For instance, we could define: > MetadataName=“timecode.s314m” > where MetadataBinary is set to a binary value as defined by SMPTE ST 314M-2005 Sec 4.4.2.2.1 "Time code pack (TC)”. I should clarify: Storing the timecode value as a _single_ number makes processing a lot easier. For example when you export a sub-range of your archived video file and have to shift timecode offset in the output file. Or when you change the video frame-rate for some reason. Both, the "01:23:45;12" timecode string and its binary representation are using some display-oriented format with mixed timebases (hours/minutes/seconds use a fixed timebase, framecount uses another timebase depending on the media). In our ingest system we use a separate XML file to store VITC/LTC values and first tried to store the SMPTE TC string but then switched to storing a microseconds number together with some hint for presentation "these values shall be rendered at 29.97 fps with drop-frame counting". > In other thoughts on this suggestion, I think it could make it difficult to easily understand if a file has a particular type of side data. For instance if only a few Clusters somewhere in the Segment contain a certain type of side data, it would require parsing every Cluster to know what types of side data are available. This uncertainly wouldn’t be the same issue if the side data was itself a Track. I would agree here. Best regards, Tobias
