If an organization has people whose focus is A/V production, then a little help from them could go a long way. And they probably also wince at some of the stuff that people bring to us, and might like the opportunity to help spiff it up.
For those who don't have a media department or can't call on it, maybe the best DSpace can do is some ancillary scripts that package the operations required to render such bitstreams in formats best suited to wide use and long-term preservation. I don't think we want it to be automatic. Some of us have a desire to archive both (say) the raw MPEG-2 data for the sake of never losing anything, and a properly edited, well-engineered, scaled and compressed version for daily use. -- Mark H. Wood, Lead System Programmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Typically when a software vendor says that a product is "intuitive" he means the exact opposite.
