Networked Media Open Specifications: Introduction

Networked Media Open Specifications

NMOS is a family name for specifications produced by the Advanced Media Workflow Association related to networked media for professional applications.

For a non-technical introduction to NMOS see AMWA's overview page.

The tables below list the current specifications and provide links to their documentation on specs.amwa.tv. The "Release" links will take you to the documentation and download page (↓) for the latest release of recent versions of the specification.

The tables no longer include direct links to the GitHub repos. These are available through the NMOS CI Dashboard.

The NMOS API Testing Tool supports the majority of these specifications.

NMOS Interface Specifications (IS)

These specify NMOS APIs using RAML, JSON Schema and normative text, supported by examples and other text:

{% include spec_table.html filter_id="IS-" show_releases=true %}

NMOS Data Model Specifications (MS)

These model the resources used in NMOS APIs:

{% include spec_table.html filter_id="MS-" show_releases=true %}

NMOS Best Common Practices (BCP)

These specify best practice for use of NMOS APIs:

{% include spec_table.html filter_id="BCP-" show_releases=true %}

NMOS Informative Documents (INFO)

These provide NMOS implementation guides:

{% include spec_table.html filter_id="INFO-" %}

NMOS Parameter Registers

These specify constants for many types of NMOS parameter values:

The table of NMOS specs is no longer contained in this README, but is generated on demand from YAML files in each spec repo and rendered at https://specs.amwa.tv/nmos:
