Overview

An inline Multimedia_record uses BLOB records to hold the data. This is unusual in practice, as it bloats the GEDCOM file. Normal practice is to reference a file or URL.

BLOB BINARY_OBJECT:=

A grouping of data used as input to a multimedia system that processes binary data to represent
images, sound, and video.

MULTIMEDIA_RECORD:=

0 @XREF:OBJE@ OBJE                     {0:M}
  ...
  n BLOB                               {1:1}
    +1 CONT <ENCODED_MULTIMEDIA_LINE>  {1:M}
  ...

The attributes are all arrays for the level +1 tags/records.

  • Those ending in _ref are GEDCOM XREF index keys

  • Those ending in _record are array of classes of that type.

  • The remainder are arrays of attributes that could be present in this record.
