6.17 Previews and standalone clips

6.17.1 Previews

Previews are communicated using the ClipDetail composite with the ClipType set to Preview.

Previews may be made available to consumers as defined in the ReleaseVisibility or TrackReleaseVisibility composites referenced from the relevant release or Track Release.

6.17.2 Standalone clips

Standalone clips may be made available in two ways:

  • If the metadata for the standalone clip is identical to the metadata for the “main” resource the clip has been taken from, it is communicated using the ClipDetailcomposite with the ClipType set to StandaloneClip. The record company or distributor may then communicate a Deal to provide terms and conditions under which the DSP may make available the clip to consumers. This Deal shall point to the clip’s TechnicalResourceDetailsReference.

  • If the metadata for the clip is not identical to the metadata for the “main” resource the clip has been taken from (if, for example, the title of the clip is augmented by a subtitle marking it as a clip), the clip shall be communicated in its own SoundRecording or Video composite and referenced from a Release composite of type ClipRelease. Any terms and conditions for such a Clip Release can be communicated as described in Clause 6.2.

  • The SoundRecording or Video composite containing the clip and the SoundRecording or Video composite containing the “main” recording shall be marked as being related to one another using RelatedResource composites with a type of HasClip and IsClipFrom, respectively. This approach also necessitates giving the clip a ResourceId that differs from the ResourceId for the “main” recording.
