A. LOS is written so that will a none technical individual could easily read the particular format (with basic English).
This metadata file can contain a large amount of "tags" yet its to the software/hardware programmer to decide things to help because it can become very simple (title, explanation... ) or advanced (chapters, bit rate, codec.. ). Also, together with your software a person could export/import a. LOS file. Your might use various databases in your programs and the standard might help users go through one software to the particular other. Almost no predetermined tables are used yet if you write the value exactly the same way, the table of correspondence can be easily made.
The particular specification (length from the ideals to display) is really a compromise between the computer plus consumer electronic worlds.
