another bext question again...sorry
I've read in the BWF documentation http://tech.ebu.ch/docs/tech/tech3285.pdf
"time reference low" and "time reference high" that means first sample count since midnight low word and first sample count since midnight high word. Sorry, but I don't understand this. In which case are these destinctions necessary? Thanx! Johannes |

Sorry, but I don't understand this. In which case are these destinctions necessary? Thanx! Johannes The two words together represent a 64 bit value. If your programming environment has a 64 bit data type, you combine the two, to get the sample count since the arbitrary time when timecode was set to zero. It was done this way because BWF predates common 64 bit systems. Bob Morein(310) 237-6511 What dos programming environment exactly mean? Does that mean that any application running in 64 bit like windows xp 64needs that or is it the case when a sound file exceeds the 4 Gbyte like this: http://tech.ebu.ch/docs/tech/tech3306.pdf, Thanks for your response.
