11. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 11 Description Add the qualifier “genre” with a recommended list of values from ViDe: Examples from List Art work (video art); Classroom lecture; Diagnostic or surgical procedure; Instrument or sensor reading; Newscast; Panel discussion; Videoconference session … XML Example: videoconference session

12. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 12 Format – The physical or digital manifestation of the resource. DCMI Qualifiers:  FormatExtent  FormatMedium

13. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 13 FormatExtent ViDe recommends the following subelements, separated by “semi-colon space”:  duration (hours, minutes, seconds);  frames per second (KB or MB);  data rate (Kbps or Mbps);  sound or silent;  color or b&w;  file size (KB, MB or GB)

14. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting g 14 Start and stop times may be included for excerpts from sequential media XML Examples: 1 min., 47 sec.; 30 fps; 200 Kbps; sound; b&w; 296 MB 00:24:03;1 00:25:50;7

15. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 15 FormatMedium: ViDe Recommended Extensions to MIME type: application/vnd.quicktimeVR application/vnd.flash video/mpeg1 video/mpeg2 video/mpeg4 XML Example: video/mpeg1

16. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 16 Relation: Related resources. DCMI recommends a unique identifier. ViDe is using the Relation field to bring together different instantiations of resource:  Analog original (e.g. VHS tape)  Preservation Format (e.g. Beta-SP or DigiBeta)  Digital Master (e.g. uncompressed AVI)  Use copy (e.g. MPEG1, MPEG4, RealVideo file, etc.

17. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 17 ViDe recommends the following qualifiers, which are formatted like the original Dublin Core elements. All qualifiers are optional except Relation.Identifier, which must be included if the Relation element is used: RelationTitle RelationIdentifier RelationFormatMedium RelationFormatExtent

18. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 18 Type – nature or genre of the content of the resource. DCMI currently recommends “image” be used for video as part of their recommended list of types. ViDe proposes adding : animation video to the list.

26. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 26 Collaborative Projects  Develop MPEG-7Application Profile for Descriptive Metadata using Creation & Production, Media, and Usage DSs. Reference: Hunter, Jane"A Proposal for the Integration of Dublin Core and MPEG-7", SO/IEC JTC1/SC29/WG11 M6500, 54th MPEG Meeting, La Baule, October 2000 http://archive.dstc.edu.au/RDU/staff/jane-hunter/m6500.zip http://archive.dstc.edu.au/RDU/staff/jane-hunter/m6500.zip  Develop a Digital Video Portal supporting Dublin Core and MPEG-7 descriptive metadata – ideally as input and output formats. Would support data mining via the Open Archives Initiative Protocol. Also would be used to develop and test directory-based Digital Rights Management on distributed video assets. Learning and research tool for video access methodologies.

27. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 27  Use Segment DS and SegmentDecomposition DS to create interoperable component videos and “bookmarks” from video files Collaborative Projects Man in a funny hat. Jones, Tommy. 00:27:13;7 Man with a funny moustache. Jones, Tommy. 00:27:13;7 Disclaimer: MPEG-7 encoding is for illustration only and may not represent accurate encoding according to the schema

28. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 28 Collaborative Projects  Use SequentialSummary DS and HighlightSegment DS to create a keyframe summary or highlights component video

29. DIGITAL VIDEO ACCESS STRATEGIES Grace Agnew 2001-10-04 Virtual Members Meeting 29 Collaborative Projects  Use the Collection DS to concatenate materials “on the fly” into a collection, e.g. pulling images, video, audio and text together to create a term paper. Scenario: A student is doing a paper on WWII and wants to include photographs of the war in Europe as well as video footage from a documentary. Fair use allows him via a DRM implementation to create a 5 second component video, which he creates as a named segment and concatenates into a collection using a menu-driven form.
