Looking a the table it states that ttm:actor is derived from mpeg7:Creator and ttm:agent from mpeg7:Agent. mpeg7:Agent is quite generic and used in different contexts. If I understand this correctly, ttm:actor[@type='character'] maps to mpeg7:Creator/Character, and ttm:actor[@type!='character'] maps to mpeg7:Creator/Agent. In addition we know that if an Agent is referenced by a Character, mpeg7:Creator/Role is "actor". > > What was the reason for not including an attribute/element for specifying other roles than actor, e.g. director, composer, ... ? Werner, there was no requirement to have an element to indicate composer, director, etc, and that can be handled by private metadata. Thus, we didn't add them in the specification. Philippe
