Description

embARC (Metadata Embedded for Archival Content)is a tool for metadata embedding and validation in DPX files. It currently supports checking against FADGI’s Guidelines for Embedded Metadata within DPX File Headers for Digitized Motion Picture Film as well as required SMPTE 268 metadata rules. embARC enables users to audit and correct internal metadata of both individual files or an entire DPX sequence while not impacting the image data. embARC is created and maintained by FADGI (Federal Agencies Digital Guidelines Initiative), in conjunction with AVP and PortalMedia.

The tool wraps FFmpeg, CRC32C and uses Nitrite. It is developed in JAVA.
