version key (the 7th byte). |
Mpg2MxT_SearchKey_DesignatorOnly |
For a match to be acceptable, the key designator component must match. The key designator is stored in the last 8 bytes of the key. |
This function goes through the top keys in the buffer and compares them with the key passed in KeyToFind. If the key from the buffer matches exactly or partially (as permitted by searchFlags), then the key found is stored in pKey, the key data is stored in pKeyData and the key length is stored in pDataSize.
S_OK if successful, < 0 if an error occurred.
Value |
Meaning |
E_POINTER |
[0x80004003] pKey, pKeyData or pDataSize is NULL. |
Mpg2MxT_E_KEY_NOT_FOUND |
[0x80050010] There is no key matching KeyToFind and searchFlags. |

KeyToFind |
String describing which key to look for. |
searchFlags |
One of the flags in the Mpg2MxT_SearchKey enumeration. These flags tell the parser whether the match should be exact |
pKey |
Pointer to a VARIANT that will be updated with a key describing the data. The key will be a 16-byte array describing the variant data. This key tells you how to interpret the key data contained in pKeyData. |

pDataSize |
Pointer to a long variable that will be updated with the number of bytes stored in pKeyData. This is the same as the size of the pKeyData variant. |
This method works exactly like FindKey, except that the key to search for is passed as a string, rather than a VARIANT.
KeyToFind is a string containing a hexadecimal representation of the bytes in the key. Each byte should be represented by two hexadecimal digits. Each digit can be:
'0'..'9' or
'a'..'.f' or
'A'..'F'
Space characters are ignored. For example, "06 0E 2B 34 01 0101 04 07 02 01 0101 05 00 00"; is equivalent to "060E2B34010101040702010101050000".
For more information on each parameter, see the description for FindKey.

Description
Use this method to enumerate all the keys contained in a private data sample. This method enumerates all the data passed to AddData.
The method allocates data for the pKey and pKeyData variants. Make sure you free the memory allocated in these variants if your programming language does not do so automatically. For example, VB automatically frees this memory, but C/C++ does not. In C++, free the variant memory by calling VariantClear. Please consult the documentation for your programming language for more information on how to free the variant data.
Examine pKey to find out how to interpret the key data. The IKlvBuilder will not interpret the key data for you. There is no one document describing all the KLV keys that can be found in a stream. You will find various documents describing certain lists of currently defined keys. Each company that generates MPEG-2 transport streams or files can write their own internal keys in a private data stream. At the time of writing this documentation, the following documents contained information on KLV keys and how to interpret their content:
UAV Datalink Local Metadata Set (MISB STD 0601.5 6 October 2011)
Predator UAV Basic Universal Metadata Set (MISB EG 0104.4 14 December 2006)
Interpret key data based on this and other documents. For example:
Key: 06 0E 2B 34 01 0101 04 07 02 01 0101 05 00 00
Is a "User Defined Time Stamp (microseconds since 1970)" in msb bit order and the key should be 8 bytes long. In this case, you should verify that *pDataSize is 8. If *pDataSize is 8, you should convert the 8-byte array into a 64-bit unsigned integer (or a double floating point if your programming language does not support 64-bit integers). You would then convert the 64-bit value into a date and time by counting the microseconds since 1970.

After writing all of the MMS metadata, call FilterMmsData to filter out the slow data according to the interval set in SlowMmsRateInterval and MISB STD 0902.1. The 0902.1 Standard identifies which tags are considered "slow" tags (so should be sent less often) and which tags should be considered "fast" (and should be sent every time). The SlowMmsRateInterval determines how often the slow data tags should be written. For example, if the SlowMmsRateInterval is 10.0, the slow data will be sent every 10 seconds (which is the recommended behavior in MISB STD 0902.1).
To write data compatible with MISB STD 0902.1), you have two choices:
1. Filter the data yourself and add slow data every 10 seconds (or however often you wish). In this case, you do not need to call FilterMmsData or set SlowMmsRateInterval.
2. Add all the data every time, set SlowMmsRateInterval to the desired frequency for the slow data and call FilterMmsData right before calling WriteKlvData to remove the remove the slow tags if less than 'SlowMmsRateInterval' number of seconds have passed since the last time the slow data has been sent.
If this function is not called, all the data will be sent every time WriteKlvData() is called (which means SlowMmsRateInterval will have no effect).
