We are considering the IEEE LOM metadata schema in relation to an archive
of multimedia learning objects and note a significant gap, especially as we
are particularly concerned with increasing the opportunities for
interoperability. I would like to be able to precisely describe various
physical properties of the multimedia items. For example Dimensions
(pixels), Colour Depth, Frame Rate, etc, etc.
Am I missing something? 4.2 Size is clearly asking for Bytes. So it looks
like I need to extend (4.8.x...). Has anyone done this before? If so have
you found a satisfactory way of extending the schema that perhaps we could
adopt?
Many thanks,
