Those on the To: list have expressed interest in performing semi-formal audio subjective testing on the candidate codec. If possible, let’s have a conference call sometime next week so we can begin discussion of this testing prior to the Beijing meeting. Let me know what times will work for you. And of course, anyone on the codec list interested in joining in, please let me know.

Some items to discuss:

 *   choosing representative source material (languages, music genres, etc)
 *   orthogonality of test cases (bit rates / internal sample rates, packet loss conditions, etc)
 *   representative packet loss scenarios
 *   subjective pool size
 *   how often to test
 *   etc etc

Cheers,

Mike
