SMPTE RP 210v13:2012

Abtract:

The data element dictionary defines data elements, including their names, descriptions and identifiers, for association with essence or other metadata. A full explanation is contained in SMPTE ST 335. — The metadata dictionary structure defined in SMPTE ST 335 covers the use of metadata for all types of essence (video, audio, and data in their various forms). The standard specifies that any application must conform both to: — (a) the definitions and formats in SMPTE ST 335; and — (b) the data element dictionary. — This register and the register structure defining document (SMPTE ST 335) must be used together as a pair — neither must be used in isolation. — This recommended practice contains a representation of the SMPTE Data Element Dictionary in the form of an Excel spreadsheet.

Purpose:

This document has an associated Data Supplement, accessible for download from the “Multimedia” tab when the user has full-text access rights. SMPTE Data Supplements contain files intended for use with the SMPTE Engineering Document (Standard, Recommended Practice, or Engineering Guideline) with the corresponding filename and publication date. Use of these files without consulting the corresponding SMPTE Engineering Document is NOT supported. Interoperability will generally require adherence to additional guidelines and constraints specified in the corresponding prose document.
