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.
