[Avid-L2] Re: SR tapes with the Telefile label affixed to spine - New???

 

So it's like an id barcode like chip that gets scanned for metadata. Is this for automated playback systems or general vault type tape tracking or both. Could I use one of these labels on my dog? Instead of a trip to the vet for an ID chip just find an unused label and voila no lost dog. Of course this will change when I switch to file based canines. ;-)
