# INFO # # The AVI file format supports so-called tomb-stone data. It can be # used to write annotations into the AVI file. # # You can use this file as the argument to the transcode option # --avi_comments. When the file is read, empty lines and lines # starting with '#' are ignored. # The syntax is: "TAGSTRING". The order of the tags does not # matter. If a tag has no string following it, it is ignored. That # means, you can use this file as input and only fill out the fields # you want. # # A very simple example is: # ----------------snip---------------- # INAM My 1st Birthday # ISBJ My first steps! # IART My proud family # ----------------snip---------------- # # Keep in mind that there is no endless space in the AVI header, # most likely its around 1000 bytes. # INAM - Stores the title of the subject of the file, such as # "Seattle from Above." INAM # ISBJ - Describes the contents of the file, such as # "Aerial view of Seattle." ISBJ # Lists the artist of the original subject of the file; # for example, "Michaelangelo." IART # Records the copyright information for the file; for example, # "Copyright Encyclopedia International 1991." If there are multiple # copyrights, separate them by semicolon followed by a space. ICOP # Lists the name of the person or organization that commissioned # the subject of the file; for example "Pope Julian II." ICMS # Provides general comments about the file or the subject # of the file. If the comment is several sentences long, end each # sentence with a period. Do not include new-line characters. ICMT # Indicates where the subject of the file is archived IARL # Creation date. Specifies the date the subject of the file was created. List # dates in year-month-day format, padding one-digit months and days with # a zero on the left; for example, "1553-05-03" for May 3, 1553. ICRD # Describes whether an image has been cropped and, if so, how it # was cropped; for example, "lower-right corner." ICRP # Specifies the size of the original subject of the file; for # example, "8.5 in h, 11 in w." IDIM # Stores dots per inch setting of the digitizer used to # produce the file, such as "300." IDPI # Stores the of the engineer who worked on the file. If there are # multiple engineers, separate the names by a semicolon and a blank; # for example, "Smith, John; Adams, Joe." IENG # Describes the original work, such as "landscape,", "portrait," # "still liefe," etc. IGNR # Provides a list of keywords that refer to the file or subject of the # file. Separate multiple keywords with a semicolon and a blank; # for example, "Seattle, aerial view; scenery." IKEY # ILGT - Describes the changes in the lightness settings on the digitizer # required to produce the file. Note that the format of this information # depends on the hardware used. ILGT # IMED - Decribes the original subject of the file, such as # "computer image," "drawing," "lithograph," and so on. IMED # IPLT - Specifies the number of colors requested when digitizing # an image, such as "256." IPLT # IPRD - Specifies the name of title the file was originally intended # for, such as "Encyclopedia of Pacific Northwest Geography." IPRD # ISHP - Identifies the change in sharpness for the digitizer # required to produce the file (the format depends on the hardware used). ISHP # ISRC - Identifies the name of the person or organization who # suplied the original subject of the file; for example, "Try Research." ISRC # ISRF - Identifies the original form of the material that was digitized, # such as "slide," "paper," "map," and so on. This is not necessarily # the same as IMED ISRF # ITCH - Identifies the technician who digitized the subject file; # for example, "Smith, John." ITCH
