Not many have explicit access to this kind of data; you'd need special-purpose code to grovel around in movie files, mp4 files, avi files, ogg files, mxf files, rtsp SDP descriptions, mpeg-2 transport streams, .... well, you get the idea. That's what the W3C Media Annotations WG is digging into FAICT. So, hopefully their reference implementations will help expose such metadata better. Rgards, Silvia.
