Hi,
What about mp2a / mp3a? So mp2v could exist (and not mpg2). Otoh aaca would look crazy :)
The idea was to use existing sane names when they exist to avoid pointlessly enlarging tables. Also mp2a and mp3a are NOT analogous to mp4v. mp2 does not mean mpeg-2 audio. It means mpeg-1 audio, layer 2. Similarly for mp3.
What about mpl1, mpl2 and mpl3 then? :) Also how would you store MPEG2? mpg2? mp2v?
mp4v are ES or PR packets?
PR? you mean PS? of course not PS, double layer muxing is not allowed in nut
Also I would restrict the available character set from your proposed ascii-printable to alphanumeric+space, everything else is making it more complicated. The dash (-) is the only symbol I could be convienced if too much ppl cry.
Plus is also useful, e.g. 263+, mp3+, etc. crap. :)
My proposal character set: * english alphabet - lower case only! * numbers 0-9 * space * minus sign / dash * plus sign
i agree if we need a allowed charset then the above is plenty, actually i would say 'p' is fine and + isnt really needed [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB In the past you could go to a library and read, borrow or copy any book Today you'd get arrested for mere telling someone where the library is
