The link results in a 403 HTTP status (Forbidden) right now. Anyway, I guess this is a link to the MPEG-2 Systems specifications, which are not freely available, so no mater whether the link works or not, it should be removed. Teyut (talk) 19:03, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Forward compatibility between System Stream (MPEG-1) and Program Stream (MPEG-2)

The article states that MPEG-2 Program Stream is forward compatible with ISO/IEC 11172 Systems layer (MPEG-1). However, the pack header format from MPEG-2 is different than the one in MPEG-1, so MPEG-1 de-multiplexers cannot decode it. Where is the forward compatibility then? MPEG-2 PS is backward compatible with MPEG-1 SS though. Teyut (talk) 19:06, 24 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The citation 12 has a broken link http://smpte-ra.org/mpegreg/mpeg.html for SMPTE as the registration authority for MPEG stream identifiers. I believe the correct link is: https://smpte-ra.org/mpeg-ts-ids Chris Dolan (talk) 17:09, 13 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
