Please feel free to list questions for the initial digital video survey below. For example:
- what are the technical specifications (formats, file characteristics, etc) you use? Especially for born digital video.
- Do you have guidelines for preferred/accepted digital video formats? Would you be able to share them?
- Are you doing video reformatting in-house, through out-sourcing or a combination? If you are outsourcing some of this how did you decide which to outsource?
- Do you contract for consultation services to support your video efforts?
- Are you storing any technical metadata for video and if so, in what form/schema?
- What are your biggest challenges related to video?
- Are you delivering the video you preserve, and if so using what tools/platforms/services?
- Do you index any technical metadata and if so, which fields? (Duke)
- Do you store your preservation master files in institutionally managed storage, through a commercial service, or both? (Duke)
- What analog-to-digital interface do you use (i.e., SAMMA, BlackMagic, Kona, AJA)? (Duke)
- What tools do you use in a preservation workflow?
- What compression engine do you use to create access derivatives (i.e., Front Porch, Nero MPEG-Streamclip, Apple Compressor)? (Duke--this question may cover some of the same ground as the "Are you delivering ..." question, above.)
- Do copyright issues influence your preservation priorities? If so, how?
- How are your video preservation activities funded?
- Are you better equipped and resourced for video preservation, for video access, or are they resourced and equipped equally?
- How far back in chain of creation do you go with regular depositors of BDV?
- what practices are you using with ingest processing for BDV - normalize, keep original files, etc.
- what types of auxiliary/associated materials files keep along with original files
- are you trying to model higher level objects (1 program over 4 tapes, for example)
- what is the big roadblock for preserving video? Why is it not part of the usual preservation environment?
- what about multiple versions, raw material and associated materials that come in on one disc or drive. What do you keep? How do you make the decision? Do you keep only the final version?
