ABSTRACT:
A method for formatting data is disclosed in which a bitstream containing a very large number of bits is divided into a number of frames all of which are the same size except for a last frame which can have a smaller size than the other frames. Each frame has a frame header and a data portion and the data portion can include a number of records which each contain a record header and data portion. A frame directory specifies certain parameters for all frames of a bitstream.
