Direct Multimedia - Summary
---------------------------
Non-text data (multimedia) can be sent to the terminal for immediate
display in a rectangular (single-layer) region of text Cells.
Multimedia data is transmitted to the terminal using one of two wire
formats described later in this document.
Setting a Cell to multimedia is a destructive operation: the Cell's
original text is lost. Multimedia pixels will not overlap rendered
text in the same Cell. To achieve pixels overlaid on text, the layers
feature can be used.
Setting any part of a multi-Cell Tile to multimedia also "breaks up"
the Tile into a range of single Cells. In other words, multimedia can
only be carried by a Cell, not a Tile.
The pixels of a multimedia Cell are assigned to the Cell's foreground;
multimedia Cells have no background. If a terminal supports the
layers feature, setting a multimedia Cell's foreground transparency to
true/enabled causes that Cell to not be displayed at all; setting its
background transparency to either true/enabled or false/disabled has
no visible effect.
The pixels of multimedia Cells can come from two sources:
1. The application can generate pixels and send them to the terminal
for display at the current cursor position.
2. The application can specify a source for the multimedia and the
terminal will generate the pixels for display at the current
cursor position.

For the SIXEL command:
* The {data} is a sixel sequence as described in the VT330/340
Programmer Reference Manual, Chapter 14, available online at:
http://vt100.net/docs/vt3xx-gp/chapter14.html . The {data} is the
"P1 ; P2 ; P3 ; q s..s" portion of the Device Control String, i.e. a
complete sixel sequence minus the leading DCS and trailing ST.
* The sixel image is processed as shown below. Note that this
behavior is equivalent to Sixel Scrolling mode enabled.
- The sixel active position starts at the upper-left corner of the
text cursor position.
- The screen is scrolled up if the image overflows into the bottom
text row.
- Pixels that would be drawn to the right of the visible region on
screen are discarded.
- The cursor's final position is on the same column as the starting
cursor position, and on the row immediately below the image.
For the DMDISPLAY command:
* The {data} is a set of key-value pairs (each pair separated by
semicolon (';')), followed by a colon (':'), followed by a base-64
encoded string.
* A key can be any alpha-numeric ASCII string ('0' - '9', 'A' - 'Z',
'a' - 'z').
* A value is any printable ASCII string not containing whitespace,
colon, or semicolon ('!' - '9', '<' - '~').
* Any alpha-numeric key may be specified. A key that is not supported
by the terminal is ignored without error.
* The multimedia pixels are processed as shown below.
- The pixel are drawn starting at the upper-left corner of the text
cursor position.
- If scrolling is specified as enabled, then:
a. The screen is scrolled up if the image overflows into the
bottom text row.
b. The cursor's final position is on the same column as the
starting cursor position, and on the row immediately below the
image.
- If scrolling is omitted or specified as disabled, then:
a. The screen is never scrolled.
b. Pixels that would be drawn below the visible region on screen
are discarded.
c. The cursor's final position is at the same column and row as
the starting cursor position, i.e. the cursor does not move at
all.
- Pixels that would be drawn to the right of the visible region on
screen are discarded.

The "width" and "height" values can take the following forms:
| Value | Meaning |

| N (a positive integer) | Number of Cells |
| Npx (positive integer + "px") | Number of pixels |
| N% (positive integer + "%") | Percent of screen width or height |
| "auto" | Number of pixels as defined by the multimedia data |
The "scale" value can take the following values:
| Value | Meaning |
|------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|
| "none" | No scaling along either axis. |
| "scale" | Stretch image, preserving aspect ratio, to maximum size in the target area without cropping |
| "stretch" | Stretch along both axes, distorting aspect ratio, to fill the target area |
| "crop" | Stretch along both axes, preserving aspect ration, to completely fill the target area, cropping pixels that will not fit |
The "align" value can take the following values:
| Value | Meaning |
|------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
| "nw" | Media is placed at the top-left corner (northwest) |
| "n" | Media is placed on the top and centered horizontally (north) |

| "c" | Media is centered in the target area (center) |
| "e" | Media is placed on the right and centered vertically (east) |
| "sw" | Media is placed on the bottom-left corner (southwest) |
| "s" | Media is placed on the bottom and centered horizontally (south) |
| "se" | Media is placed on the bottom-right corner (southeast) |
The "type" value is a mime-type string describing the format of the
base64-encoded binary data. The terminal must support at mimunum these
mime-types:

| "image/rgb" | Big-endian-encoded 24-bit red, green, blue values |
| "image/rgba" | Big-endian-encoded 32-bit red, green, blue, alpha values |
| "image/png" | PNG file data as described by (reference to PNG format) |
A terminal may support additional types. An application can detect
terminal support for a format by: enabling terminal responses (DECSET
3001), sending a DMDISPLAY command, and examining the terminal's
response sequence for success or error.

If DMDISPLAY reponses are enabled, then a terminal will respond to the
DMDISPLAY display with DMRESP. DMRESP responses must be sent in the
same sequential order as the DMDISPLAY commands they are responses to:
the terminal may not re-order responses.
No provision is made for reliable delivery. On unreliable links
(example: 3-wire RS232), the DMDISPLAY and DMRESP command/response
sequence may get out of order.
The format of DMRESP is:
* Pe - a non-negative integer error code.
* The {data} is a set of key-value pairs (each pair separated by
semicolon (';')).
* A key can be any alpha-numeric ASCII string ('0' - '9', 'A' - 'Z',
'a' - 'z').
* A value is any printable ASCII string not containing whitespace,
colon, or semicolon ('!' - '9', '<' - '~').
The Pe error codes are defined as:
| Value | Meaning | {data} containts |
|-------|------------------------------------|--------------------------|
| 0 | No error occurred, i.e. success | nothing |
| 1 | Unsupported "type" | "type" value that was incorrect |

| 4 | Insufficient memory | nothing |
| 5 | Other error - no media displayed | nothing |
| 6 | Other - media displayed | nothing |
| 7 | Conflicting keys - no media displayed | nothing |
Additional Pe error codes may be returned; any Pe value except 0, 3,
and 6 must mean that the media was not displayed, and the cursor was
not moved.
If both "type" and "url" are set, no media is diaplyed, the cursor is
not moved, and the DMRESP error code is 7.

Non-text data (multimedia) can be sent to the terminal for later
display in a rectangular (single-layer) region of text Cells.
Multimedia data is transmitted to the terminal using the CMCACHE
command described below, and displayed on screen using the CMDISPLAY
command. A single CMCACHE command can support many CMDISPLAY
commands.
Upon display, setting a Cell to multimedia is a destructive operation:
the Cell's original text is lost. Multimedia pixels will not overlap
rendered text in the same Cell. To achieve pixels overlaid on text,
the layers feature can be used.
Setting any part of a multi-Cell Tile to multimedia also "breaks up"
the Tile into a range of single Cells. In other words, multimedia can

for display at the current cursor position.
2. The application can specify a source for the multimedia and the

cursor position.
Pixel data that has scrolled off the displayed screen and into the
scrollback buffer is required to be persistent even if the cache entry
containing that image data has been evicted by the terminal or removed
by the application.
