xxxx. MPEG MP-AF
* change type from string to ebucore:elementType (see below) for
compoundName, givenName, etc. to allow using different character sets.
* create ebucore:elementType and extend dc:elementType with 'charset'
attribute to specify the character set used for the string and 'encoding' to specify if
the string has been encoded using e.g. base64Bynary encoding and 'transcription' to
provide an alternative version indicating the pronounciation of complex characters (e.g.
furigana or rômaji for kanjis).
xxxx. Memoriav
* add 'period' to dateGroup to allow expressing a period in free text. This
is done as coverage/temporal/periodOfTime can often not be used in all contexts of
dateGroup
The root element of EBUCore.
The body of EBUCore's descriptive metadata. coreMetadata is used
to describe a so-called "root" item. The same coreMetadata is also used to
describe elements / "parts" of this item (see the "part" element).
Identifies the metadata provider, e.g. the contributing archive.
The organisation Id or name provide the archive ID or name required for e.g.
OAI metadata harvesting operation.
The name of the schema for e.g. OAI management.
The version of the schema for e.g. OAI management.
The date of edition of the current metadata instance for e.g. OAI
management
The time of edition of the current metadata instance for e.g. OAI
management
The unique Identifier of the metadata instance for e.g. OAI
management
A location at which the document containing the metadata instance
can be found
An attribute to specify the dominant language used to express
metadata information in the document, which can be superceded each time an
language attribute or element is available a different levels of description
granularity
The document containing all the core descriptive information regarding
the resource
A Title is the ‘main’ name given to a resource e.g. a media item,
a media object, or a sequence as specified by the associated title type. It
corresponds for a series to the series title, for a programme to the
programme title, for an item to the item title, etc. Titles are recorded as
they appear. The Title is the name by which a resource is formally known and
that everyone should use to refer to or search for that particular resource.
The Title may be provided in several languages. If present, the date
attributes indicate when the Title was attributed, used and/or deprecated.
dc:title is used to provide the main title by which the resource
is known. The title can be provided in different languages. The language in
which the title is provided can be provided using dc:elementType’s lang
attribute.
An Alternative Title is the name other than the ‘main’ Title
given to a resource. The type of title is defined by the typeGroup of
attributes. The status of the title is defined by the statusGroup of
attributes. Alternative Titles are recorded as they appear. An Alternative
Title may be attributed to a resource for several reasons described using
the status (e.g. working title) and type (e.g. series title) attributes. The
alternativeTitle may be provided in several languages. It is sometimes
common practice to put dates into the alternativeTitle. If present, the date
(indicating when the alternativeTitle was attributed and used or deprecated)
in the date attributes should be consistent.
dc:alternativeTitle is used to provide an alternative title by
which the resource is known. The alternative title of a particular type can
be provided in different languages. The language in which the title is
provided can be provided using dc:elementType’s lang attribute.
The descriptor creator identifies an ‘entity’ (a person, group
of persons or organisation) primarily responsible for creating the content
of the resource - behind the camera. Different roles may be considered as
representing a creator, e.g. a producer, an author, etc. Creator is a
sub-class of Contributor.
The topic covered by the intellectual content of the resource.
Typically, a subject is expressed by keywords, key phrases. Free text,
controlled vocabularies, authorities, or formal classification schemes
(codes) may be employed when selecting descriptive subject terms. Persons as
subjects are also placed here. IMPORTANT NOTE: The "genre" of the content is
defined under element “ebucore:type/ebucore:genre”
dc:subject is used to express the subject in the form of free
text optionally in different languages.
Free-form text or a narrative to report general notes, abstracts,
or summaries about the intellectual content of a resource. The information
may be in the form of a paragraph giving an individual program description,
anecdotal interpretations, or brief content reviews. The description may
also consist of outlines, lists, bullet points, edit decision lists,
indexes, or tables of content, a reference to a graphical representation of
content or even a pointer (URI, URL) to an external resource. A running
order can also be provided as a description. For a Radio or television
programme a running order can be used as description. A description can be
provided in different languages.
dc:description is used to provide the text of a description of
the resource, which can be provided in different languages.
A publisher is a person, an organisation, or a service.
Typically, the name of a Publisher should be used to indicate the entity
primarily responsible for distributing or making a resource available to
others e.g. by broadcasting, selling, leasing, renting and other modes of
distribution.
The descriptor contributor identifies a person or organisation
that has made substantial creative contributions to the content of a
resource. Refers particularly (but not only) to participation in front of
the camera. If in doubt whether an entity is a creator or contributor use
the element contributor.
Dates associated with events occurring during the life of the
resource. Typically, Date will be associated with the creation, modification
or availability of the resource.
The nature or genre of the resource. Type includes terms
describing general categories, functions, genres, or aggregation levels for
content. Recommended best practice is to select a value from a controlled
vocabulary. To describe the physical or digital manifestation of the
resource, use the FORMAT element.
The physical or digital manifestation of the resource. Use the
descriptor Format to identify the format of a particular resource as it
exists in its physical or digital form. Physical form = an actual physical
form that occupies physical space, e.g. a tape. Digital form = a digital
file residing on a server or hard drive. Format may be used to determine the
software, hardware or other equipment needed to display or operate the
resource.
A unique, unambiguous reference or identifier for a resource
within a given context. Best practice is to identify the resource (whether
analogue or digital) by means of a string or number corresponding to an
established or formal identification system if one exists. Otherwise, use an
identification method that is in use within your agency, station, production
company, office, or institution. It is also possible to enter more than one,
different but still unique, identifier for the same
resource.
Reference to the resource (s) from which the current resource is
derived in whole or in part. If no label or number is available, the title
and/or the statement of responsibility etc. of the digitized recording is
recorded here. For a digitized radio programme the production number is
normally given here. The Recommended best practice is to use a unique
identifier to identify the physical source that has been used to create the
digital resource. In the case of a digitized analogue recording, it is the
recording used for digitization which is the source. For commercial
recordings the label and number is normally given here. Example: Eurovision
feed 2007-07-16T19:20:30.45+01:00
Identifies languages and their use in the intellectual content
of the resource. Recommended best practice for the values of the Language
element is defined by RFC 5646. More contextual information can be provided
using the “note” attribute.
Recommended best practice is to reference the resource (to which
the current resource under description is related) by means of a string or
number conforming to a formal identification system. Relation is used to
show the relation in content to another resource. For example, "IsPartOf" is
used to show the relation between a part of a radio programme and the whole
programme or between a track and a record album. A resource can be
identified by its title, or an identifier (possibly a URI). The related item
has its own separate metadata record. Relation is used to provide a name, an
identification number or ID, or a locator where the related item can be
found.
Recommended best practice is to reference the resource (to which
the current resource under description is related) by means of a string or
number conforming to a formal identification system. isRelatedTo is used to
show a generic relation of a resource with another resource. For example,
"IsPartOf" is used to show the relation between a part of a radio programme
and the whole programme or between a track and a record album. A resource
can be identified by its title, or an identifier (possibly a URI). The
related item has its own separate metadata record. Relation is used to
provide a name, an identification number or ID, or a locator where the
related item can be found.

A reference to a series the current resource is a season of
A reference to a group e.g. a brand, the current resource is an
member of
A reference to members of a group
To indicate that two resources are identical.
Coverage is used to show various time and place aspects of the
subject of the content. Coverage will typically include spatial location (a
place name or geographic coordinates), temporal period (a period label,
date, or date range) or jurisdiction (such as a named administrative
entity). Recommended best practice is to select a value from a controlled
vocabulary (for example, the Thesaurus of Geographic Names) and that, where
appropriate, named places or time periods be used in preference to numeric
identifiers such as sets of coordinates or date ranges.
An all-purpose field to identify information (rights management
statement or reference to a service providing such information e.g. via a
URL) about copyright, intellectual property rights or other property rights
held in and over a resource, stating whether access is open or restricted in
some way. If dates, times, territories and availability periods are
associated with a right, they should be included. If the Rights element is
absent, no assumptions can be made about the status of these and other
rights with respect to the resource.

split data into user defined clusters. It can be used to describe different
instantiations of the same asset in different locations possibly in a different
formats with different rights. Etc.

A combination of tracks (or one track) required to
represent a channel, an object, or a group. The audioStreamFormat establishes a
relation between audioTrackFormats stored in the asset and audioChannelFormats
produced by these audioTrackFormats. Its main use is to deal with non-PCM encoded
tracks, where one or several audioTrackFormats produce several audioChannelFormats.
The audioStreamFormat allows knowing which audioChannelFormats are available on an
asset and how to effectively access to them. An audio stream can also be used to
link together several PCM audioTrackFormats.
