PitchBlue/H.264 ancillary data and timecode
The K2 Summit system system extracts captioning as defined by ATSC a/72 embedded in the video information of H.264 material during ingest. The system plays this information during H.264 playout.
Timecode for a PitchBlue import is striped timecode (continuous timecode) that starts at 00:00:00:00 as required for a PitchBlue workflow.
This functionality supports the PitchBlue workflow. However, the functionality applies to all H.264 material, not only PitchBlue material.
