Can the question be clarified?  DVD is not an aspect reflected in the GMD.  Nor 
are search limits by record type or specific format usually driven by the GMD 
but instead by the coding in the fixed field or field 007.  Both of these 
fields are still employable in MARC records conveying RDA data.

In a post-MARC scenario, the limiting functionality currently carried by the 
fixed field and field 007 coding would most likely draw directly from the 
content and carrier types, in whatever "parking place" they were recorded.

I know there was a long discussion last week about the 336, 337 and 338 fields 
for RDA and I was trying to see if my question was addressed.  My question 
is--- with the elimination of the GMD designator for videorecordings, sound 
recordings, etc., how would you limit your search if you wanted to get only 
DVDs?  In the MARC world we have this capability but I haven't been able to 
figure this out with RDA.  Any suggestions?
