Would it be possible to have this be: if (bcast flag present in global header && bytes remaining in syncpoint) This way files not utilizing the broadcast functionality would not be forced to waste an extra byte per syncpoint in the future when there might be other new fields in the syncpoint that they want to use. Also it's not clear that just coding a 0 for this field would even be valid, according to the description you wrote for buffer_fullness. Having a "broadcast" flag (or buffer-controlled or whatever you like to call it) in the header to indicate that the field is present and to be used solves both problems at once. Rich
