SMPTE 360M Approved
The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) has approved the first standard to define a media-exchange format for disk-based products such as servers and non-linear editors. Called SMPTE 360M, the new standard is based on a file format developed by engineers at the Grass Valley Group to facilitate industry-wide interoperability with the company's Profile video server and other devices. SMPTE 360M has already been implemented over a wide variety of transport layers and tested in hundreds of installations with multiple manufacturers' gear.
