Re: RE : RE : Recapitulation of ma:format vs. ma:compression.

Hi

OK, so it looks as though we are converging.  How about this text?

compression

(attName="compression", attValue="URI#Name")

The compression type used. For container files (e.g., QuickTime, AVI), the compression is not defined by the format, as a container file can have several tracks that each use different encodings. In such a case, several compression instances SHOULD be used. Thus, querying the compression property of the track media fragments will return different values for each track fragment.   The indicator is a pair of values, separated by a hash sign ("#"). The first is a URI that identifies the naming convention used for the second parameter, which is a string name from that convention.  A URL is preferred for the URI, and if it is used, it (a) should contain a date in the form mmyyyy, indicating that the owner of the domain in the URL agreed to its use as a label around that date and (b) should be de-referencable, yielding an informative resource about the naming convention.

Note that for some container files, the format parameter can also carry an extended MIME type to document this; see [RFC 4281] for one such instance.

Examples:
   compression="urn:example-org:codingnames2010#ITU-H264"
   compression="http://example.net/012011/standards/codecs.htm#G711"
where ITU-H264 and G711 are defined by example.org (who also defined a URN to identify their naming conventions), and by example.net (who use a URL to identify theirs).

Glad your travels were good.
