Section 2.6 of RFC 2756 shows the HEADER as:
+0 (MSB) +1 (LSB)
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
0: | LENGTH |
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
2: | LENGTH |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
2: | MAJOR | MINOR |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
The repeated "2:" on the left side is confusing. Should LENGTH be
16- or 32-bits?
Since we expect HTCP to be used over UDP, and UDP messages cannot be larger than 2^16, we see no reason that HTCP messages should exceed that limit. Therefore, the LENGTH field should be 16-bits and the HEADER diagram should be:
+0 (MSB) +1 (LSB)
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
0: | LENGTH |
+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+
2: | MAJOR | MINOR |
