You don't need to know:

  8.1       ISO/IEC 11172-2 compatibility
  ISO/IEC 11172-2 "constrained parameter" bitstreams shall be
  decodable by Simple, Main, SNR Scalable, Spatially Scalable and High
  profile decoders at all levels. Additionally Simple, Main, SNR
  Scalable, Spatially Scalable and High profile decoders shall be able
  to decode D-pictures-only bitstreams of ISO/IEC 11172-2 which are
  within the level constraints of the decoder.
