VIDEO & AUDIO HEADERS FOR SD & HD Editing timelines and VTR mastering

The following full resolution SD and HD media files in Quicktime movie format are useful headers for addition to the start of a timeline that subsequently will be played to tape. The headers provide 15 seconds of the EBU / Phillips Test Card G, with 5 seconds each for audio identification of both, left and right tracks, followed by 1 minute and five seconds split red/EBU colour bar with a stereo 1KHz reference tone at the digital reference level of -18Dbm and a left channel intermittent audio ident every 3 seconds, followed by a 40 second countdown clock with mute audio except for six sync bloops at -20 to -15 seconds before programme start. The last four seconds of the countdown are black and mute.
