Re: [Avid-L2] Re: New Digital Deliveries

From AMWA page (http://www.amwa.tv/projects/AS-11.shtml):

AS-11 is a vendor-neutral subset of the MXF file format to use for delivery
of finished programming from program producers and distributors to
broadcast stations. AS-11 Files are intended to be complete and ready for
playout. AS-11 support playout while the file transfer is in progress, a
workflow is referred to as "late delivery". It is preferable for AS-11
files to be used by playout servers directly without rewrapping of the MXF
data structures. The content may be delivered at the ultimate bit-rate,
picture format and aspect ratio, or it may be transcoded at the broadcast
station to the required bit-rates and formats.

Similar transcoding may be applied to audio and captions; additionally,
specific audio and caption tracks may be selected for different broadcast
channels.

The content may be pre-packaged for broadcast without further splicing or
it may be segmented for ease of insertion or replacement of interstitials.

AS-11 supports SD video encoded as D-10, 50Mbit/s, and HD as AVC-Intra
Class 100. Audio can be PCM, AC-3 or Dolby E.
