This page is badly outdated and is not high priority at the moment. Please don't send your suggestions on this now. We are building a database that can be easily updated and distributed. Everything below this paragraph is outdated.
I'll write a software for creating this page from a simple data-file, don't except updates before that is finished. The data-file will be freely available, so that it can be easily imported into players.
There are 1020 octets reserved for this data in main-header.
When distributing your MCF, you should put as much info as possible into it. This piece of info allows easy searches and sorting of video-files, so it should definately be used.
These are part of main header/extended info, used to make it easier for search-engines and other automated systems to identify the contents of MCF-files.
