Subject: New FADGI Publication: Embedding Metadata in DPX File Headers

Please excuse possible duplication of this message across multiple listservs.

The FADGI Audio-Visual Working Group is pleased to announce the publication of an updated version of Guidelines for Embedded Metadata within DPX File Headers for Digitized Motion Picture Film.

The guidelines outline FADGI implementations of the SMPTE ST 268 Core fields as well as other elements Strongly Recommended, Recommended or Optional for FADGI use. The 2017 Working Group approved version includes significant revisions received during the public comment period for the 2016 draft version. Updates include a justification about the rationale for embedded metadata and explanations of issues with date/time formatting and data overruns and more. The development of an open source tool to batch embed metadata according to the FADGI guidelines is planned. Comments are always welcome.

Best wishes - Kate
