NMOS Formats
This Formats parameter register contains values that may be used to identify a data format, used in the format property of the source and flow resources defined in the AMWA IS-04 NMOS Discovery and Registration Specification.
Criteria
- Values used for the
formatproperty are defined only by revisions of AMWA IS-04 itself. - Each entry MUST define a unique format name (which is a URN).
- Each entry MUST have a short description.
- Each entry MUST identify any AMWA Specifications and versions from which it is valid.
- Additions and updates to this parameter register are to be submitted via a Pull Request (PR) according to the General Procedures and Criteria.
Query API clients MUST be tolerant to the presence of formats not yet defined here which may be added in later API versions.
Note: AMWA IS-04 specifies general requirements for the construction and use of URNs in NMOS specifications.
