PBCore Instantiationizer

AudioVisual Preservation Solutions is releasing a draft of their tool PBCore Instantiationizer in the form of an XSL file (with dependencies of mediainfo and xsltproc) and as a simple ready-to-use Mac application.

**New Version 1.2 Available**
The update of the PBCore Instantiationizer tool to version 1.2 presents refinements that improve usability and user control. The core of the tool has been updated to support the most recent version of MediaInfo, 0.7.33. See the MediaInfo change log at http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/Log for further details. Version 1.2 also offers better options for user-defined levels of verbosity returned by annotations, now allows for return of annotations in the Use field, and has improved design in user interface and dialog boxes.

Download the Mac version of PBCore Instantiationizer 1.2 here.

To use PBCore Instantiationizer simply drag media files onto the application’s icon and PBCore Instantiationizer will generate XML documents next to each input file in the form of a PBCore 1.2.1 instantiation element.
