For an economic realisation of future asset management systems based on online archives working in a global network structure the right course shall be set. Therefore already during the digitisation and capturing process of single carrier archives the registration of relevant metadata attention shall be paid besides the re-recording of sound and video data. The description of sound and video content, their technical quality and status information are also important as the situation of rights and an unique material identifier for a world-wide unique identification of source material. In addition the continuous gathering of metadata shall accompany the audio and video material on the road and platform independent file formats as the BWF and the MXF are needed.
