...nal definition of what the format does, but it is a start. Please do send any definition suggestions or thoughts to the email list so that we all may better understand what will be required by the format. Regarding the poor naming for my proposal: I just though up a name for the XML format; and MDMF was the best I could come up with at 5am. I think no one will oppose changing the name to my new suggestion (right below). Though someone might be better at naming stuff. M3F, or the Multimedia Metadata Format. Thoughts?

So wiki discussion on the new metadata format is ongoing. I'd like to move some things about a bit. MDMF is a discussion of the metadata XML format itself, Metadata gives some background an overview and a few old sample cases. I'm not sure how many people read the wiki talk page so I thought I'd ask here if there were any objections before doing it. What would most likely happen is: Metadata...

...a, why doesn't my Caller ID work?* /Yes, there is a country where things are more complicated than the UK. Most people think that Canada uses Bellcore, just like the USA. It does - almost. For some reason, the former Stentor member companies use a non-standard implementation of MDMF. Bellcore uses DN (Directory Number), usually the 10 digit number that includes the area code found in the phone book. Stentor uses DDN (Dialable Directory Number), a variable length number that is the number that must be dialed to call the other person back (ie local calls don&...

...th a great help from Richard Alexander (thanks Richard!) I have now a functional CallerID on my X100P. This is what I have done: - update to the latest CVS (as today at 5:00pm GMT) - modify the callerid.c file in the asterisk source like that. original : /* MDMF */ /* Go through each element and process */ for (x=0;x< cid->pos;) { switch(cid->rawdata[x++]) { case 1:...

Hi again Ivo and the Xiph ogg-dev emailing list, This email is meant to present two blockers for continued development of the XML based Multimedia Metadata Format (M3F) (MDMF page in the wiki). This format is intended to replace comments as a way of including descriptions of metadata contained in the Ogg container format. For instance title, production year, actors, producers, and so on for movies; and artist, musicians, labels, and so on for audio. As well as desc...

Hi ogg-dev list, I have improved the format formally known as Media Description and Metadata (MDMF) for the Ogg Container Format. Please have a look at the M3F page in the wiki http://wiki.xiph.org/M3F The format have been simplified and designed primarily with audio and movie recordings in mind. The old version focused on providing separate tools for each media type, were the new version tr...

Hi ogg-dev list, After discussing the [lack of] metadata standards on the irc://irc.freenode.net/#Vorbis channel yesterday I figured I had to contribute to this process. Attached is a sample XML formatted metadata sheet describing a song; and shows off other media type elements as well. How this is to be embedded in the OGG container is not my field. I have only spent a couple of hours

...on loose coupling might be a good way forward. As an example, Ogg Skeleton and CMML were designed (after some trial and error) to be independent, ie. any Ogg stream can happily include only one or both depending on need, and without any expectation of overriding VorbisComment. New formats such as MDMF which fill a given need can be designed to usefully work alongside these existing mechanisms, and the scope of the Metadata wilki page should be to clarify the overall design. cheers, Conrad.

...mments.) The draw back here is that it wold require hardware and software players to support XML parsing. However the gain is much grater when it comes to how rich the descriptions can be. See random thoughts and idea for more work on: (See VoribsComment page too.) http://wiki.xiph.org/index.php/MDMF * The third option is to try and stuff in extensions to existing XML based and other formats in Ogg containers. Though very little interest/ideas have come up on this end. -- Daniel Aleksandersen
