SMPTE RP 215 – Encoding Film Transfer Information into Vertical Ancillary Data for SMPTE 292M Bit-Serial Interface

This practice specifies a method of encoding video tape time code, film edge numbers, production time code, and other production data into the vertical ancillary data space of a bit-serial high-definition component television signal conforming with SMPTE 292M. This practice is intended for use in post-production as a means of conveying the essential elements that define the film-to-tape transfer. Normally this information is not intended for inclusion in the released program. Despite the reference to SMPTE 292M, nothing in this specification precludes its use in a parallel digital interface for component digital HDTV signals.
