A Time Code User-Bit Hierarchy for Multidisciplinary Applications
In response to demands from various sectors of the broadcast industry, an SMPTE draft standard for time code user-bit coding has been submitted to the Working Group on Time and Control Codes (V16.25). This outlines a coding format in which user-bit applications from all parts of the industry would operate as application-specific subsets of an overall user-bit hierarchy. This article outlines some of the potential user-bit applications that would be made possible by the adoption of this hierarchy. It describes the structure of the coding scheme and addresses some of the potential attributes it would offer to both users and manufacturers.
