However, it may be appropriate to offer a few words at this time. BWF Audio Files. There are many competent file formats that can be used to store audio data. When deciding on a standard recently, the EBU (the European Broadcast Union) adapted a simple and widely available file format. The EBU Broadcast Wave Format (BWF) comprises a conventional RIFF Wave file with an additional header chunk in each file to carry a set of source identification and timecode information. These extra parameters provide the hooks necessary to pass sound recording through the many stages of complex production and post production jobs without overburdening simpler applications. Importantly, 'timecode' information is incremented at audio sample rate to give a very high resolution time reference that is independent of, but which can be used with, any conventional timecode or film/TV picture frame rate. This promises smoother interchange both internationally and cross-media. AES When the AES Standards Working Group on Audio File Exchange also considered the requirements of a sound file to form part of a wider - and scaleable - interchange scheme, a similar set of features was required. The AES Working Group is expected to adopt and standardise the EBU BWF audio file format. The AES standard will use these audio files both standalone and within two types of Project Structure (organisational structures that will facilitate edited material to be passed from one piece of equipment to another). A Simple Project Structure will comprise a fairly conventional Edit Decision List (EDL). The Object Oriented Project Structure will be capable of conveying more processing information; an audio-specific subset of OMF is proposed for this role. Accordingly, I am happy that the OMF format will be able to use EBU BWF files. This provides for a degree of synergy between different applications and stages of production that I think will be beneficial to the industry at large. Detailed information on the BWF is available from the EBU web site at: http://www.ebu.ch//pmc_bwf.html Sample files are available from Swedish Radio at: http://www.sr.se/rd/bwf/ I wish you all a great time in the (comparatively) warm South. Mark Yonge, Chair, AES SC-06-01 Standards Working Group: Audio File Transfer and Exchange Solid State Logic Ltd marky@solid-state-logic.com mark@yonge.demon.co.uk Phone: (44) 1865 842300 Fax (44) 1865 379100 Dear Ed, This relates to our discussions before the holiday. It is apparent that, even with an audio-only subset of the OMF scheme, the AES group is having some difficulty discussing the subject with the experience and authority necessary for its practical implementation as a general interchange standard. To keep this topic moving forwards, I wonder if it would be possible to form a number of experienced people, perhaps from within the OMF Developers group,into an AES Task Group. The role of this Task Group would be to provide advice to the SC-06-01 AES Working Group on practical matters related to the implementation of OMF in audio systems. You have very kindly offered to explore the possibility. Could I ask you to consider this during the OMF Developers Conference next week and let me know you thoughts as soon as possible?

As a B-member, we can participate in the working groups, but without an official vote. I have listed the programs of the two working groups that are related to audio. The WG10 group is being chaired by Steve Sohma, one of our vice-chairs and a member of our Steering Committee. He has scheduled the next meeting of WG10 for 1998-02-05 14:00 at Pioneer headquarters in Tokyo. I will be preparing the full Forum prospectus for downloading from our FTP site. Thus far, we have not received machine-readable copy, so it will take time. Rather than delay any more, I have included only the programs of the two groups in this memo. We need to consider how to participate in the proceedings. Dan Queen ********************************************** WG4 SCOPE 1. General Description To create DVD-Audio application format, which meets the requirements of the next-generation high-quality audio for the music industry and the consumer all over the world. 2. Activity (A) Format Maintenance& New Format Creation No activity until Ver 1.0 Audio Format is established. (B)Condition/Requirements Technical proposal from any new comer are highly appreciated, but they shall be based in the current draft which has been created through collaboration between ISC and WG-4.

You have addressed it to Mr Verrier at Digigram verrier@digigram.com), who have forwarded it to me. Digigram is very much interested in some participation with regards to the DVD standards proceedings, and definitely we would appreciate to be informed about the progress. It will be very difficult to arrange my schedule on such a short notice ( for the Tokyo meeting), however if you would be so kind and let me know the schedules for the next meetings, I would do my best to attend at least some of them. In the mean time please be so kind and replace Mr Verriers name and email address with mine as he is now involved in another project. If it is possible, please add Mr Patrick Tardy ( tardy@digigram.com) - Market Research to the emailing list.
