  • 'Grand Theft Archive': a Quantitative Analysis of the State of Computer
    Gooding, P. and Terras, M. (2008) "„Grand Theft Archive‟: a quantitative analysis of the current state of computer game preservation". The International Journal of Digital Curation. Issue 2, Volume 3, 2008. http://www.ijdc.net/ijdc/article/view/85/90 1 ‘Grand Theft Archive’: A Quantitative Analysis of the Current State of Computer Game Preservation Paul Gooding, Librarian, BBC Sports Library, London Melissa Terras, School of Library, Archive and Information Studies, University College London November 2008 Abstract Computer games, like other digital media, are extremely vulnerable to long-term loss, yet little work has been done to preserve them. As a result we are experiencing large-scale loss of the early years of gaming history. Computer games are an important part of modern popular culture, and yet are afforded little of the respect bestowed upon established media such as books, film, television and music. We must understand the reasons for the current lack of computer game preservation in order to devise strategies for the future. Computer game history is a difficult area to work in, because it is impossible to know what has been lost already, and early records are often incomplete. This paper uses the information that is available to analyse the current status of computer game preservation, specifically in the UK. It makes a quantitative analysis of the preservation status of computer games, and finds that games are already in a vulnerable state. It proposes that work should be done to compile accurate metadata on computer games and to analyse more closely the exact scale of data loss, while suggesting strategies to overcome the barriers that currently exist.

  • Vc-300Hd-Introduction.Pdf
    Now that digital broadcasting service areas are expanding, and with the appearance of high-definition content on Blu-ray and HD DVD media, there is a strong demand for high definition content production. Until these recent developments, HD content production had been comparatively simple, with the source of input being mainly limited to HD camera recordings. With television shifting to high definition and the rapid spread of high-definition video cameras for consumer use, location shooting in consumer HDV format with inexpensive cameras is becoming more popular. Meanwhile the transition to a tapeless era for broadcasting is underway. Overall, an extremely complex situation has arisen. If this had been a complete shift towards digital data in files handled by codecs, IP and the world of networking, this may not have presented so many challenges. In reality, we cannot ignore the world of real-time transmissions in which data streams of various formats are distributed via cable connection. When viewed as, “Hi-Def”, the various HD formats probably look the same to many. In reality, however, video from different sources are likely to have different resolutions, bit rates, and frame rates. Moreover, when these are transmitted, it may be physically impossible to access files with different formats. It is getting so that you can’t easily manage simple tasks like dubbing or monitoring. What is needed for this world of many formats is a multi-format converter that can convert from many formats to any other form. While it is possible to get devices that can specifically convert between just about any of the existing formats, for example between component and SDI, they are not cost effective or bi-directional.
