Hi there,
as you may know, there are a lot of Audio:* attributes defined that
makes using mp3s in the system much nicer.
Of course, there are other file types which could benefit from such
attributes, so I would like to start a discussion on which ones we
might want to add.
For example, there already are Audio:{Rating|Length|Genre|Year}
attributes which could be helpful for other types as well.
Should we create subtypes for the different types like Image:Rating and
Video:Rating? Or should we replace the Audio: attributes in question
with Media: attributes? Or give those with a general meaning even the
META: prefix?
Other possibly helpful attributes:
{Media|Image|Video}:Size
Video:Bitrate
Video:Codec
Video:Length
META:Keywords
{META|Media}:Thumbnail
Naturally, our applications should set those attributes automatically
if possible (things like Video:Length, and Video:Size).
Opinions welcome.
Bye,
Axel.
