Klvdata is a Python library for parsing and constructing Key Length Value (KLV) formatted binary streams. Common uses of the library would be parsing and displaying MISB ST 0601 Unmanned Air System (UAS) metadata from STANAG 4609 compliant MPEG-2 Transport Streams (TS) (MPEG-TS). Note that klvdata alone cannot de-mux KLV data from an MPEG-2 TS, but programs like FFmpeg and GStreamer can be used with klvdata in the workflow to perform the function.
Not many opensource options available.
- Parses KLV metadata streams.
- Supports MISB ST 0601 UAS Datalink Local Set.
- Supports MISB ST 0102 Security Metadata Local Set.
- Built for Python 3.5, 3.6.
- Requires no external Python dependencies.
Try these commands in your GNU/Linux terminal.
First:
$ pip3 install klvdata
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/paretech/klvdata/master/data/DynamicConstantMISMMSPacketData.bin
$ cat << EOF > klvdata_test.py
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys, klvdata;
for packet in klvdata.StreamParser(sys.stdin.buffer.read()): packet.structure()
EOFAnd then:
