About UMID ownership information
COUNTRY (country code)
Enter an abbreviated alphanumeric string (4-byte
alphanumeric strings) according to the values defined in
ISO 3166-1.
There are about 240 country codes.
Find your own country code on the following home page.
Refer to ISO-3166-1:
http://www.evertype.com/standards/iso3166/iso3166-1-
en.html
When the country code is less than 4 bytes, the active part
of the code will occupy the first part of the 4-bytes and the
remainder must be filled with the space character (20h).
Example: In the case of Japan
For Japan, if the country code is JP, it is 2 bytes, if JPN, it
is 3 bytes.
Thus, enter the following:
JP_ _
or
JPN _
where _ represents a space.
ORGANIZATION (organization code)
Enter an abbreviated 4-byte alphanumeric string for the
organization code.
Notes
• Organization codes must be acquired by applying to the
SMPTE registration office.
When no organization code has been acquired, it is
forbidden to enter an arbitrary string. As a rule, the code
“00” must be entered. Freelance operators who do not
belong to an origination should enter “
~
.”
• There are no problems in recording or playing back
audio-video signals, if ORGANIZATION is not set.
USER (user code)
Enter the 4-byte alphanumeric strings for user
identification.
The user code is registered with each organization locally.
It is usually not centrally registered.
When the country code is less than 4 bytes, enter the
country code from the beginning of the 4 bytes and enter
the space character (20h) in the remaining strings.
This user code is determined by the organization. The
methods used depend on the organization.
Note
User code cannot be entered when no organization code
has been entered.
