IEC 62356-1:2003 specifies the format for the recording of Type D-11 compressed pictures, four channels of AES3 data and associated data which form helical records on 12,65 mm tape in cassettes. This standard also defines the helical track record parameters, the content and format of the longitudinal records and the cassette physical specifications. This bilingual version (2013-07) corresponds to the monolingual English version, published in 2003-12.
