File Layout
Files must be exact duration; TVC content only. No pre or post roll such as clock/slate, bars, black, hold, freeze or audio tone is required.
Video Levels
Levels must be in accordance with ITU BT.709 for HD content, and EBU R103-2000 recommendations:
Luma = Level 16-235 (not RGB 0-255 level), equivalent to 0% - 100% or
0mV - 700mV. Chroma = Level 16-240, equivalent to maximum 100% RGB.
All content should be upper and first field dominant throughout and must be free of encoding artefacts, dropout, glitches, blocking, interlace issues or excessive aliasing and considered broadcast quality throughout.
Audio Levels
The Programme Loudness Level must be normalised according to ATSC A/85 specifications: -24 LKFS (±2 LU) and -2 dBTP max.
Audio should be free of any distortion, glitches or excessive sibilance and must be in phase and in sync with the video throughout.
