Comment: This article needs to be rewritten to be understandable to a general audience. Currently it is highly esoteric and uses technical language. The references are not formatted correctly; please use the citation generator to generate correct references. Also, please check whether the article is notable according to independent, reliable sources. If it is not or if it is borderline, the topic may be a better fit for adding some mention to an existing article, rather than creating a new standalone article.

Networked Media Open Specifications (NMOS) are a group of open-source specifications intended to allow interoperability on the control layer for media devices on an Internet Protocol (IP) infrastructure.[1] NMOS provide discovery, registration and control services for the SMPTE ST 2110 media over IP networks, and other media over IP applications.[2]
History
[edit]The NMOS specifications were created by the Advanced Media Workflow Association (AMWA), and are made available under the Apache-2.0 Licence.
The first NMOS specification (IS-04 v1.0.0) was published by AMWA in April 2016.[3] There have been 15 total published releases of the IS-04 NMOS Discovery and Registration Specification, the most recent being v1.3.3 in December 2024.[4][5]
The NMOS Connection Management API (IS-05) was released in October 2017. There have been 6 total published releases of IS-05, the most recent being v1.2.2 in October 2022.[6]
Interface Specifications
[edit]There are currently two NMOS interface specifications (IS) deemed critical for the success of ST 2110:[7][8]
- IS-04 - Discovery and Registration – IS-04 helps devices find each other and announce their capabilities.
- IS-05 - Connection Management – IS-05 allows the configuration of connections between devices called Senders and Receivers.
There are six other NMOS specifications:[9]
- IS-07 - Event and Tally
- IS-08 - Audio Channel Mapping
- IS-09 - Systems Parameters
- IS-10 - Authorization
- IS-11 - Stream Compatibility Management
- IS-12 - Control Protocol
The development of at least two more specifications (IS-13 and IS-14) is in progress. IS-06 - Network Control is deprecated as of September 2022.[10]
Recognition & Reception
[edit]NMOS specifications have been endorsed by several industry organizations, including the European Broadcasting Union, which published a position statement in 2019 urging the accelerated adoption of NMOS.[11] The Joint Task Force on Networked Media (JT-NM) have endorsed NMOS as a key enabling technology for SMPTE ST 2110 environments.[12] Leaders from technology companies like Sony and Nextera Video have spoken on record about their support of NMOS.[13]
