    © 2019 Jimi Jones SO MANY STANDARDS, SO LITTLE TIME: A HISTORY AND ANALYSIS OF FOUR DIGITAL VIDEO STANDARDS BY JIMI JONES DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Library and Information Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2019 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Jerome McDonough, Chair Associate Professor Lori Kendall Assistant Professor Peter Darch Professor Howard Besser, New York University ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on standards for digital video - the social aspects of their design and the sociotechnical forces that drive their development and adoption. This work is a history and analysis of how the MXF, JPEG 2000, FFV1 and Matroska standards have been adopted and/or adapted by libraries and archives of different sizes. Well-funded institutions often have the resources to develop tailor-made specifications for the digitization of their analog video objects. Digital video standards and specifications of this kind are often derived from the needs of the cinema production and television broadcast realms in the United States and may be unsuitable for smaller memory institutions that are resource-poor and/or lack staff with the knowledge to implement these technologies. This research seeks to provide insight into how moving image preservation professionals work with - and sometimes against - broadcast and film production industries in order to produce and/or implement standards governing video formats and encodings. This dissertation describes the transition of four digital video standards from niches to widespread use in libraries and archives. It also examines the effects these standards produce on cultural heritage video preservation by interviewing people who implement the standards as well as people who develop them.

  • Recommended File Formats for Long-Term Archiving and for Web Dissemination in Phaidra
    Recommended file formats for long-term archiving and for web dissemination in Phaidra Edited by Gianluca Drago May 2019 License: https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ Premise This document is intended to provide an overview of the file formats to be used depending on two possible destinations of the digital document: long-term archiving uploading to Phaidra and subsequent web dissemination When the document uploaded to Phaidra is also the only saved file, the two destinations end up coinciding, but in general one will probably want to produce two different files, in two different formats, so as to meet the differences in requirements and use in the final destinations. In the following tables, the recommendations for long-term archiving are distinct from those for dissemination in Phaidra. There are no absolute criteria for choosing the file format. The choice is always dependent on different evaluations that the person who is carrying out the archiving will have to make on a case by case basis and will often result in a compromise between the best achievable quality and the limits imposed by the costs of production, processing and storage of files, as well as, for the preceding, by the opportunity of a conversion to a new format. 1 This choice is particularly significant from the perspective of long-term archiving, for which a quality that respects the authenticity and integrity of the original document and a format that guarantees long-term access to data are desirable. This document should be seen more as an aid to the reasoned choice of the person carrying out the archiving than as a list of guidelines to be followed to the letter.

Pragmatic Audiovisual Preservation Foreword The Digital Preservation Coalition (DPC) is an advocate and catalyst for digital preservation, ensuring our members can deliver resilient long-term access to digital content and services. It is a not-for- profit membership organization whose primary objective is to raise awareness of the importance of the preservation of digital material and the attendant strategic, cultural and technological issues. It supports its members through knowledge exchange, capacity building, assurance, advocacy and partnership. The DPC’s vision is to make our digital memory accessible tomorrow. The DPC Technology Watch Reports identify, delineate, monitor and address topics that have a major bearing on ensuring our collected digital memory will be for the future. They provide an advanced introduction in order to support those charged with ensuring a robust digital memory, and they are of general interest to a wide and international audience with interests in computing, information management, collections management and technology. The reports are commissioned after consultation among DPC members about shared priorities and challenges; they are commissioned from experts; and they are thoroughly scrutinized by peers before being released.

Overview There is no consensus in the media preservation community on best practice for encoding and wrapping video preservation master files. Institutions engaged in long- term video preservation typically choose from three paths, each of which are currently seen as viable for this purpose: 10-bit, uncompressed, v210 codec, usually with a QuickTime wrapper JPEG 2000, mathematically lossless profile, usually with an MXF wrapper FFV1, a mathematically lossless format, with an AVI or Matroska wrapper No single path can be said to be widely adopted, in part because there are relatively few institutions engaged in digitizing video for long-term preservation, especially at scale. It appears as of this writing that institutions are roughly evenly divided between the three paths listed above.

  • JPEG 2000 and FFV1
    Campbell1 Savannah Campbell December 16, 2016 Digital Preservation Nicole Martin The Great Video Codec Debate: JPEG 2000 and FFV1 “I think that too much ink is being spilled over the issue of JPEG 2000 vs FFV1” – George Blood1 As analog video formats become increasingly obsolete and magnetic media degrades over time, video tapes will need to undergo digitization so that their content can be preserved. Through this process, the images and sounds encapsulated in the tape’s magnetic particles will be transformed into a series of 0s and 1s: a representation of the video stream that a computer can read and play back. When a cultural heritage institution decides to digitize its video collection for preservation purposes, it becomes necessary for the institution to consider which format should be used for the resulting files. While an uncompressed format would capture all of the data in the video as is, uncompressed encoding results in large files that rapidly fill precious storage space on hard drives and servers. On the other hand, lossy compressed formats like Apple ProRes make digital video files easy to work with in production environments due to their efficient encoding and smaller file sizes, but they compress the image irreversibly—a loss of information that conflicts with the goal of preserving the original content as it was. There is another video codec option for audiovisual archivists: mathematically lossless. With lossless video codecs, the resulting files are still compressed, but in a way that preserves all of the 1 George Blood. Personal interview by Savannah Campbell. 28 Nov. 2016.
